" I conduct and write the monthly taste tests that appear in our Good Food section each month. Sadly, I&amp;#039;m not allowed to participate in the tastings, since I have to conduct them and, most importantly, having done the research and spoken to the company reps, I might be biased. I don&amp;#039;t mind standing back and letting the volunteer tasters and rest of the food department do the judging and voting. My goal is to make sure the tests are as unbiased and as accurate as possible, even if that means not getting to put in my two cents or to discover my own personal favorite brand of whole wheat pasta or multigrain cracker. However, every once in awhile there comes a taste test that makes me downright giddy/sad to not be participating, such as June&amp;#039;s taste test of healthier potato chips. I&amp;#039;ve written before about what a salty snack fiend I am and the savory crunch of a good potato chip is something I can rarely resist. So while I couldn&amp;#039;t officially rate all 19 samples, I happily helped myself to the leftover product. We only tested plain or sea salt varieties, since those are the most common &amp;quot;flavor&amp;quot; of reduced fat and low fat chips, but along the way, I encountered a couple of noteworthy reduced fat varieties of my hands-down favorite flavor of potato chip: salt and vinegar. Salt and vinegar chips are pretty polarizing. Some purists cringe at the thought, while others, like me, have a Pavlovian response to it. Here are my favorites:     Boulder Canyon Red Wine Vinegar Potato Chips ($2.49 - $3.99 for 5-oz. bag): These delightfully tangy chips have the perfect thickness and texture. Super crunchy without being tooth-breakingly hard, they also possess a hint of floral sweetness that beautifully complements the vinegar. While they&amp;#039;re not explicitly labeled reduced fat, this company&amp;#039;s entire line of potato chips contain a third less fat than the average potato chip. Unfortunately, I&amp;#039;ve been known to inhale half a bag by myself in one sitting, thereby negating the health benefits of being reduced fat.   Kettle Brand 40% Reduced Fat Sea Salt &amp;amp;amp; Vinegar Krinkle Cut Potato Chips ($3.49 for 8-oz. bag): New to the market this month, these crinkle cut treats are even crunchier due to not only their ridges, but also their thicker cut. These are the salt and vinegar chips for the real salt and vinegar fans out there. Tongue-tinglingly tart with just the right amount of salt, these chips pair perfectly with a chicken salad pita.
