Pink & Posh Goes Pop!

A little while back, I professed my love for all types of snacks, healthy snacks since I am trying to poshify my figure.  Soon after I listed my favorite healthy snack alternatives I was introduced to Pop Chips, a 100-calorie “popped” potato snack. I really should go back and add Pop Chips to my list since they are definitely my new faves, but I figured that since they were so good, they deserved their very own post. That and the fact that we’ll be handing them out at the Type-A Mom Conference next week and I wanted to be sure that everyone was aware of the delightful treat they are in for.

“In our pursuit of the snackers’ holy grail, delicious and healthier, we discovered popping. We’re able to simultaneously keep all of the flavor in, while keeping half the fat of fried chips out. Since we do all the popping ourselves, we can make sure of that. Our quality control mantra? If it doesn’t taste good, it’s not a snack, of course.” www.popchips.com

I can honestly say that I have never had a snack, a healthy one at that, that tastes so good with so little guilt. These generously sized bags contain only 100 calories, 4 grams of fat and come in seven different varieties, each one tastier than the next.  So far my favorite flavors are Barbeque and Sour Cream & Onion, my daughters favorites are Sea Salt & Vinegar and Cheddar, my husband…well he likes them all. So I guess it’s safe to say that Pop Chips are a very family-friendly snack option, and one you won’t ever question yourself about feeding to them. They are all natural, contain no trans fat, no cholesterol and no preservatives, and that’s how we roll these days.

The texture is something new to us too, it was definitely a pleasant surprise. Before opening the bag I assumed they’d look and taste like ordinary potato chips, after opening them I assumed they would taste like soy chips due to shape (round) and feel (light and “puffy”), once I tasted them I learned that I should never assume anything. Unlike bland soy chips or boring baked potato chips, Pop Chips pack a whole lotta flavor and just the right amount of crunch. How do they do it?

Popping is a way of making our all-natural chips. We start with wholesome potatoes, add a little heat and pressure, along with a little snack magic. And pop! It’s a chip. With an artful blend of all-natural seasonings, we’ve created lots of taste bud-popping flavors. Pop open a bag of popchips and try for yourself. Everybody has a favorite. Or two.

Sounds fun, right? So all you Type-A Mom’ers, be sure to find us at the conference next week if you’d like to try a bag of Pop Chips for yourself. If you can’t make it to the conference, Pop Chips are available online at www.popchips.com and at many retail locations such as, Whole Foods, CVS, Wegman’s, Jamba Juice, Fairway and more.
