I work at a whole foods and think about this all the time when I see people who think they're getting healthy snacks or "better" snacks when they're just as bad as other junk food sometimes. And it's not their fault. These products trick you with their wording.

+Soozee Sebastian Absolutely! I feel awful because it's totally not the consumers fault, the companies WANT us to think these are better choices so we buy them. But it is our responsibility as consumers to learn to see past those claims and recognize what they really mean. Little by little we will teach, learn and grow :)

+Mind Over Munch that was what I thought this video was about lol. Instead the ones you did were kinda obvious to me. I even told my boyfriend I did not trust the veggie chips. I would just rather make my own. The better ones to have used is those found in the healthy section of Krogers or Whole Foods. Just because it is in these areas or stores does not mean it is actually better for you. I think you did still get people thinking though. I try to think about how processed is it. That still is hard to determine.

Chips are a great weakness. One minute they're hiding behind the microwave and the next minute there's 2-3 empty bags of chips I've inhaled.

Remember, what you decide to eat is your choice. BUT it is important to be aware of what is in those choices we make, so let’s learn together. What’s your favorite processed snack? Anyone remember… dunkaroos? 🙄😁

Man, I love most of those! That's bad right! I actually am recently trying to only snack on fruits, like my own challenge! Btw I have been trying to rarely eat chips, and also trying to eat chips with ingredients: potatoes, oil, and salt, I'm also sometimes making my own spinach chips, some oil, and salt, then i bake them and enjoy! I actually don't eat fruit snacks, well except REAL fruit! I also don't eat the "healthy" version of Oreos, I eat Oreos, except now I'm pretty happy cause their also a tit healthier lol! And I also usually make my own yogurt covered stuff, I usually cover berries, like blueberries and strawberries, and eat all of that in the summer! I rarely eat those chippy things cause they don't sell them in my country! NOT EVEN CHETOS! 😢😱 I really love healthy snacks, like FRUIT! And yes, yes, please do a dark Choccolate vid! ❤️😘 Love from Italy!

Yes to the dark chocolate video! What's your opinion on Terra Chips? I'm sure they are not "good" for anyone because they do have added oils but, in my mind, i think it is better that you are actually getting the root vegetable (potato, yam, cassava, beet, etc) as a base than potatoes dyed to look like other veggies. This was a great video, thanks for all your time and effort:)

@MindOverMunch

8 жыл бұрын

+Jocey R I think it's great that Terra chips actually use root veggies as a base! But a potato is a root vegetable too and potatoes aren't bad for us either :) At the end of the day, the chips are still heavily doused in oil and baked, regardless of what the base is. There might be better chip choices, but they still shouldn't be considered a serving of veggies, if that makes sense :) Thank you!!
