1. Popchips is not a well known enough brand to deserve its own article on Wikipedia.

2. This reads like an advertisement for the brand instead of encylopedic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.20.110.31 (talk) 23:58, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No reason to delete the article. Your first point, I'd say their recognition from Forbes argues against you as well as the fact that I can buy them at any major retailer in my state. I'm not prepared to argue your second point, but that point argues for a rewrite, not deletion. --71.205.234.192 (talk) 02:24, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is still a crappy article, but I found some more production info to reference. The proprietary "process" is a bit annoying to narrow down, since it seems more that the company simply does not want to reveal a standard process that has been applied to potato flour instead of rice flour. Still does read excessively as an advertisement, but tagged as such where appropriate. – 2001:db8:: (rfc | diff) 05:27, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]


3. Good as a general outline, more information needs to be added. I found a few minor spelling mistakes. The page layout and organization is good. The footnotes and citations are good. Overall I would rate this 7/10, just because not all the information from your other group members is in this article yet.Cylersarah31 (talk) 16:31, 15 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Competitors?

Quaker Oats is making some very similar chips from rice, named "Popped" (formerly "Quakers Rice Snacks"). Should these be mentioned? Wikipedian192 (talk) 06:41, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
