Chips and Pretzels enter the thunderdome. Only one can leave.

It's a steel cage death match between the titans of snack food

Fare thee well, pretzels.

Fare thee well, pretzels.

Do you live in a pretzel desert?

The fuck? Pretzels can go. This is like rutabagas vs carrots.

pretzels can fuck off. Back in middle school the cafeteria had the normal cafeteria and then like the snack shop thing and they sold soft pretzels. I went on a pretzel binge for I don't know how long....pretzels and mustard like everyday and after a while I was done. To this day I can't eat one. I occasionally might buy a bag of hard pretzels like once every couple years.
Regular Lays > any kind of pretzel

Chips run Bartertown.

Pretzels are something I'd eat if there were no other snacks available.

Those are good pretzels, Walter.

Soft pretzels are not really a snack in the way that chips are.
Chips are not a meal in the way that soft pretzels are.

Hard pretzels are snacks and that's what I'd compare to chips, and in doing so, chips...

Pretzels in all of their forms kill chips all day. Although I will polish off a bag of Funyuns in a sitting. Sour cream and cheddar are good too.

Big soft pretzels with beer cheese are analogous to poutine or totchos, not potato chips.

 

[sleewell]

pretzels are good but chips are way better.

I think for this to be apple to apples, it has to be bagged hard pretzels vs chips (which are also going to be bagged, etc) - and in this case it's definitely chips by a mile. I would probably give the nod to good freshly baked soft pretzels over chips, but comparing that to chips just is like comparing swordfish to tuna and-oh-by-the-way-the-tuna's-canned

 

[Denverdave]

Depends on the chips. The only chips I generally eat are tortilla chips (non-flavored). I don't mind pretzels, but I never buy them.

 

[Chicken Man]

Pretzels are to chips as soft pretzels are to potato wedges, where pretzels still lose in all cases.

I take it you mean the US meaning of 'chips'. Which wouldn't make any difference, because I would chose either over pretzels, the most overrated snack in the world.

and simple is still best

We are comparing a fresh soft pretzel with mustard and a beer to a bag of Lays chips?
That sounds about right.

I would take freshly made chips and salsa all day long.
