I’ve tried Terra Chip’s Exotic Vegetable Chips - Original and Sweets and Beets, both of which contain sweet potato chips; this one contains only sweet potato chips. The chips look a little dark, perhaps overcooked a little, but taste very good, sweet and full of the good sweet potato flavour. We bought a second bag.
Another offering from Terra Chips is a medly of unusual or exotic chips, in that you don't find such in North America. The first of these comes from white and purple Taro root, popular in South-East Asia, and a root vegetable I've written about before. Next is the pale yellow-white Yuca or Cassava root, which I've enjoyed before in Venezuela, but not as a chip; I've have seen cassava chips in ethnic stores before, however. Last is the Batata or Cuban Sweet Potato, light brown in colour; I've seen this for sale in Chinese supermarkets. Alongside these exotics, is the more familiar Sweet Potato, which is a popular seller for Terra, and Parsnips, which are familar items for sale in supermarkets, but not so familiar as chips. Each of these chips is interesting on its own, and this offering allows you to taste a number of Terra's offerings. I like the sweet potato and the taro best, but the other ones were interesting as well.
I have a liking for sweet potatoes, so when we saw this interesting crinkle-cut chips from Terra Chips, which also includes chips made from beets (which my beautiful Bride likes), we knew we had to try them. I was struck by how red the beets chips were when I opened the bag. There was definitely a higher ratio of sweet potato chips in the bag, but they are good, and apparently a popular seller, according to their website. I found the sweet potato chips to be very crunchy, they are thick cut, so could not say they are crispy. The beet chips were thinner, but no less crunchy. I liked how they managed to make them crunchy; from experience in making sweet potato fries, they tend to be soft when cooked in hot oil. Because they are natural chips, and "healthy" chips, they tend to be more expensive than potato chips, this bag was about $4.
