hmmm, the thing is,

i once made potato chips myself, but i cut them thicker?
and bake them. though i've forgotten the temperature used.

it wouldn't be crunchy, but it's quite nice as the 'feeling' of the potato is there. Goes well with tar tar sauce.

Well I ended up not trying to make the potato chips. I got side-tracked with something else. I can't remember what it was though. I do want to try making them eventually though.

Oh yeah sweet potatos are just as good. I once tasted a sweet potato chips sprinkled with cheese powder and dipped in mayo and ketchup, so yummy

What I like about the homemade chips - you can flavor them anyway you want and you can use any potatoes you want. Also - one small potato cut thin gives quite a bit of chips. And to think that you can pay $2.99 - $3.29 for a bag of chips which are equivalent to about 2 small potatoes.

it's cost effective to make your own chips, that's for sure!

I saw this when I was doing my practicum at a certain restaurant. They do not actually slice their potatoes. What they usually do is they use a peeler so that it would be cut to just enough thickness and then have them deep-fried. It takes them about 2 minutes.
