Salt dissolved in vinegar creates a mild solution of hydrochloric acid, the same acid our stomachs produce to help us digest food.

However, the vinegar (acetic acid) is applied to the chips in a crystalline, powdered form -- so the salt and vinegar do not combine there. Only after contacting liquid (such as saliva) can the compounds combine. Therefore, technically, the only acid that is on salt and vinegar crisps, or chips, is the crystalline form of vinegar.

Still, in crystalline form, the acetic acid is very potent. Eating a large number of chips without drinking something or wiping one's mouth can be damaging to the mouth and lips. Otherwise, they are quite harmless and tasty.
