Look no further.
For price, quantity, quality; there’s no point looking beyond ALDI for tortilla chips. These chips come in both “restaurant” and round styles. They taste good. They come in a 13 ounce bag. They’re $1.19. They taste slightly salty. They hold up to salsa.
They’re there every time I go. That’s the most important thing for me. I used to buy “tortilla” chips at Trader Joe’s. Trader Joe has a large variety of chips, some a little unusual. However, once I found a chip I liked, there was a high probability on my next visit to Trader Joe’s, the chip was no longer on the shelf. So now, at ALDI, the same chip is there (in the same location also) all the time. I may miss out on the variety, but it’s really nice to be able to repeatedly find something I can buy without going on a search and rescue mission.
The price is right also. With the price of branded tortilla chips seemingly tied to spot crude oil prices, it’s nice to find some realistic prices for things as simple as chips. After all with a bag of branded chips sometimes going for between $3 and $4, they are as expensive (or more) than a pound of beef. That’s not right especially when you start thinking that to produce that pound of beef, the cow eats at least 10 times the amount of corn that’s in the chips.
While you’re picking up the chips, check out the salsa next to it. It’s not the best, but does double duty as both salsa and pasta sauce (huh?).
Calories about 145/1 ounce Price $1.19, per 13 ounce bag

Newcomer this site. Discovered Aldi’s Clancey’s tortilla and potato chips about a year ago. They are all we have eaten (chip-wise) since. Great taste, always available, excellent price. Other name brands do not measure up to these.

Does Clancy make any tortilla chips without salt for those of us who love the chips, but can’t have the salt?

I don’t know where all these ridiculous comments are coming from–likely from rival competitors. I have eaten Clancy’s chips for years and they have been tasty, sanitary having the perfect degree of crunch and taste better than the Frito Brand. All chips are inspected and taste tested for quality as part of standard manufacturing procedure. Clancy’s brand chips are a bargain offering quality and value. Gimme a break. Sound like a good deal of the comments come from people who perhaps don’t practice good oral hygiene and now they want to blame food? Smh.

Thanks for adding your comments. For anyone having a bad experience with anything ALDI, or any other company, the best thing to do is take the issue back to the store manager. Also writing the company further helps insure the issue is addressed in the future. For ALDI here is their customer contact URL,

Long ago, I had a Clancy’s chip which was hard, and I broke a tooth. Aldi’s insurance payed to have my tooth fixed. Aldi stands behind their chips. I loved Aldis then and I love shopping there today. They are special, and so are Clancy’s chips. I am eating some as I write. Aldi is a wonderful store. I get over 90% of my grocerys from them. I am listed on this page. I am Marvin P. Callahan

First, I have no relationship with ALDI. This is my personal approach. Unless a product label states the GMO content, assume GMO ingredients have been used.

GMO, yes or no? We LOVE our Aldi’s and want to give them lots of money, but we must know, about the GMO!!! Somebody get Aldi’s HQ on the line. I know in Germany they are very fussy about what goes into their products there. So I am counting on Aldi’s to give me the good stuff, pure, fresh, delicious like we have come to expect on two continents. Corn chips are not very popular (big bags) in Bavaria, it seemed when I lived there. Maybe they are now. A Bavarian once told me that corn is pig food, LOL. Little Salad Bar Artichoke garlic salsa and Clancy’s White Tortilla Big Scoops are FANTASTIC if you are gluten free/lactose free. So happy about Aldi’s new GF campaign and the holiday GF recipes!!!!!

Got ALDI HQ online and posted their reply
here
.
My interpretation of their reply and a brief regulation review is that, unless the product is labeled for non-GMO content or is labeled as “USDA Organic”, there may be GMO contents in the product. Unfortunately, we’ll have to assume there could be GMO ingredients used in the chips.
I guess we’ll have to wait for the U.S. to catch up with the
EU
for GMO ingredient tracking and product labeling before we’ll know for sure the GMO content of our food in the U.S. It’s an issue that goes beyond ALDI and affects most other grocery retailers here also.

I don’t care about GMO stuff.
What I don’t like about their chips is all the salt! It’s insane! We’ve thrown out bags before because they were WAY too salty. This is from someone who loves salt; I add salt to quite a bit of my food.
Their pretzels are the same. My wife just made some chocolate dipped pretzels with them. They are not edible; WAY too salty!
I’m not talking about “too much sodium”. I mean raw, granular, salt directly on the surface of these products. Look at the bottom of the bag; it’s white with salt. I’m glad this stuff is so cheap but it would cost even less to make it if they didn’t use crazy amounts of salt.
The fake Funyuns onion ring things are gross too. I liked the taste but they make me sick! No, I’m not eating too much of them. Just a couple hand fulls and I feel sick. Tried two different bags in a month; same result.
We’re going to stop buying this crap; it’s just gross! Let alone how unhealthy this amount of salt is.

What I understand that 90% corn in the food chain is genetically modified (GMO). So real questions should be of important concern, apart from taste, if the Clancy’s Tortilla chip Bag says “organic” does it mean non-Gmo or not. GMO is under lot of criticism lately. So be aware!
