I knew a girl a couple of years ago who had worked for Frito Lay at some point. She said that a regular bag of potato chips that sells for $2.99 (or so) cost them about 30 cents to make. Only about one potato goes into a bag. Of course there is sales, marketing, and distribution, but still, they are making a HUGE profit! I just bought a 10# sack of potatoes for $2.49 a couple days ago, and I could make several dozen bags of potato chips out of those if I had the equipment.
