Snap, Crackle and Dip? Popchips Releases New Popped Tortilla Chips Line
Sugar-free candy, fat-free potato chips, alcohol-free vodka. Frankly, there are some junk foods that should just stay junk. But if you’re still fiending for a healthier side to salvage your thousand-calorie, cheese-drenched, re-re-re-refried bean-filled combo, look no further than new Popchips Popped Tortilla Chips.
For the unfamiliar, Popchips are “never fried, never baked,” have half the fat and fewer calories than regular chips and are pressure-cooked to popped perfection, resulting in the chips’ revolutionarily “airy” texture. But guac and salsa fans need not fear. Ivy Stark, corporate executive chef of NYC chain Dos Caminos, gives the line her glowing approval: “They nailed it,” she told Fast Company. “Nice crispness and crunch, and it doesn’t break when dipped. I tested it in our guacamole to be sure.”
New Popchips Tortilla Chips come in four flavors: nacho cheese, ranch, salsa and chili limon, both in the 1 oz. single and 3.5 oz. share bags.
