Bottom Line
Ruffles Original 8.5-ounce bags remain a go-to option for fans of consistently crunchy, salty chips that pair well with dips and meals. However, if you're picky about salt levels or are nostalgic for the older recipe, you might find this version a bit disappointing in flavor and quality. For those seeking a similar experience with dependable taste, Ruffles still delivers, but keep an eye out for deals or consider trying alternate brands if you want something less salty or more flavorful.
