The awesome people over at popchips sent me some samples to review. I’ve had the original and BBQ flavors before, but I was excited to see what new varieties they had as well.
popchips are all-natural and have some pretty great stats:
-They’re popped (not baked or fried)
-Less than half the fat of fried chips
-No transfat, saturated fat or cholesterol
-No preservatives, colors or fake flavors
-No greasy residue
They also sent me a sweet bag clip (how cute is that? A bag clip from a potato chip company! Brilliant!)
Irving and I dug into the first bag right away. We chose the Sour Cream and Onion first because it’s a flavor we don’t get very often, but I used to LOVE those kinds of chips!
The flavor was perfect. Not too salty or overbearing. The right amount of tastiness for the chip. popchips are denser than regular chips. Almost like Munchos, remember those? MMmm! (but these are much healthier!)
I couldn’t show you a bag of chips without subjecting you to another photo of my face! haha.
PS….. I spy Irving in the mirror!
The next flavors we tried were shared with our friends (and new parents!) Erika and Timmy! They grabbed the BBQ and sea salt & vinegar flavors. It was the perfect pre dinner party snack! Light, satisfying and delicious. I think they liked them!
On our roadtrip up to San Francisco, I had the salt & pepper flavor to keep me company. I always get hungry on long car trips, probably out of boredom. But popchips were the perfect snack for the road. I really liked these. I’d say they were a bit on the salty side, but the pepper flavor was PERFECT. They kept my mouth happy.
I still have the Cheddar and Original flavors left, and I’ll probably save those for a Hollywood Bowl night or for a time when I am craving something munchy.
Thanks again to popchips for letting me try the new flavors!

I love PopChips. I would like to try the Sour Cream & Onion flavor!
I LOVE Popchips! 🙂 I like the Original, but have been wondering about the Salt and Vinegar. I’m actually not too crazy about the Salt and Pepper, which was the first flavored one I tried because that is normally my favorite kind of chip. Weird, huh? I stock up on Original, though. My husband always “can’t find them” at the grocery store, so I have to keep a stash! 🙂
I love love love Salt and Vinegar. I love this post, it looks like the popchips went on a roadtrip adventure 🙂
I’d love to try the cheddar, because I’m curious how salty (or not) the flavoring is. 🙂
Yum these look delish! I would love to try the sour cream and onion flavor 🙂 I came to your blog after doing a search for L.A. healthy living blogs and I am happy to have found you! Love the posts!
