Hungry Girl Today: 3.13.09
Tomorrow is National Potato Chip Day! We're rattling off our favorite chips
(and giving you some dips), so you'll be prepared!
Just Bitten!
Here are some BREAKOUT chips you may not be familiar with...
Cape Cod 40% Reduced Fat Potato Chips
PER SERVING (1 oz., about 23 chips): 130 calories, 6g fat, 110mg sodium,
18g carbs, 1g fiber, <1g sugars, 2g protein -- POINTS® value 4*
Through a crazy combination of their standard kettle-cooking process and
something called "flash-baking," the Cape Cod folks have created perfect-
tasting reduced-fat chips. AND said chips come in 100-calorie packs.
Somebody needs to give these people a medal! Click here to find the closest
bag to you (or here to get some without leaving your computer). The 100-cal
packs are hard to find but worth the search.
Quaker Tortillaz

sodium, 20 - 21g carbs, 1g fiber, 1 - 2g sugars, 2g protein -- POINTS® value
3 - 4*
Baked rice & corn crisps... these are really good and fun. Plus, they come in
Zesty Guacamole flavor. Guilt-free guac-flavored chips?! Sign us up. There's
also a Cheesy Nacho flavor, but we like the guacamole one better!
Corners Popped Corn Tortillas
PER SERVING (1 oz.): 130 calories, 3 - 3.5g fat, 170 - 260mg sodium, 20 -
22g carbs, 0 - <1g fiber, 0 - 1g sugars, 2 - 3g protein -- POINTS® value 3 - 4*
These things can't decide what kind of snack they are. Popcorn? Tortillas?
Corn chips? Guess they're a little of each! Bad name, nice taste, good
texture. They come in fun flavors, too -- Sea Salt, Zesty Ranch, and Nacho
Cheese. Click here to order online.
Pucci Pizza Snacks

carbs, 0.5g fiber, 2g sugars, 4g protein -- POINTS® value 3*
These brick-oven-baked snacks may not be billed as "chips," but they're
chips alright. They come in Classic, Garlic, and Tomato Basil. There's cheese
baked into each triangle and, yes, they actually do taste like pizza. So if you
like your pizza cold and crunchy, click to order.
Michael Season's Natural Gourmet Baked Multigrain Chips

sodium, 19g carbs, 3g fiber, 2g sugars, 2g protein -- POINTS® value 3*
Do you have a thing for SunChips? If so, you'll PASS OUT when you taste
these. They have less fat and fewer calories than SunChips, and they taste
INSANELY fantastic. Slightly sweet... very addictive... AHHHHHHHHHHH!

they're sold or here to order online.

These are our go-to snack when we want some potato chips but DON'T want
all the grease and fat that typically goes along with 'em. They come in a
bunch of flavors (we're obsessed with Barbeque). Check here to see where

Oooh, our favorite corn chip swap-out. They're SO much lower in fat than
regular tortilla chips, yet they still give you a nice crunch. Good going, GG!
And while these are the perfect plain tortilla chip swap, there are a bajillion
other flavors to choose from, as well. Click here to track 'em down.
Kettle Brand Baked (a.k.a. Bakes) Potato Chips
PER SERVING (1 oz., about 20 chips): 120 calories, 3g fat, 115 - 170mg
sodium, 21g carbs, 2g fiber, 0 - 1g sugars, 2 - 3g protein -- POINTS® value

These are sturdy, slightly thick, and completely delicious. They're actually
nothing like any baked chips you know. In Lightly Salted, Hickory Honey
Barbeque, Aged White Cheddar, and new Sea Salt & Vinegar, they taste just
like REGULAR potato chips... and good ones, too. Careful not to down the
whole bag. BTW, the Lightly Salted ones come in 100-calorie packs. Oooh,
and click here for a coupon!
