Yes, potato chip bags can explode at high altitudes due to changes in atmospheric pressure. As the bag ascends, the lower external pressure allows the air inside the bag to expand, potentially causing it to burst. This is particularly common in sealed bags that are not designed to accommodate pressure changes. To prevent this, manufacturers often use modified atmospheres or leave some space in the bag.
