Veggie chips
Varies by vegetable, generally light and slightly sweet or earthy, with a crisp, airy crunch similar to potato chips.
Lens analyzedVeggie chips are thin slices of vegetables like sweet potato, beet, or taro, fried or baked until crisp, sold as a snack alternative to potato chips. Despite the vegetable base, they're still a fried or oil-cooked snack rather than a raw vegetable.
Where it comes from
Vegetable chips developed as snack food companies looked to diversify beyond the standard potato chip, offering colorful, varied vegetable options that appealed to shoppers looking for something different, if not necessarily lighter.
Buying it
Check the ingredient list and nutrition label, since some veggie chip blends are mostly potato or corn-based with only a small amount of actual vegetable content.
Storing it
Store veggie chips in their sealed bag in the pantry, where they stay crisp for weeks; reseal tightly once opened.
Keeps about 4 months in the pantry.
