Terra Chips Sweets & Beets = YUM!

August 24, 2007

I took a flight on JetBlue last week and was loving their Terra Blue Chips. When I went to the health food store to pick some up, I came upon Terra's Sweets & Beets.

These krinkle-cut chips are made out of my favorite root veggies - delicious sweet potatoes and bold, beautiful beets. Sweets & Beets chips offer a hearty crunch, with a robust burst of sweet goodness.

Want to know what they're made with? The ingredients are simple - sweet potatoes, beets, canola oil and/or safflower oil and/or sunflower oil. That's right - no salt, no hydrogenated oils, no sugar or corn syrup (many a chip has this), and nothing but veggies and oil. I will happily recommend these Terra chips for a snack any day.

Want to see what they really look like? How about the nutritional info? Then read more

Serving Size	1 oz (16 chips)
Calories	150
Total Fat	9g
Saturated Fat	.5g
Cholesterol	0mg
Sodium	5mg
Carbs	15g
Fiber	1g
Sugar	0g
Protein	2g

Can you believe that? The serving size is pretty big compared to some other chips (Pico de Gallo), and there's no sodium, no cholesterol, and no sugar. I love it! These are a much healthier snack than say those Pita Chips I was tricked into buying (damn advertising), because these are made of actual vegetables instead of crappy enriched wheat flour. These Sweets & Beets could be my new favorite thing.

I would like to suggest another great chip that my mom found! They are called Veggie Crisps, are by Snyder's of Hanovers (although it doesn't say so on front...) they have two flavors, regular and tomato basil. They have 0 trans fat, 0 saturated fat, and are D-E-L-I-S-H!!!!! I have only tried the reg veggie flavor, but they include tomato, spinach and potato...and not only do they come in a reg bag, but also in 100 calorie servings! I get the latter so i don't get carried away!

Yummy I love terra chips!! You know NWA doesn't serve ANY food at all anymore?! If I see these I'll definitely have to pick up a bag :)

If they're made with sunflower oil then most likely most of the fat is monosaturated fat - which are good for your heart and protect against heart disease. I love the plain terra chips that are just olive oil and herbs... yum! And usually I don't like chips. but I love those terra ones.
