Potato chips are usually that aisle at the supermarket you MOST want to avoid if you care about your health - basically an encyclopedia of industrial food additives and questionable ingredients 🤔

At least the first ingredient is potatoes? ☠️

But like most of those snacks & treats in colorful wrappers, they didn't start out like that.

And when you make them simply, in small batches with real food ingredients - what you get is a snack that's not only MUCH better for you, but tastes better too! 💪

Finding producers who share our values for "real food" ingredients is one of our great pleasures, so we were thrilled when we discovered New Zealand's Proper Crisps - and even more thrilled to bring them to Thailand 🇹🇭

How to do things "Properly" 😎

Family-owned Proper Crisps are setting the gold standard for how potato chips should be done 👇

• Start with high-quality, non-GMO potatoes from the south island of New Zealand 🇳🇿🥔
   
• Cook them by hand (see your cook's name proudly on every bag!) 👨🏻‍🍳
   
• Use a much better oil for frying: Proper Crisps fry in high oleic sunflower oil, which is very different than the cheap commercial seed oils. It's made from non-GMO seeds that are bred to be high (over 80%) in oleic acid, the same monounsaturated fat that gives olive oil its great fatty acid ratio. Unlike commercial sunflower oil and other seed oils, high-oleic sunflower oil is not hydrogenated and is expeller-pressed rather than extracted with chemical solvents. In other words, a HUGE upgrade to the seed oils the mass market brands are using. 
   
• Use sea salt, not table salt: NZ sea salt with trace amounts of minerals is the natural choice compared to processed or iodized salt which removes the minerals.
   
• No natural or artificial flavors: Proper Crisps use *gasp* real herbs & spices for their flavors. No natural or artificial flavors here. Think actual paprika, rosemary, onion, vinegar, and so on.
   
• No nasty preservatives or other additives: TBHQ, MSG, corn syrup, and other preservatives and additives are very common in mass-market chip brands. You won't find them here.

• Marlborough Sea Salt
• Cider Vinegar & Sea Salt
• Rosemary & Thyme
• Onion & Green Chive
• Free Range Sage & Onion
• Barbeque Rub
• Smoked Paprika
• Garden Medley root chips (sweet potato, carrot, parsnip and more)

Bonus round: Tortilla chips 🇲🇽

Just like with their potato chips, Proper Crisps have taken a "proper" approach to tortilla chips.

They use non-GMO white corn from the USA and a traditional Mexican recipe for a delicious, authentic tortilla chip with the best quality ingredients on the market.

We love them, and we think you will too. To celebrate, find our famous guacamole at 10% off this week too! 🥑🔥
