One of the reasons why I would rather spend a little more money to purchase organic food products is not that it’s much healthier but it’s also ethical and sustainable. It isn’t just about the fear of swallowing food with toxic chemicals and harmful pesticides but it’s also about being eco-conscious and sparing a thought for the Earth and its people.
With increasing consumer awareness and demand on fair trade and sustainable food products, I am elated to see more of such exciting products entering the market. One of such is
Viva La Papa! Potato chips – organic hand cooked crunchy potato chips from Peru. These gluten-free and kosher certified chips are cooked by hand in small batches with no artificial ingredients or GMOs. Are you a health nut too? These are another healthier option of chips for mid-day snacking.

I personally love eating steamed sweet potatoes. It not only fills you up with healthy carbohydrates but it also feeds your body with Vitamin B6, Vitamin C, Iron and magnesium. Boy was I glad that there’s now another way of savouring the sweet potatoes – in the form of chips!
