Potato Chip Boss Defends Snack Against Health Critics
Thomasson, head of Thomasson’s Potato Chips Co. in Elyria, argues his chips are not junk food, citing natural shortening and grandfather's methods. He notes modernization from hand to machine production in the 1970s, discusses density effects on bag weight, and cites a 1981 Michigan State study suggesting salted snacks can fit into a balanced diet.
