      Crisps tend to be high in fat and salt, which could be said to be bad for you. If it was a choice between an apple and a bag of crisps the apple would be healthier. The other way of looking at it crisps are tasty and we enjoy eating them, so a few may make a meal more enjoyable. So, on their own no, but a small portion along with a variety of other foods such as veg, starchy foods, lean meat or cheese is not a problem.
