Tortilla chips and gout: which to pick, which to skip

By Patricia Lu & Allan Lu, creators of SuitBite · Updated 2026-09-06

Flavored tortilla chips often carry yeast extract in the seasoning — so we read each label. We read the full ingredient list of 3 tortilla chips and scored each for gout specifically: 2 rate as a pick, 1 to limit or skip, and 1 carry a hidden trigger (HFCS, fructose or yeast extract) we flag by position.

See also how to spot hidden gout triggers on a label and how we score.
