Flavor enhancers like INS 627 and INS 635 often found in packaged chips. These additives, known as disodium guanylate and disodium inosinate respectively, can enhance taste but might not be suitable for everyone. While they are considered safe for general consumption by food safety authorities, they can affect eating behaviors by increasing the palatability of foods, which might lead to overeating or increased cravings for salty, savory snacks.

Opt for packaged chips that are baked rather than fried, made with simple ingredients, and lower in sodium and artificial flavors.
