I fell in love with Sun Chips the first time I tried them. Then I bought a big bag and brought them home to find that my hubby didn't care for them. Now, fast forward a year or so and this is now one of his favorite snacks. I finally won him over. My favorite flavor is Harvest Cheddar.

Sun Chips Harvest Cheddar Multigrain Chips

Sun Chips Harvest Cheddar Multigrain Chips are made from hearty grains and rolled into a crispy and light chip. Sun Chips contain 18 grams of whole grains in each 1 oz. serving. They have 30% less fat than traditional potato chips (and they aren't greasy either). The Harvest Cheddar flavor is a mild cheddar flavor and mixes well with the whole grains. In fact, they compliment each other. It's hard to believe these chips taste great and are much healthier for you than traditional potato chips!

Sun Chips are also available in French Oinion, Cinnamon,Garden Salsa, and the Original flavor. Harvest Cheddar is my all-time favorite.

My Viewpoint

Sun Chips Harvest Cheddar Multigrain Chips are a great chip for a mid afternoon snack or to go along with a sandwich, hot dog or hamburger. The chips have a great wholesome flavor that doesn't compare to any other chips on the market. The Harvest Cheddar is cheesy and considered to be a mild cheddar. It blends well with the whole grains and comes off as a full flavored chip.

Sun Chips Harvest Cheddar Multigrain Chips cost about the same as other brands. The price has recently gone down in my local grocery store and these are actually cheaper than Lays Potato Chips, being priced at $3.00 a bag and Lays Potato Chips at $3.50 a bag.

I have never purchased a bag of stale Sun Chips Harvest Cheddar Multigrain Chips. They are always fresh and the chips are light and crispy. Since they are 30% fewer calories than regular potato chips, you can feel good about eating these if you are on a diet or watching your calories. They are also a good choice for your kids and family.

Unlike Cheetos, you won't be left with sticky and cheesy fingers. All of the flavor stays on the chips and is delivered directly to your taste buds. I am glad that I finally won my husband over on these chips. I would much rather eat healthier if I'm going to snack. Sun Chips Harvest Cheddar Multigrain Chips allows you enjoy a snack without giving up flavor and it's made of quality wholesome grains! I like it!

I agree, Mark. They have a great taste and it's a natural taste, not grease or artificial flavorings.

LOL, you have to hide snacks when you want to consume them with teens in the house. I always bought two bags--one was stashed away and the other was free game.
