The chips are Xochitl blue corn chips — organic, no preservatives, no cholesterol, no trans fats, no GMO.
Not bad.
I picked up a bag on a recommendation that they are among the highest rated corn chips, but, honestly, for the price — about twice typical corn chips — they don’t impress.
They are very thin, however, which means a one-pound bag contains a lot of chips, and, when you’re dipping them in cheese, the chip-to-cheese ratio nicely favors the cheese.
Mmm … cheese.
Speaking of, I used a Serious Eats cheese sauce recipe that’s pretty good. (Tip: If you’re careful, you can make that work in the microwave.)
Overall: Recommended; would eat again.
I bought a bag of the yellow corn ones on a lark because they were on sale and I thought they would be good for nachos. They were excellent for nachos and had a delicious flavor. Like you, though, I thought they were a bit on the pricey side.

I actually tried both the blue corn and the yellow corn. Maybe my palate is insufficiently advanced, but I detected very little difference.
