Review of Stacy's Pita Chips (Simply Naked)

Stacy's -- Pita Chips (Simply Naked) (vegan)
Overall Rating: 4/5
Summary: perfectly huge crunch factor; lightly salted; fresh-baked and you can tell; light, but filling as a snack...I'm a fan! It would work very well with hummus and other salsas, dips, etc. My only qualm is the enriched wheat flour used; whole wheat would have been ideal. Nevertheless, it's a good eat! I would recommend it.

Where to buy: Metro


Ingredients: enriched wheat flour (wheat flour, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), sunflower oil and/or canola oil, sea salt, whole wheat flour, and less than 2% of the following: organic cane sugar, yeast, malted barley flour, rosemary extract, and ascorbic acid.

Well, the ingredients aren't bad. The enriched wheat flour is unfortunate, but this is a pretty great brand in terms of using minimal and natural ingredients. The nutritional profile is good--good fats, low-calorie, with 3g protein. It's not too good on vitamins or fiber, but hey, that's what salsa, guacamole, etc. are for, right?
