Product Description:

I was at the local Trader Joe's today, and this bag happened to catch my eye - the selling point of these snacks is that they are made of lentil flour as opposed to strictly potatoes or corn.

These are really quite bland, I would compare it to eating styrofoam peanuts with salt on them (and hey - we've all tried that before, right?). I'm not sure what I was really expecting, but I thought they might have a nutty taste to them or something.

While they do have an impressive 4 grams of fiber per serving (Certainly far more than you will see in even the best "multi-grain" chips and snacks), I can't really say these are a particularly healthy way to get your fiber on. They do have 4.5 grams of fat per serving which is not as bad as a normal bag of chips - but it's pretty easy to down a whole bag of these at once, and they have plenty of sodium (380mg / serving) to spare as well.

Overall, i might recommend these if you are really craving some salty greasyness and don't want to go the potato chip route, but they are nowhere near as exciting as they initially sounded.
