The 100 calorie snack is a great idea in theory; eat a pre-measured snack and feel satisfied.  However, so much of the time, we eat one pack and think “oh that will hardly hold me over until my next meal.”  And at that point we eat maybe one to two more of those little snack packs and call it a meal.  The most wonderful thing happens when we eat just one pack and feel fulfilled.  It is almost like we are surprised by it, like a “ha I showed you little bag!" It’s exciting and puts a little bit more pep in our step during the day!

Let me begin by saying I am not vegan.  I don’t have the desire to be one, nor do I seek out vegan-friendly foods on the daily.  But living in Southern California, and specifically being in Los Angeles, you can’t help but being surrounded by something relating to the organic movement.  I am not too vain to admit when I’m wrong about something and these vegan friendly pita chips by Whole Foods brand 365 Everyday Value is just the thing that had me apologizing to all my vegan friends – at least for one night, that is!

Made with toasted whole wheat pita bread and flax seed, these chips are undeniably delicious and great for your health conscience side.  I had them in the onion flavor served with homemade hummus, but these can easily be enjoyed all by itself or crushed over a salad for a new twist on the crouton.  And the best part of it is that you don’t need to worry about ingesting all that processed bad stuff that causes your waistline to expand; just open up a bag and enjoy!
