When choosing crisps for game night, start with the net weight and everyone’s preferences. If tastes vary, two suitable flavours may be a better choice than one strongly seasoned bag. funny-frisch lists a 215-g pack of Chipsfrisch Ungarisch, for example, while ja! and GUT&GÜNSTIG list 200 g packs of paprika crisps. If allergies or specific dietary requirements are a consideration, check the labelling on the packs you actually buy.
If you’re putting one bag on the table to share, the net weight matters more than the size of the bag itself. funny-frisch lists Chipsfrisch Ungarisch at 215 g; the paprika flavours covered here from REWE and EDEKA are both 200 g. If people have different preferences, adding a second flavour can give everyone more choice.
If not everyone likes strong seasoning, you could pair a salted variety with paprika crisps. Chio describes Chips Ready Salted as being made from potatoes, vegetable oils and salt, while funny-frisch Chipsfrisch Ungarisch is a seasoned paprika flavour.
Before sharing, check the information on the pack you’ve bought. Read the ingredients list, highlighted allergens and any ‘may contain’ information for each flavour, especially if someone needs to avoid certain ingredients.
First decide how many bags you want on the table and which flavours would suit your group. Then check the ingredients, allergen information and nutritional details for the specific varieties you’ve chosen.
| What to consider | What to check | Who is it important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Net weight | Compare the weight in grams, the number of bags and the other snacks on the table. | If I’m sharing crisps with other players, I want to plan the amount based on the pack information. For around 37% of consumers, having enough to go round is likely to be the main concern. |
| Flavour | Choose a salted or seasoned variety, and consider adding a second flavour if needed. | If people have different preferences, I want to avoid offering only one strongly seasoned variety. A choice of flavours is likely to come first for around 27% of consumers. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Read the ingredients list, highlighted allergens and ‘may contain’ information on the pack you’ve bought. | If someone needs to avoid certain ingredients, I want to choose crisps based on their current labelling. This is likely to be the most important buying criterion for around 27% of consumers. |
| Nutrition | Compare fat and salt per 100 g across potato crisps; if a Nutri-Score is shown, compare it only within a suitable product category. | If nutrition matters to me when choosing a flavour, I want to compare like-for-like information rather than the packaging design. Around 9% of consumers are likely to prioritise this comparison. |
For planning how much to buy, the net weight is what counts. The products covered here from funny-frisch, Chio, REWE and EDEKA come in packs ranging from 150 g to 215 g.
Compare the weight in grams and consider whether a second flavour would be more useful for your group than a larger amount of the same one.
Paprika and salted crisps suit different tastes. A large bag is little help if some of the group don’t like the seasoning.
If you’re not sure what people prefer, ask them or put a salted variety alongside a seasoned one.
A claim such as ‘vegan’ or ‘gluten-free’ doesn’t automatically apply to every crisp from the same brand or cover every individual allergy. REWE says that ja! Paprika Chips may contain traces of gluten and milk; EDEKA warns that GUT&GÜNSTIG Kartoffelchips Paprika may contain traces of milk.
Before sharing, read the ingredients and allergen information on every pack you’ve actually bought.
funny-frisch lists Chipsfrisch Ungarisch in 150 g and 215 g packs. This paprika flavour could be a good option if your group enjoys that seasoning.
The Crunchips Salted variety covered here offers a salted flavour as an alternative to more strongly seasoned crisps.
Chio Chips Ready Salted is a salted option for groups who don’t want paprika seasoning.
REWE lists ja! Paprika Chips in a 200-g pack, a paprika flavour to consider when planning snacks to share.
EDEKA lists GUT&GÜNSTIG Kartoffelchips Paprika in a 200-g pack.
In December 2025, Lidl listed Snack Day crisps in paprika and salted flavours, both in 200-g packs.
This selection includes salted potato crisps in individual bags or multipacks, as well as one seasoned variety. For game night, consider whether you’d prefer one larger bag, several separate bags or an extra flavour to complement your selection.

An individual bag with a salted flavour, if you’d prefer not to make paprika crisps the main bag for your group. If anyone has a milk allergy, check the labelling on the pack you buy.

The individual bags could be handy if you want to serve salted crisps at different times or in different rooms. This is a multipack, not one large sharing bag; if anyone has allergies, check the labelling on the bags you buy.
No image available
A salted variety to add to the table if you’d like to offer an alternative to seasoned crisps. The individual bag contains less than the 200-g and 215-g packs covered here; check the current labelling if anyone has allergies.

An individual bag of salted crisps if you’d rather add a second flavour than another large bag. For planning how much to buy, the net weight is 150 g; if anyone has allergies, the labelling on the pack you buy is what matters.

A bag of paprika crisps to add to the selection if your group would like a seasoned option alongside a salted variety. This pack contains 150 g; the 215-g pack also listed by funny-frisch is a different size. If you have specific dietary requirements, check the pack you buy.
Whether one 200-g bag is enough depends on the number of players and what other snacks you’re serving. Compare the net weight and, if people have different preferences, consider adding a second bag in another flavour.
Yes. If anyone in your group has allergies or intolerances, check the ingredients, highlighted allergens and ‘may contain’ information on the pack you’ve bought. EDEKA specifically warns that product information may differ from what’s printed on the packaging.
No. These claims apply to the specific variety and don’t answer every question about other allergens or possible traces. Chio labels Chips Ready Salted as vegan and gluten-free; for individual needs, the information on the specific pack remains the deciding factor.
Compare details such as fat and salt on the same basis, for example per 100 g, and check the ingredients list too. According to the Verbraucherzentrale, comparing Nutri-Scores is only useful within the same product category or for products with the same intended use; one score alone can’t tell you which variety is right for your group.
