Karen Ahn at WonderHowTo recommends putting any stale chips you have to good use as a crispy coating in your recipe. Just crush them all up and use them whenever your recipe calls for crumbs. The salty potato flavour will enhance your dish and you avoid wasting what seem like useless leftovers.

What kind of monster lets their potato chips get stale?
when your wife decides that minimum chips is not enough and buys $5 chips instead and only realsies that the 6 potato cakes, 3 fried dimsims, 2 flake, 2 chicko rolls, 4 onion rings, 8 fish bites is not enough for two adults and third small children………..*ohhh bother*
EDIT: oh like cold, packet chips as in potato crisps, ooops sorry
Yup, we’re talking crisps here. A lot of Aussies call them potato chips for some reason, which causes no end end of confusion/frustration among my UK buddies. 😀
