Product Description
PotatoFinger Potato Chips are more than just delicious. They have attitude! They're sassy, fresh and appealing, just like the people who enjoy them. Cooked "old school"--thin and crispy, but with no hydrogenated oils or trans fats--PotatoFinger Potato Chips are a new twist on the classic chip, and a healthier alternative to other snacks.
It All Starts with the Perfect Potato
PotatoFinger potato chips are made from natural, authentic chipper potatoes. Chipper potatoes are smaller and rounder than baking potatoes, and with less starch and lower sugar. They require a warm, moist climate to yield the highest quality. (A high starch potato turns brown when baked.) During the regular growing season, we use Atlantis potatoes freshly harvested from fields in the eastern US, starting in Florida, ending in late fall with harvests from Ohio. During the winter months we use Snowder potatoes from a greenhouse in Michigan. The potatoes are grown according to US EPA, USDA, and FDA standards. Neither variety is genetically altered.
These Chips Win Awards
In September 2005, PotatoFinger Old School Thin & Crispy Potato Chips was awarded second place in the best snack category in the Best of Atlanta awards at The Atlanta Gourmet Market. Other accolades include Gold Medal Awards from the American Taste Institute of San Francisco and Superior Product Awards from Food Distribution magazine.
About the Brand
Meet the King and Queen of Crunch: Owners Leon and Lainie Stoltz, self-professed potato chip aficionados, proudly distribute PotatoFinger Potato Chips to better grocery stores throughout the eastern United States. A like-minded pair of creative thinkers, they established PotatoFinger in 1999 as an incubator for special products and services that they have brought to market over the years. Their ultimate goal was to launch their own special line of potato chips under the PotatoFinger brand. The debut of PotatoFinger Potato Chips is the happy result of their quest for a chip with the perfect combination of crispness and flavor.
PotatoFinger is based in Decatur, Georgia.
PotatoFinger: How It All Began
PotatoFinger is a favorite nickname from owner Leon Stoltz's childhood years in South Africa. A potato chip snacker from an early age, his mom called him "potato fingers" because of the perpetual layer of potato chip residue left behind on his fingers and hands. As a grown-up, he trademarked his nickname, and began the long search for his very own potato chip recipe to manufacture.
Introducing... Chipponie!

Chipponie |
When PotatoFinger did a search for the right celebrity endorsement of their new potato chip line, they quickly found professional spokesmodel Chipponie and signed her, immediately and indefinitely, to be the "face" of PotatoFinger. Although Chipponie is in high demand for guest slots on several celebrity reality shows, her enthusiasm for PotatoFinger has taken precedence over all of her other projects. She now appears exclusively in promotional work for PotatoFinger. In a recent interview on a well-known late night cable news talk show Chipponie discussed this business relationship at length and summed it up saying "I am sassy. I have attitude. PotatoFinger is an old-school company, distributing chips with attitude! We are a perfect match!"
