New sweet potato variety
Thanks to Yarra Valley Snack Foods for sending me a generous box of 12 packs of the new Thomas Chipman Sweet Potato Chips which I of course shared around the office. I think I still prefer the Beetroot Chips but these were quite well liked. From the taste testers I had around at the time the one thing that most people noticed about these chips was they seemed to feel a bit oily when you picked them up. Each packet was listed as serving 3 people so you'd have to keep this in mind. I did feel a little full after eating a few handfuls so certainly one to have in moderation to keep the fat content to a minimum. I believe sweet potato is regarded as a healthier alternative to the normal potato so if you're already a fan of the Thomas Chipman range then you might want to check out this new variety to see how it compares.
