Questions We Get Asked
And some we made up.
The Chips
What makes you different from every other chip brand?
We fry in avocado oil, use real seasonings, and pledge 1% of every sale to clean waterways. Also we're named Filthy, which is objectively funnier than 'Boulder Canyon' or 'Kettle Brand.'
Are your chips gluten-free?
Yep. Potatoes, oil, seasonings. No wheat anywhere.
Are your chips vegan?
All flavors. No dairy, no animal products, no compromise on taste.
Is avocado oil actually better or is this just marketing?
Both? It's definitely more expensive, which is annoying for us. But it has a higher smoke point, doesn't leave a greasy film, and lets the seasoning shine. Also we can charge more. (Kidding.) (Sort of.)
Are these healthy?
They're chips. Fried potatoes with salt. They're delicious. If you want healthy, eat a carrot. If you want to feel good about the chips you're inevitably going to eat anyway, we're your people.
The Money Part
Where do you ship?
All 50 US states. International coming eventually, but customs paperwork is a nightmare.
How long does shipping take?
3-5 business days. We'll send tracking so you can obsessively refresh.
Do you offer free shipping?
Over $50. Which is like 5-6 bags. You were going to buy that many anyway.
Can I change or cancel my order?
Within 2 hours, yes. After that, your chips are already being lovingly packed. We move fast.
The Mission Stuff
What's a Public Benefit Corporation?
It means we legally can't just chase profit. Our board has to consider employees, community, and environment. Which sounds fancy, but really just means our board meetings involve more guilt.
Where does the 1% actually go?
Organizations protecting waterways and basins, starting with the Jersey Shore. Barnegat Bay. The same water we grew up swimming in. It's personal.
Are you B Corp certified?
We're a PBC now. B Corp certification is in progress. It's a lot of paperwork.
The Weird Ones
Why 'Filthy'?
In baseball, a 'filthy' pitch is one so good it should be illegal. That's the vibe. Plus it's funny to sell clean-ingredient chips called Filthy.
Do you actually care about water or is this marketing?
We're a Public Benefit Corporation. That means caring about water isn't optional—it's legally required. So yes, we actually care. Also one of us grew up on the Jersey Shore and gets emotional about Barnegat Bay.
Can I invest?
We appreciate the enthusiasm, but we're not raising right now. Buy chips instead. Better ROI for your stomach.
Still confused?
Fair. We're a chip company named Filthy that donates to water charities. It's a lot.
