Notes
Prior to Piattos chips coming on the Philippine market one would have trouble recalling even a somewhat decent locally made potato chip. Predecessors like V-Cut were very uneven products often with overcooked burnt chips filling half the bag . To get edible potato chips one had to rely on imports—and shoestring potato snacks like Pik-Nik seemed to make up most of those. Piattos was a distinct improvement and became a less expensive alternative to imported Frito-Lay or Pringles chips, although probably still not a satisfying substitute for those who like larger or rippled potato chips. For them the newer potato chips from Oishi might be a better alternative. Actually Spuds, which like Piattos are manufactured by Universal Robina, would be my first recommendation, but that line seems to have been phased out since I don't see them in supermarkets anymore. It seems the premium potato chip market in the Philippines still isn't that large.
