I remember going to a potato chip factory on a class trip when I was in elementary school. I thought it was the neatest thing when they gave us a bag of potato chips. There aren’t many potato chip factory tours anymore but we did find a few. Most of them are in Pennsylvania where you can also see pretzels and other snack foods being made.
