If you turn it upside down to open it, won't the flavor go to the top then? Maybe the trick is to open it from the front of the bag somewhere near the bottom and eat from there. Also, it seems that flavor and "salt" might be getting used interchangeably here.

I wasn't aware that flavor was a separate object from the potato chip which had the potential to be affected by gravity.

It depends what flavor's viscosity or terminal velocity might be. How permeable are the chips to its falling? I say that billions of dollars of research money must immediately be diverted to this project, to ascertain the properties of "Flavor."

I purposely open my bags of chips from the top but I dont know why and nothing I have read in this thread has answered that question.

Why do people open the bag from the top? Does it realy matter?

I think we should be more concerned by the amount of chips we get in each bag, I think we pay more for the air in there.
