How very patriotic of Terra to introduce a red, white, and blue chip medley they call Stripes and Blues. They are much healthier than the Lays chips I ate as a kid since they are made with 3 kinds of harvested veggies, not just your average potato. The red chips are made from sweet potatoes, the blue chips are made from blue potatoes, and the striped chips are striped beets.

These krinkle-cut chips are made out of my favorite root veggies - delicious sweet potatoes and bold, beautiful beets.

One cup of zucchini provides about 15 percent of the recommended daily intake for vitamin C and 10 percent of vitamin A.
