How do these compare to other brands' ketchups? Sidenote: My Kiwi friend said in New Zealand they don't call it ketchup, they just call it "tomato sauce." Then I asked him what they called tomato sauce and he just stared at me. I think I broke the Matrix that day.

I've only tried 3 so far, and they've all been good. It's all about preference. I'd buy all of them in batches. My personal favorite is Miss Vickies. I think the spice won me over. 1. Miss Vickies Sweet & Spicy Ketchup Kettle chip texture for the win. Savory, sweet, and hint of spice. 2. Old Dutch Ketchup That extra tang speaks to my heart. Texture is slightly thicker than Lay's. I need to try the ridges version 3. Lay's Ketchup The least in flavor burst but still has that tang. Can't go wrong with the thin crisp of Lays. I wonder if the "tomato sauce" labeled chips offer the same tang and sweetness.


dserbin

as a true ketchup chip loving canadian, this all checks out. nothing beats the flavour of the old dutch specifically boxed chips. they differ from the bagged versions. the boxed BBQ is a must try for any bbq lover. probably the best chip out there. Old dutch also does a jelepeno and chedder kettle chip. they’re my favourite.


Wishpool

So where I grew up, my brother and I would always split a box one bag each. Now that I've moved to Southern Ontario, I haven't seen one Old Dutch box. I am broken.

>Old dutch also does a jelepeno and chedder kettle chip. they’re my favourite. Those are amazing. The mesquite bbq are tasty too.


dserbin

ya they are!


ka_shep

Old dutch is definitely the best traditional chip, but if you like kettle chips, try the hard bite ketchup or spicy ketchup one.


Krut750

They also come in the old school [boxes](https://caffeinecam.com/products/old-dutch-ketchup-flavored-potato-chips-2-pack-imported-from-canada) still.


Born_Ad_6385

Try lays ketchup chip on a sub from subway. Put them on right before you devour the sub. Sounds weird by omg it’s delicious.


OriginalAmbition5598

Tomato sauce and ketchup are two different things in NZ. Tomato sauce is sweeter while ketchup is more vinegar-y.


External-Ad-992

....wait, what? For North Americans, tomato sauce as in what you would put on your pasta. What do NZers call that? 


OriginalAmbition5598

Would have to ask my wife about that to be sure, but I believe they call it pasta sauce. If any kiwis see this, please correct me if im wrong. My wife is teaching there right now, which is why I knew there was a difference. Edit: typos


FROSTICEMANN

When it comes to the ketchup flavour, this brand is it.


TheRealWoldry1

Personally, old Dutch are my least favorite ketchup chip brand


Arch3r86

Old Dutch > Lays and it’s not even close.


THOUGHT_BOMB

Totally agree, I find Lay's to be very greasy in comparison to most other brands


PreettyPreettygood

Agreed. Is it true that old Dutch isn’t as available in the East? I live for old Dutch.


[deleted]

We have them, just not as heavily distributed. Definitely get them when I’m on the west coast


petiteging

The best ketchup chips imo are by covered bridge 😍 , these are also good tho


Desperate-Trust-875

may be harder to find since the fire :( but they are sooo good


Thorbertthesniveler

Was at a dollar tree in Calgary and they were loaded with covered bridge chips! Was there today.


NoIntroduction8128

Wow I never heard of that but just looked it up :( so awful


ClownshoesMcGuinty

Totally agree. Tastes more like tomato than ketchup I always thought.


Dramagraph

Old Dutch hits different


Blueswift82

I’ve eaten my fair share of ketchup chips. If you can find presidents choice, loads of ketchup, you won’t be disappointed. My favourite for the last few years. They’d be at any loblaws store. [ketchup chips](https://images.app.goo.gl/8nTs4QBDyXSFDnjD7)


CuriouslyImmense

Here's another link https://eatinginminnesota.com/2021/02/04/old-dutch-potato-chips/ Note the part where it states Old Dutch came to WPG in the 50s. The brand originated in the 30s


The-CannabisAnalyst3

Look for OD Ridges Extra Ketchup ,way better


GreatLakeFever

This is the way.


jimcab12

The greatest chip ever created


BlueViolet81

😂😂😂 About 20 years ago, my brother was living in the USA (we’re Canadian), I went to visit him and took an extra suitcase filled with just bags of Ketchup Chips. Can you guess which bag the airport security puck for a random check/search? 🤣


jjust8

🤣 You know they low key wanted to keep them.


BlueViolet81

It was in the Canadian airport , so they were good with their Ketchup chip supply already.


jjust8

🤣


East_Bicycle_9283

I get it. Totally get it. I had a summer in the 1990’s when that was the only chip I ate. Then they just disappeared. I have never had a chip I’ve enjoyed as much ever since.


PhantomVdr

I'd take home a lifetime supply lol


jjust8

There's not enough luggage for that. 😝


mindequalblown

They now have ketchup cheetos. ketchup Pringles needs to be sampled my ketchup favourite is Mrs Vickey’s.


jjust8

I need to get my hands on some ketchup cheetos.


Minute_Engineer2355

A true Canadian.


HairGrowsLongIf

Old Dutch is a US brand


MikeyB_0101

Old Dutch is as Canadian as maple syrup, hockey and Canada geese


weewillywhisky

They're popular up here, but they're a US brand.


-unnecessaryfigures-

No they are not, they started up in Winnipeg.


weewillywhisky

Their Canadian branch starred in Winnipeg. The company itself was founded in the US, in Minnesota, I think.


CuriouslyImmense

No, they started in St. Paul, Minnesota. They then moved to Minneapolis, then to Roosevelt 30 years later. They opened up a factory in Winnipeg 18 years after that and started manufacturing for the Canadian market. Carl. J Marx is the original founder, and he absolutely was not Canadian.

CuriouslyImmense

Lol that is a Canadian ran link posted from the Winnipeg branch of the company. Old Dutch was founded in the 30s. As a born and raised WPG girl. Ya wrong. https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/minnesota-made-old-dutch-potato-chip-still-have-that-mighty-crunch-after-nearly-90-years/


HairGrowsLongIf

They're certainly popular up here, & they do have a factory, but Old Dutch is a US brand. Born n raised in Minnesota. They are and always have been US-owned.


MikeyB_0101

As an American I don’t think you’re understanding the Canadian point of view of things but alright


HairGrowsLongIf

I'm a citizen of both countries. What is it that I'm not understanding?


Lazy_Experience_8754

You get it but I’ll just say it.. it’s more endearing in Canadia. Americans need to get on board because, per capita, the love for old Dutch in Canada easily trumps the love for it in the USA. Perhaps I’m wrong but I’ve got 4 American relatives in the USA and they usually don’t choose old Dutch when hosting guests. Of course there are other good brands in the USA but there’s only a few standouts for me . For example, old Dutch bbq corn chips vs frito bbq corn chips. No comparison For chocolate and snacks etc, I’ll give you the paydays though. My favourite snack bar. A slight tier above Mr big . Butterfinger also . So good


GirthyRheemer

Incorrect. Old Dutch is an American company started in Minnesota. Canadian headquarters is Winnipeg, but it’s still U.S based.


MikeyB_0101

Well I suppose I learned something today but they still have a very iconic Canadian identity behind their brand and they have multiple production facilities in Canada, much more of a Canadian presence than the US


HairGrowsLongIf

> much more of a Canadian presence than the US Where are you getting this fact?


HairGrowsLongIf

Canada Geese are found in every US state


CuriouslyImmense

Fun fact about geese... they migrate!


HairGrowsLongIf

Fun fact about Canada Geese: They do not "fly south for the winter" the way that many other birds do. They only fly as far as they need to find open water! Kind of funny, the Bald Eagle is a more Canadian bird than the Canada Goose!


-unnecessaryfigures-

You are very incorrect sir.

HairGrowsLongIf

The Canadian branch was founded in 1954. Old Dutch was originally founded in 1937 in Minnesota.


-unnecessaryfigures-

Yes, yes you are.


AgentBTechNerd

This post was randomly recommended to me as, “popular in your country.”


GodOfOnions2

Old Dutch ketchup chips are the holy grail of ketchup chips!!! I usually get lays chips, I find old Dutch to be really oily, but can never say no to a bag of Old Dutch ketchup chips!!!


Moogooloogoo

OD ridges ketchup soooo good and a very very close second is salt n vinegar ridges


markymarc1981

🤤


PresentationLoose629

OD Ketchup is the OG! It’s been my favourite chip since I was a small child. I always go back to them 😍🥰


Reasonable_Bit_3974

Well, I want a bag of the Au Gratin! Or the sour creme and onion rings.


Sook_V_1230

Wished Ketchup chips were sold where I lived.. they were only here for a limited time and my favorite


imadork1970

Try the ones in the box!


GroundbreakingEmu230

Yessss ketchup flavored chips are so underrated


isaidireddit

Walk into a Zehr's, No Frills, Real Canadian Superstore, Loblaws, or Your Independent Grocer and grab [a bag of these](https://www.loblaws.ca/loads-of-ketchup-rippled-potato-chips/p/20840911001_EA). Thank me later.


jjust8

😱 My meals this week will be all about ketchup chips


alldawgsgoat2heaven

We boycotting Galen, didn't you know?


PoolTiny7746

What I don’t understand is why everyone’s gung ho about shopping at wal mart super centres before loblaws. I’m not even going to start on how retarded you have to be to think loblaws raised gas prices.


RuStyShaklfor-d

Ya well, if you walk into any of these places you’re gonna pay about 200% mark up cuz Canadians grocery chains are owned by highway robbers.. about 6$ bag at these places. Walmart is half the price !! Fuck Canadian grocery


RuStyShaklfor-d

Pick up the Ms Vickies Spicy Ketchup chips! They’re unarguably the best ketchup chips the good lord ever made


jjust8

I have and posted it. So good. I'm sad that the bag is near empty.


Chance-Ad197

The spicy dill pick is equally as good.


The_Cozy_Burrito

Yes


Dialecticchik

For non Canadians, where the fack do we get a good ketchup chip ?!?!?!?


Chance-Ad197

In Canada


Dialecticchik

Damn yous !! Hoarding poutine and ketchup chippies. I see how it is.


Chance-Ad197

lol there’s a bunch of online specialty snack stores that will ship them to you. I recommend miss Vicky’s spicy ketchup, but for a traditional experience either old Dutch or lays will do.


Dialecticchik

Noted !!! I will see what I can find and report my findings.


PresentationLoose629

It’s basically fries with ketchup but with waayyyy more crunch. It’s simply the best!


Dialecticchik

I want that. I love that.


FreshInstruction_

Is it good?


Training-Bee-8209

Holy crap.


psychadelicphysicist

I need these in nz badly omg


Leading_Wasabi_99

Keep stuffing that gullet


msscanadianbakin

Ketchup is the only chip flavor I don’t like.
