Snapz 100% Natural Beetroot Crisps Review – Tasty, Good For You?

I’ve known about crisps made from vegetables for a while but not actually tried them. Yesterday I came across beetroot crips called Snapz, I took a photo of the packet (on left, click to enlarge) using the camera on my mobile phone so you can see what they look like.

Crisps are generally not very healthy, so are Snapz as tasty as normal crisps but also much more healthy for you?

Taste
Personally it didn’t tickle my taste buds at all. The first one was ok, a bit weird, the whole idea of a beetroot crisp still not clear in my head! So I had a few more and the taste got worse to be honest, quite an earthy taste. I don’t really like beetroot anyway so I wasn’t expecting to like them.

Other Sorts
You can also buy Parsnip crisps and Carrot & Paprika. To me they sound even worse than Beetroot so I don’t think I’ll be trying them. I’m sure lots more sorts are either; already available or will become available.

Are They Healthy?
The back of the packet says: not fried, not baked, fat-free, no added sugar, no added salt, non-gmo products and no artifical flavours/colours. As they say they really are 100% natural. They also say they are a good source of fibre and count to your 1 of your 5 a day. The guideline daily amount reads: Calories: 2.6%, Sugars (natural) 11.5%, Fat (natural) 0.03%, Saturates 0%, Salt 3.2%. Based on all of that information I have to conclude they are definitely good for you.

Recommendation
I’m not a big vegetable fan anyway so really it was highly unlikely I was going to like these crisps. But if you are a fan of your veg I recommend you try them out because you may love them. And they are 1 of your 5 a day

Availability
Snapz are available in the UK to buy from some supermarkets, this multipack was purchased from Sainsburys for £1.49, you get 5 x20g packs per multipack. I’m not sure about availability in other regions. You can also read about them on the Snapz website.
