Hello
Welcome in H.C.M.
I have gone through your query regarding red spots on the roof of mouth after eating chips.
I would like to tell you these types of redness in mouth is very common because of engorgement and congestion of palatal mucosa, this type of redness occurs whenever oral mucosa is exposed to-
1- Strong spices & Chillies.
2- Very hot food.
3- If eaten food contaminated.
Considering above most likely chillies of your chips are responsible for that spots.
Regards.
