Vegetable Crisps
Vegetable Crisps
These have been popping up all over the place lately as an alternative to potato crisps – which are high in saturated fat, and salt. Of course, now we think of it – crisps are made from potatoes – which are also not naturally high in fat or salt….
Amazingly, 100g of Tyrell’s Crinkly Veg Crisps contains 31.2g of fat, to 30.8g in 100g of Walkers Salt and Vinegar. The Walkers do contain 1.5g of salt, compared to 0.2 in the Tyrell’s.
There’s different types of fat – and it’s not all bad for you. Swap the fried fatty crisps for naturally fatty Raw Almonds – 100g provides 50g of fat but 20g of protein. Eat just a hand full and you’ll stay full for longer.
