Review of 'Beanitos' Black Bean Chips (Chipotle BBQ)

Beanitos -- Black Bean Chips (Chipotle BBQ) (vegan)
Overall Rating: 4/5
Summary: wow, very spicy...nice! It's both sweet and salty and has a real depth of flavour. In fact, I found it was too much to pair these chips with a salsa dip...it would have covered the real flavour! The nutritional profile and ingredients are really great...one of the best in terms of chips! That said, it was not quite as crispy as I would have liked. I recommend this and would definitely buy it again.
