A Walmart I was in locally had Utz chips. Was a regular size bag instead of the tiny lays and similar that are on shelfs now. Regular potato chips. Price was reasonable too for a regular size bag. Pleasantly surprised. The quality of the chip was really good. Not too salty. Nice surprise. Hope Utz keeps things as they are and Walmart keep getting them. And fuck lay's and the rest of them.

Can’t remember the flavor I tried awhile back, probably some version of a hot chip but I found them to be the opposite of what you described, way too salty.

I grew up with Utz chips. They used to be salter, not so much now. I hate that a bag of chips is only filled up halfway now for the same amount of money.

Utz makes a quality product. I really like their unsalted chips as I am on a salt restricted diet.

Utz makes a tasty product and is a nice alternative to some of the other brands.
They were founded in PA and make the products in the state (and maybe other locations as well).
My wife is very involved in supporting (fundraising, awards banquets, etc.) our children’s school activities, sports teams, and other organized interests, and Utz has always been very supportive in providing / donating their products towards the teams and groups.

My wife brought home a bag of their pretzels the other day. I was not impressed.

Lots of Utz eating around here. They are reasonably priced and most all of their flavors are gluten free which is a must around here with 2 celiacs.

I'm not a potato chip guy but let me tell you I can eat a whole bag of these in a few minutes. The standard Mike's Hot Honey Chips for me, they do make an extra hot now too but I haven't tried them.

We only buy Utz chips, it started as protest against the other brands. But now I prefer them.

I have never bought Utz chips, mostly because they seem to cost 2-3x that of "store brand" chips, and even a little more than the "name brands" like Lay's.

This! You taste potato not a boatload of salt.

We have eaten Utz potato chips, but usually prefer kettle-style chips when on sale. But we always buy Utz pretzels, specifically their Sourdough Hards and Sourdough Extra Dark, both are a staple in our house. We used to eat Dots, but burned out on them.

Utz is great. Try the cheeseballs in the jug. They are damn good and addictive.

I get the Utz buttermilk ranch, a Dollar General near me has them. I initatially bought them out of desperation but now I prefer them.

Utz products are great. When living in Pennsylvania we bought a bag of Utz Cheese Popcorn. Down in the family room by the coal stove, found a piece of metal in the Popcorn. Took bag and piece of metal to the store where purchased. Utz called us, "The piece of metal doesn't appear to be from our equipment." Next day Utz truck shows up with Three large boxes of bagged Popcorn. About two weeks later we found a broken buckle on our Boxer dogs collar! Guess he must of done some shaking and the buckle broke and the piece flew into the Popcorn bag.
If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.

Good chips. I'm addicted to their Dark Russets.

I switched to Utz 4-5 years ago. I like their chips and pretzels better than the 'national' brands.
