Re:The Great Japan Potato-Chip Crisis by mistersquid on Sunday April 16, 2017 @07:48PM (#14128284)
I buy imported-from-Japan Kataage [0] potato chips at my local Nijiya market and to my taste these chips are much higher quality than, for example, Kettle brand and Frito-Lay brand potato chips.

Not sure if it's due to the potatoes, but the quality is undeniably (to my taste) higher.

I suspect that Frito Lay would possibly be capable of using higher quality ingredients/making better quality chips if the market demanded it. Perhaps you are in the minority of people who cares enough to notice the difference?
