Salt highlighted in amber above 38% of adult daily limit (2.3g), red above 75% (4.5g). All figures calculated from per-100g nutrition.
Kettle Chips Sea Salt contains 500 kcal, 27.5g of fat (2.5g saturated), 57.5g of carbohydrate (0.75g sugar), 4.25g of fibre, 6.25g of protein and 1.25g of salt per 100g.
Kettle Chips Sea Salt is the benchmark flavour in the range: three ingredients, hand-cooked from 100% British potatoes in Norfolk. At 1.25g of salt per 100g it is lower in salt than most standard crisps. A 150g sharing bag delivers 1.88g of salt, 31% of the adult daily limit.
A standard bag (40g) and a sharing bag (150g) contain very different amounts. A standard bag delivers 200 kcal and 0.5g of salt. A sharing bag delivers 750 kcal and 1.88g of salt, 31% of the adult daily limit, from a single product.
This matters because crisps are one of the easiest snacks to eat passively. Opening a sharing bag while watching television, or finishing a grab bag that was opened for a small snack, is common. The table above shows the nutritional impact at each pack size so the difference is visible before reaching into the bag.

Salt
Kettle Chips Sea Salt contains 1.25g of salt per 100g. A standard bag (40g) delivers 0.5g of salt, 8% of the adult daily limit of 6g and 17% of the limit for a child aged 4 to 6 (3g). A sharing bag (150g) delivers 1.88g of salt, 31% of the adult daily limit.
Saturated fat
Kettle Chips Sea Salt contains 2.5g of saturated fat per 100g, 13% of the adult daily guideline of 20g. A standard bag (40g) delivers 1g of saturated fat (5% of the adult guideline). A sharing bag (150g) delivers 3.75g (19% of the adult guideline).
The saturated fat content of 2.5g per 100g is relatively low for this type of snack. Most crisps fried in sunflower oil contain 2 to 3.5g of saturated fat per 100g.
Sugar
Kettle Chips Sea Salt contains 0.75g of sugar per 100g. For most savoury snacks, sugar is a minor component of the seasoning blend rather than a primary ingredient. A standard bag (40g) contains 0.3g of sugar, a negligible contribution to the daily free sugar limit of 30g for adults.
Fibre and protein
Kettle Chips Sea Salt contains 4.25g of fibre and 6.25g of protein per 100g. A standard bag (40g) provides 1.7g of fibre (6% of the adult daily target of 30g) and 2.5g of protein.
Ultra-processed food: what is really in it
Kettle Chips Sea Salt is made from one main component: kettle-cooked potato chips.
A home-made equivalent, prepared in one kitchen from whole ingredients, would use a handful of recognisable components with no additives. These processing aids are used because the brief contact time during industrial frying or baking is insufficient to develop the complex, stable flavours the seasoning provides at scale.
Kettle-cooked potato chips
Select Potatoes, Sunflower Oil, Sea Salt. Three ingredients, batch-cooked in a kettle process for a harder, crunchier texture than continuous belt-fried crisps.
Looking at the ingredient list tells a different story from just the headline numbers. The additives and processing aids give this product its consistent flavour at industrial scale.
Processing (NOVA classification)
Kettle Chips Sea Salt falls into NOVA group 4, ultra-processed food. The NOVA classification system groups foods by the extent and purpose of the processing involved. Group 4 covers products formulated from substances derived from foods plus additives, with little or no whole food recognisable in the final product. This classification applies to almost all commercially produced flavoured crisps and snacks, regardless of whether they are marketed as baked, hand-cooked, natural or healthier.
