We located reviews of Tostitos Natural Yellow Corn Tortilla Chips in Real Simple, Cook's Country, Eating Well and Taquitos.net. Of these, Real Simple's review is the largest. Taquitos.net covers a huge number of snacks, but reviewers are anonymous, and consumers aren't allowed to post comments.

All the reviews we read are in solid agreement that Tostitos Natural Yellow Corn are the best tortilla chips for nachos. Reviewers say that they have the perfect balance of corn, salt and fat. They're crisp, yet they can support the weight of bean dips or guacamole without bending or snapping. Their only downside, critics say, is that they're a little too big for easy dipping, because they're not quite bite-size. If you're looking for a chip to pair with dips, reviews point to Santitas White Corn Restaurant Style Tortilla Chips (*est. $3 for 16 ounces), which are more compact, a bit lighter and flakier.
