The Better Chip - Spinach & Kale

They changed the packaging! This version is way less appealing. But I guess it matches the product, because these chips are truly kale-colored. Disturbing! I guess that gives the "healthy" vibe, even though these are mostly corn and oil and not that healthy. But they do taste like kale, which I kinda like -- that aftertaste goes on and on! It's a filling snack, though it's basically a kale-flavored corn chip, and I don't love corn chip. But a fun novelty, nevertheless.

Overall
Cost: 5/10
Taste: 6/10

The Better Chip - JalepeƱo & Cilantro

These are tortilla chips! Or corn chips, in any case. They're square, which is very cool, but they're still corn chips, which is an inferior chip. Anyway, they are good for corn chips. The squares are nice and dense/thick, so they don't break easily. They also have a nice spicy jalepeno flavor, and the aftertaste is pleasant too. The seasoning would be good in any taco-like environment. I also realized that I've had chips from this brand before (and liked them), they've changed their packaging so I didn't notice! A tasty and spicy snack, probably good for dipping, but not as tasty as a potato chip, perhaps. I can't speak to the health factor - they don't seem that healthful, but they say "the better chip", so maybe they are and I'm just dumb.

The Better Chip - Sweet Corn

These are pretty good; better than I expected. They are smaller circles, pretty dense, not super crumbly, and surprisingly sweet. I don't even know if I'd want to dip them in your typical salsa because of that, but they are good without it, too. A real strong lardy vibe, too.  They are also 220 calories for a single-serve bag, though, which is a little rich for my day-to-day blood, but OK as a nice filling snack treat.

Overall
Cost: 6/10
Taste: 7/10 (for a corn chip)
