I have a really bad habit. It goes a little something like this:
“Hmmm…I’m hungry. I’m gonna go see what’s in the pantry”
…looking, looking…
“Uggghhh, everything requires cooking. I’m soooo hungry. Wait, chips! I’ll just stand here and eat a few while I decide.”
…a few handfuls of chips later…
It’s bad. I am just so impatient, and I am a horrible snacker. I’ve always liked to eat often. The boys in my family? They like to eat an entire days worth of food at one sitting. I don’t understand it one bit. If I had it my way, I would just eat all day long. It’s pretty much my favorite thing to do other than running and theatre.
The problem is once I started eating a healthier diet, so many of my favorite snacks were gone. Most snack type foods end up being calorie dense–and empty calories at that. I was so excited when Green Giant sent me some of their new lower fat snack chips to try out!
I tried the Zesty Cheddar Roasted Veggie Tortilla Chips and the Sea Salt Multigrain Sweet Potato Chips. I loved them both, but obviously the sweet potato ones were my favorite. If you’ve been reading this blog for any length of time, you are well aware of my sweet potato obsession, and these chips don’t disappoint–they are made with real sweet potatoes, and you can tell!
Green Giant is calling these chips their Giant Surprise new talent. Well, I am a big fan of surprises, especially when they involve food, and this one certainly delivers! These are perfect for a get together, or even for just a healthier option as a side for your lunch sandwich or salad. I hope you guys love them as much as I do!
In the spirit of surprises, you can find some more surprised talent on Green Giant’s youtube channel.

I have definitely seen these… Don’t know how I feel about them. LOL. You know me, I am not a chip advocate! 😉 But if you like em, I am happy for you!

Yum!! I would eat the entire bag. I like chips, but we rarely have them in our house.

I don’t think I’ve seen these chips before. Maybe beacause I’ve been avoiding the chip aisle. I have a sweet potato obsession too and those sweet potato chips have my name written all over them!
