If ketchup is a vegetable, are potato chips vegetables too?

[Deja Q]

[cprise]

1. They count as veg. if you also have greens and fruit in your diet.

[Merlot]

2. Don't forget that potato chips are DEEP-FRIED

Any reminents of vegetable matter are obliviated by that process.

10. what if it is vegetable oil?

Wouldn't that make potato chips as super vegetable as well? Kind of a double vegetable? :think:

3. IF ketchup is a vegetable THEN potato chips are too. If not, no.

[BlueHandDuo]

5. And ketchup is kind of a super-vegetable...

...because the lycopene in it is more readily absorbable than that in raw tomatoes.

[Me.]

4. Of Course

And you can alternate them with corn chips for variety

[BlueHandDuo]

6. Corn, however...

...is not a vegetable. It's a grain.

8. How about those shoestring potato sticks?

In my local grocery, they are found in the canned vegetable aisle!

Pumpkin pie?
Carrot cake?

11. As a matter of fact, they're "America's Favorite Vegetable"

according to one of the Eastern chip companies that I can't seem to locate right now.
