I was given products in this post for the purpose of review. I was not paid to write this review
At some point in time someone convinced everyone healthy food doesn't taste good. Well, I'm here to set the record straight, healthy food can taste good!! Don't get me wrong, I'm not about to tell you broccoli is yummy... Broccoli is gross!
No, I'm more about healthy alternative snacks! My bloodwork didn't come back to good in December. My cholesterol was pretty scary. My doctor and I had a good talk, and I made some changes. One of those changes is really looking at what is in my food. Without even trying I lost 7 pounds just from cutting back on certain things and replacing foods I love with healthier choices.
One of the major things I had to replace was chips. And you crazy people need to stop lying about kale chips. Those things are not tasty! I want a real chip alternative and I think I may have just found it with Festive Foods!

My review:
There is a flavor for everyone! My hubby was impressed when he saw they even had a ranch flavor. And they have a crunch just like chips! I will admit they are a bit harder than chips, but after the first few bites I got use to the harder texture. I am very impressed and super excited to have a chip alternative to my snacking.
