Correlation Between Preparation Method of Chips and Sodium Content: A Study on Baked vs. Regular

This project investigates the correlation between the preparation method of potato chips (baked vs. regular) and their sodium content. Students independently collected data on sodium levels from various brands and flavors of potato chips available at local grocery stores, ensuring a comprehensive analysis by including nutritional information from manufacturers' websites. Results indicate that baked chips tend to have higher sodium levels compared to their regular counterparts, suggesting a significant relationship between preparation method and sodium content.
