    Popchips are the best! No grease and great taste. Who could ask for more?

    Popchips are the best and one of the healthier items you can get in the “chips” isle. You can’t go wrong with Popchips.

    Fell in love with Popchips after getting samples at Cupcake Camp LA. FYI: Ralph’s carries the small bags, on sale for $1each! Time to stock up!

    I do have to say that Popchips stuffing the ballot box so hard is taking all the fun out of Snack Madness.

    well it happens every year Spam… i forget who it was during the Fast Food Bracket last year, but it happens.

    i must say i’ve never tried a popchip. i’ve seen them but have never been compelled to buy them. when i buy a chip i don’t go for healthy. pringles it is for me.

    Try popchips once and you will become a fan forever! Go Popchips!

    No Stuffing going on (except Popchips into peoples mouths), this is truly a better chip. Once you try it you will agree. and they have a huge Twitter and Facebook following so probably more aware consumers therefore more votes. I’m a fan of Pringles also, but popchips is better.

    @spam – stuffing the ballot box would be one person voting many times (I have a system set up to prevent that). If popchips has lots of people they can motivate to vote through social media, that’s not really ballot stuffing, just loyal fans. Although Pringles has mounted a huge comeback, looks like the popchips run may be over.

    Great tasting, healthy snack option! …no need to compromise!

  • 14 Girls Prep PTA // Apr 7, 2011 at 11:17 am

    Delicious and light…perfect after-school snack for healthy little girls.

  • 15 Eric // Apr 7, 2011 at 11:18 am

    If you have not tried Popchips you don’t know what’s popping!!!

  • 16 JP's Best Bud // Apr 7, 2011 at 11:33 am

    These are the most amazing snacks ever they are so addicting..cant eat just one and good for you too!

  • 17 Jeff // Apr 7, 2011 at 11:52 am

    @Spam, How asking friend to vote stufing the ballot. There is the possibility that the friend we tell, actually liking Pringles better and voting for them. Also, I found out about this from Popchips facebook page, there is nothing wrong with Popchips telling their fans about this, and asking them to vote. Pringles has a facebook page and guess what? They are doing the SAME THING. So Popchips is not doing anything that Pringles is not doing as well. Its great PR and each company is working to try to get each one the winner!.

  • 18 Jeff // Apr 7, 2011 at 11:55 am

    Pringles has over 11 million followers, and popchips has 113,000 followers. Now I ask you. Since this is such a close race.. Who has the more avid followers? :-)

    Popchips taste like chips without the oil and they have some great flavors BBQ my favorite.

    Other non oil products, tast bland, kind of like hospital food!

  • 20 Kelly Baker // Apr 7, 2011 at 12:13 pm

    How is this actually a competition? It’s popchips all the way for a million reasons (taste, flavors, quality of ingredients, non-greasy fingers, popped not fried, bag vs. can and on and on). Plus, I don’t trust anyone with a moustache, so the creepy Pringles cartoon guy loses it for them automatically. ;)

  • 21 Kristi // Apr 7, 2011 at 1:05 pm

    I knew Popchips would defeat Pringles! Love Popchips!!

  • 22 carissa // Apr 7, 2011 at 2:30 pm

  • 23 Sydney // Apr 7, 2011 at 4:44 pm

    Popchips are the most awesome thing in the history of snacking!

  • 24 Tim // Apr 8, 2011 at 5:25 pm
