What's another salt snack gone sweet you'd have to try? Chocolate potato chips! Two of the ultimate junk foods together combined in one savory and sweet masterpiece of a snack! Who knew mixing the two together would work so well? It always was that chips are great to snack on first, then a chocolate bar would prove to be quite the dessert afterward. But somehow, someone got the bright idea to melt the said chocolate bar and drizzle it all over the potato chips.

Speaking of pretzels, this classic snack is also a sweet and savory option in of itself. At least, the pastry kind that is. Baked pretzels are bread-like pastries that are ultimately salty in taste. However, that may change depending on what you dip your pretzel into. Because although it's salty, it becomes quite the sweet stuff when you dip it into salted caramel or melted chocolate. Not to mention peanut butter as well. But if you want it savory, a nice cheddar cheese dip or sour cream will totally hit the spot. Ultimately, for your own pleasure, you can use all of these dips at the same time!
