> at that point just eat chips.

Calories are not created equal.

The seed oils in chips are a blinding differentiator alone.

Other contaminants often make chips a much worse choice.

Unless, this being an international forum, you meant “hand cut potato”, not potato crisps - those are a little harder to compare.

In terms of weight, yes it is calories in calories out. Anything else is fat cope.

And I mean potato chips as in crisps. I mean like Lays.

What if I look like Michael Phelps?

> In terms of weight

Haven’t you ever wondered what the swelling is above the eyes, and in the head in general, of the people on shows like “My 600 Lbs Life”?

I’ll give a hint: it’s not fat. The head doesn’t really store fat like that. It has to be something else.

The “something else” is my concern, here.
