Popchips

There are many times when we just want to snack. Eating chips is something that just about everyone loves to do but finding one that is delicious and healthy has not always been easy. Many of the chips that are on the market contain oils, preservatives, artificial colors and artificial flavors. There really is not much to the chip that is natural or real. Snacking has been a past time for many years, but what if there was a way to get your snacking fix and still be able to eat food that is good for you. PopChips have come to answer the snackers call.

Keith Belling and Pat Turpin realized that eating chips was not always socially accepted because of the greasy handshakes that soon ensue. They knew that there had to be a way to have a delicious chip without having to deal with the grease that came from the typical fried potato chip. They decided immediately to make a better chip than what had been available for years. They wanted to create a chip that not only tasted better but also that was also better for you. They found that the chips could be "popped" rather than fried or baked. Thus, the creation of PopChips had arrived.

PopChips is determined to give people the ability to snack whenever and wherever they choose without having to worry about a greasy mess or unhealthy ingredients. The company thinks that ease of access is what makes PopChips so amazing. A nutritious and delicious snack can be as easy as opening a bag. They want their consumers to never feel guilty about eating a whole bag of PopChips. Guilt is not needed because the snacks are filled with nutritious, healthy ingredients and taste anything but healthy.

PopChips are made from real potatoes. Typical chips are fried in oil or baked in the oven. When chips are fried they get very greasy and are not healthy at all. Baked chips are supposed to be healthier for you. Potatoes are cut into very thin slices and then baked for an extended period in an oven. While this does lead to a healthier chip, it does not improve the taste. No one wants to eat a chip that tastes like cardboard regardless of how healthy they are for you. PopChips decided to make their version of a chip by first making potato kernels. The potato is reduced to the size of a grain of rice or a popcorn kernel. The kernel is then put under extreme pressure and heat. The combination of heat and pressure then makes the kernel pop and PopChips are born. Popping the potato kernel leads to a much healthier version of a chip and requires no unhealthy ingredients to reach the end result, unlike typical chips.

The only oil that is used on PopChips is canola, safflower and/or sunflower oils. The oils are used when the PopChips are seasoned. All of the oils are non-gmo and non-hydrogenated which means that they are a healthier oil. There are no Trans fat, artificial colors, artificial flavors or preservatives in PopChips either. PopChips has also received certification to be designated as a gluten-free product, which means they really can be enjoyed by anyone. They really are revolutionizing the way we think about chips. They have catered to just about any need. Some of their chips are vegan friendly, all are kosher, none contain nuts and all are healthier than any chip that is on the market.

PopChips are available in a variety of flavors all of which contain only 120 calories per serving with only 4 grams of fat. Every serving of PopChips packs a ton of flavor and they only have 19 grams of carbohydrates. The all-natural flavors that are available are Original, Sour Cream & Onion, Sea Salt & Vinegar, Barbeque, Parmesan & Garlic, Sweet Potato, Jalapeno, Chili Lime, Cheddar and Salt & Pepper. Every bag of PopChips taste delicious and will leave you feeling satisfied and without the guilt that comes with regular potato chips.

Opening a bag of PopChips for the first time does take a little finesse because they are sealed very well to keep the PopChips as crispy and fresh as possible. When trying to open the bag for the first time you need to grab the bag at its top. Pinch the back and front of the bag in the center and pull. If this does not get the bag to open, you can try to grab the seam that is on the back of the bag and pull it away from the bag. One of these two methods should be able to help you get into your delicious bag of PopChips. You will be happy that they are sealed so well when you taste how fresh and delicious they are.
