How each score was set
Usability 4.8 /10
From published features and owner comments · not a lab test.
- Label transparency5.0/10
- Three ingredients and allergen-style answers (nut free, dairy free, gluten free but not certified) are published; the nutrition panel, serving counts and a country line were not readable.
- Testing and sourcing4.0/10
- Corn is described as certified organic with no certifier named; the finished chips are not fully organic and non-GMO is stated without a certificate; no lab results.
- Taste and prep5.0/10
- Seven flavors, a stated shelf life of about 120 days and a 2-bag size to try are published; storage advice was not read.
- Price per serving and billing4.0/10
- Large per-bag cost, 20% subscription saving with skip or cancel, but no refunds on food and a free-shipping line that differs between the banner and the policy.
- Support and owner reports6.0/10
- Email contact, a replacement route within 7 days with a lot-code photo, and Amazon buyers at 3.9 stars, some noting crushed chips.
