Guiltless Gourmet Chips Review and Sweepstakes

Baked, not fried. Those are the words I look for when buying chips. They are healthier and I like to make healthy choices for snacks that my kids like. My son loves chips, especially tortilla chips. I limit the amount he is allowed to have, because even a healthier version can be unhealthy for a child if he or she eats too much. My son can sit and eat a whole bag all by himself.

Guiltless Gourmet sent me a bag of their Blue Corn Baked Tortilla Chips. At first, my children were not sure if they would try them. It was the color that put them off. They are a dark blue, almost black tortilla chip. They did try them and they approved. My son approved so much, that I had to lock the bag up in the pantry so that he would not eat the whole thing.

These chips are free of saturated and trans fat. About 18 chips are 120 calories and contain 3g of fat. The chips are salty, that is my one criticism or this product. They contain 180mg of sodium in one serving(18chips) and you can taste the salt. They also come in a variety of flavors: Blue Corn, Chili Lime, Yellow Corn Salted and Unsalted, Spicy Black Bean, Mucho Nacho, Chipotle and Chili Verde. To solve the problem of salt, I will get the the Yellow Corn Unsalted chips.
