An aligning apparatus for aligning food product chips (6) having a generally curved shape includes a longitudinally extending rib (10) positioned with respect to a chip transport surface (14). As chips (6) are transported along the transport surface (14), they straddle the aligning rib (10) with respective opposed side edges (16) thereof supported on the transport surface. Engagement with the aligning rib (10) causes the chips (6) to become generally aligned with the aligning rib and thus, with each other.
