A crunchy, salted corn-based chip made from ground corn dough and fried until crisp. It delivers a robust corn flavor with a toasty aroma and a firm shatter that holds up to hearty dips; common uses include scooping dips, crushing for toppings or coatings, and adding crunch to casseroles, and it is sold as curls, scoops, or wide strips.

Corn chips developed in the United States in the early 20th century from nixtamalized corn dough snacks related to tortilla chips. Modern production extrudes or presses masa-like dough, slices it, and deep-fries it before salting; they are staples in American and Tex-Mex snacking and convenience cooking.
