Siete chips

This product earns a 3/5 green leaves rating. The Siete Chips Churro Strips are a snack option for those seeking cleaner food choices. They are not organic, which impacts their rating negatively. The chips are made with non-GMO ingredients, a positive aspect that health-conscious consumers often look for.

The ingredients list starts with a cassava blend, including cassava flour and starch, which serves as the base of the chips. Avocado oil is used, which is a healthier fat choice compared to other common cooking oils. The inclusion of coconut sugar and agave syrup means the product contains added sugars, which are less desirable for a cleaner diet. Pumpkin powder and cinnamon are natural ingredients that contribute to the product’s profile, while psyllium husk powder is a fiber source. Sea salt adds flavor, and vanilla powder rounds out the ingredient list.

The product loses points for not being organic and for the presence of added sugars. Coconut sugar, while often marketed as a healthier alternative, still counts as added sugar. Agave syrup is noted specifically for being a more harmful type of added sugar due to its high fructose content, which is a significant factor in the product’s overall score.

The Siete Chips Churro Strips have their strengths, such as the use of non-GMO ingredients and the absence of harmful oils. However, the deductions for non-organic ingredients and the inclusion of added sugars, particularly agave syrup, place this product in the middle of the spectrum. It represents an option for those looking to improve their diet but still contains elements that might not align with the strictest clean eating standards.
