Potato chips actually seem healthier when compared to all the over-processing you get from commercial veggie chips! That was when I told myself there’s just nothing like homemade chips. Boy, did I get an unpleasant surprise once I finally took the time to read the ingredient list closely. I could have definitely made my own version, but it was for a quick fix and I didn’t want to go through the trouble of preparing them. In the past, I used to eat store-bought veggie chips. This is where veggie chips have become a godsend! They are, of course, the healthier alternative - especially for people like me who tend to mind their health.

If chips were invented as far back as prehistoric times, I bet even the dinosaurs would love them! My only problem with chips is that as much as I enjoy munching on them, it’s the type of food that makes you feel guilty right after you see an empty bowl. Chips have been a favorite snack forever.
