Have you ever opened a bag of chips and thoughts, why is there so much empty space? Did I just pay for mostly air with a side of chips? You are not alone! For years, I've thought I was getting ripped off with each delicious bag of chips. Today, I want to find out if that is true and I am starting with the biggest culprit of them all - Doritos!
Disclaimer: At 11:56, the Breakage Rates for the More Chips Bag and the Average Bag are accidentally swapped; the More Chips Bag Breakage Rate is actually 79.8%, and the Average Bag Breakage Rate is 74.9%.

Hey Theorists! In the video at 11:56, the Breakage Rates for the More Chips Bag and the Average Bag are accidentally swapped; the More Chips Bag Breakage Rate is actually 79.8%, and the Average Bag Breakage Rate is 74.9%. Sorry for the mix up!

The most traumatic time for the bag is actually when you put them on the shelf or reposition them there and as a store worker let me say that there is a lot of pressure to put as many bags on the shelf as we can (because they come to us in boxes and we can't store partially filled boxes in the back so they gotta go somewhere) or move all of them around quickly when "facing" the isle.

The math and visuals at the beginning is extremely off. At 5:43 the pie chart says that 33.1% of the chips in the bag are unbroken, but the slice seems closer to 20%. Also with the estimation for the number of unbroken chips, 33 is not 33.1% of 133. It's 24.8% (which lines up with the chart's slice), and 33.1% of 133 is actually 44.

Excuse me, but have you heard of Pringles, and their innovative way of stacking chips/crisps/crackers/puffs/fries on top of eachother? Biscuits with filling already use cardboard for protection, so even thin chips/crisps/crackers/puffs/fries companies could use that to deliver neatly-stacked produce to the customers.

Pringles packaging works great for Pringles. Specifically Pringles.. But any chip which is not *perfectly* uniform and stackable would suffer from tube packaging. Any variations in shape, size, or texture would cause the chips to break themselves with even mild jostling.

Tip for getting "less" crumbs in your chip bags. Open the bag from the bottom! I worked in grocery store shipping and even there the chips are always oriented the same way. By opening the opposite end the powder and smaller chips with fall back through the big ones. You eat the crumbs naturally with the bigger chips. Results in less loss if you won't eat chip dust. Learned this from my ex and this is the best thing to come from that relationship.

Hey MattPatt. As a former fritolay employee I can actually shed some ever deeper info for ya. At frito lay they tell the merchandisers to pack out the shelf as much as possible. They pack the bags in cases of doritos in cases of 7 bags. In a cardboard box. And stack them up to 6 ft high when they ship them through the trucks. Where most of the chips getting crushed is in the shelfing process when we had to literally pack them so tightly on the shelf 80% of the time the chips get crushed.

I wish this was done with a different chip other than Doritos. I've never had an issue with the air to chip ratio with Doritos, they've always seemed to be packed to an acceptable degree. Now something like Lays would be a real test. I open up a bag of Lays and maybe 25-35% of the bag has chips in it. Maybe you'd get the same results from the test, but it really feels like you should be able to fit another handful or two of chips in a Lays bag and not have too big of an issue.
