If fat content is your main consideration when choosing a canteen snack, baked funny-frisch Ofen Chips are worth considering. For the Paprika flavour, EDEKA24 lists 9.2 g of fat per 100 g; the manufacturer’s claim of “60% less fat” is compared with classic potato crisps. If you specifically want potato crisps rather than a shaped potato snack, Lorenz Naturals Leicht fein gesalzen is another option: Lorenz claims 30% less fat than conventional potato crisps and 23 g of fat per 100 g. Check the salt, ingredients and allergen information on the specific pack too.
You’re looking for a crunchy potato snack to enjoy with or after a canteen meal, and you’d consider a shaped snack instead of classic potato slices if it has less fat. For funny-frisch Ofen Chips Paprika, EDEKA24 lists 9.2 g of fat per 100 g.
You want potato crisps with a simple salted flavour, rather than lentil or protein crisps. For Lorenz Naturals Leicht fein gesalzen, the manufacturer lists 23 g of fat and 2.3 g of salt per 100 g, so both are worth comparing.
You want to distinguish between potato-, lentil- and protein-based snacks before buying, or need to check the ingredients and allergen information on the specific pack. The ingredients vary between the snack types mentioned here.
First, decide whether you want classic potato crisps, or whether a shaped potato snack or a lentil-based alternative would also suit you. Then compare the nutritional information and ingredients for the varieties that match your choice.
| Criteria | What to check | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Fat content | Fat per 100 g and the comparison used for a claim such as “less fat”. | If I fancy something crunchy with my canteen meal, fat content is my main consideration, even if it isn’t a classic potato crisp. Fat reduction is likely to be the most important factor for around 50% of consumers. |
| Type of product | The product name and first ingredients; for salted varieties, also check fat and salt per 100 g. | I want potato crisps with a simple salted flavour, and I’m happy to accept a smaller reduction in fat to get them. Around 30% of consumers are likely to prioritise classic potato crisps. |
| Ingredients and allergens | The ingredients list and allergen information on the specific pack; for alternatives, check the ingredients they’re made from too. | If I need to watch out for certain ingredients, the product’s composition matters more than its fat content when deciding whether it’s right for me. Ingredients and allergens are likely to come first for around 20% of consumers. |
A percentage reduction compares a product with a reference. On its own, it doesn’t tell you how much fat the snack actually contains: EDEKA24 lists 9.2 g of fat per 100 g for funny-frisch Ofen Chips Paprika, while Lorenz lists 23 g per 100 g for Naturals Leicht fein gesalzen.
As well as checking the percentage claim, look at the fat per 100 g and consider how much you plan to eat.
Baked Ofen Chips may be shaped from potato powder and starch. The lentil and protein crisps mentioned here use ingredients including lentil flour, so they won’t suit you in the same way if you specifically want classic potato crisps.
Read the product name and ingredients list before comparing fat content across different types of snack.
A reduction in fat says nothing about the salt content or whether a product is suitable for someone with an allergy. For funny-frisch Ofen Chips Paprika, EDEKA24 lists 1.6 g of salt per 100 g; for Lorenz Naturals Leicht, Lorenz lists 2.3 g per 100 g.
Compare the salt figures and, if you have an allergy, check the ingredients and information on the exact pack you plan to buy.
Pack sizes and labelling can vary. Lorenz notes that Naturals Leicht may be sold with different recipes and labelling at the same time.
Before buying, check the pack size, ingredients and nutritional information for the specific version on offer.

Check the ingredients list and allergen information on the specific pack, rather than relying on the type of snack alone. The Federal Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Regional Identity explains that certain ingredients that can cause allergies must be labelled on packaged foods. Which ingredients or precautionary ‘may contain’ statements are relevant depends on the variety.
Only if you’re happy with a different base ingredient. The funny-frisch Linsen Chips described here contain lentil and rice flour; the Protein Chips Paprika Style contain ingredients including lentil flour, maize flour and pea protein isolate. If you specifically want potato crisps, check the product name and ingredients before buying.
