The user would open a bag of crisps and dump them into part 1: a large colander with large holes. Any crisps too small for dipping would fall through into part 2: a bin for freezing. Kept at a very low humidity this would be a way to preserve the smaller bits.
The colander could be dumped, sans
undippables, back into the bag or a serving bowl. The collection bin would be placed into the freezer. When enough smaller bits were collected they could be warmed up to room temperature still in the dry bin, thus preserving the essential snackiness by preventing condensation-induced sog. Then a flavor packet could be poured on them, they could be further crushed, and enjoyed as "the crumbs" which many people enjoy most.

My hunch is, "too small for dipping" is a more entropic state for crisps than "big enough for dipping", that crisps are fragile, and that the expected number of too-small pieces mixed in with the larger pieces would approach zero only in a frustratingly asymptotic way. |
|
| |
OTOH, actual number-of-pieces is an integer, so maybe that doesn't matter. |
|

//actual number-of-pieces is an integer// Yes the large colander is the problem here. What you need is an indentured servant (slavery is so passé) who will carefully sort through the packet manually, separating the crisps into size-sorted bins. |

I do fear that the freezing part may be problematical, since even in a sealed container there may be enough residual water in the crisps themselves and in the air to cause sublimation / re-condensation problems. The only practical solution I can see here is to scoff the lot as soon as they have been sorted. |

Perhaps they could be produced with the desired dip pre-applied so no further dipping is required? |

Interesting coincidence: [whatrock]'s attempts to spell 'flavoured' correctly for half +/- of HBers DOES remind one of the Kosher symbol. |
|
| |
The 'u' in 'flavoured' obviously provides another receptacle (in addition to the 'v'') for dip. Noice! |

The idea is to have a desiccant packet in with the crisps. |

//desiccant packet// mmm chewy |
