Jackson’s Sweet Potato Carolina BBQ Kettle Cooked Chips - with Premium Avocado Oil (1.5 oz, Pack of 10) - Gluten-Free, Peanut Free, Vegan, Allergen-Friendly - Shark Tank Product

Look, you and I both know that we are deluding ourselves into thinking that anything fried and salted is a "healthy snack." If you want a healthy snack, eat some carrots, or an apple, or any number of actual fruits and vegetables in their natural form. Okay, so those options sound about as likely to fulfill the snack craving as a bowl of sand? How about a nice sweet potato chip then? That's healthy right? A sweet potato is a vegetable, I guess.Let's face it, sweet potatoes have a way better PR firm working for them than regular potatoes. Every bougey restaurant serves some form of "sweet potato fries" and tries to convince you they are somehow better than regular old "potato" fries. I have never had a sweet potato fry that ever held up against the most basic of regular French fry. Every time I order them, I am always disappointed. They seem like a good idea after a convincing plug by the waitress; but when they arrive, I always feel duped and that I should have just gone with my gut. But hey, where sweet potato stuff lacks in flavor profile it makes up for in exoticness and elitism. "Oh you have to try the sweet potato fries with the aioli mayonnaise (for the record, no aioli mayonnaise has ever come close to regular old kethup)."Same holds for a sweet potato chip. You won't find a sweet potato chip on the Earth that can compete against the most basic gas station off brand potato chip. Or at least that is what my normal disposition would be. These Jackson's Carolina BBQ sweet potato chips are really good. Dare I say, surprisingly good to someone who has a natural distrust of anything "sweet potato." They have a solid "crunch" to them, like a kettle chip, but are not cut overly thick, like some of those offerings. The BBQ flavor is unique. It has a hint of spice and just the right amount of "tang." My wife, who is a passionate sweet potato proselytizer, raved about them too. Sheepishly, I might have to admit that I want to try their other flavors, especially the Spicey Taptio.So have Jackson's Sweet Potato Chips changed my mind about the whole sweet potato industry? No. I still think in twenty years we will look back at it as a stupid fad. But if I were rolling down the street in my Snack Wagon, I'd tell the bag of Lays driving to slow down. And if the bag of Fritos in the back seat asked, "What are you doing man? It's a sweet potato chip!" I'd say, "Yeah, Fritos, I know. But it's one of the good ones."

Delicious

I’m a little bummed because I was not expecting them to be this spicy. I wish the reviews or description had said something about the heat level. Granted, I am not a huge fan of super spicy things, but these were a bit much. Or maybe I’m just a wuss. But I tried the regular ones and loved them, so I figured I would buy them in a barbecue version, so now I’m stuck with a box them.

Ohhh so good I will buy again BBQ flavor was great, crunchy sweet just perfect there is some heat to them but there perfect. I wish it was a little cheaper so I could buy them more often

I was a little skeptical at first. I like sweet potato fries, but I wasn't sure it would translate into kettle chips. I was wrong. Very wrong. These things are delicious and I have to keep myself from eating more than one bag at a time. I should've bought a bigger bag, if they even offer it. Either way, well worth the purchase and an excellent, delicious snack!

Some of the bags had holes in them. I had to throw them out. Not happy with my purchase.

Just what I expected. Very tasty. I think my wife is trying to eat all of them, though! Nice and crispy, not oily. Great snack.

They are unexpectedly hot/spicy, not a bad thing in my opinion. But when they label them “Carolina” BBQ, they aren’t kidding!!!!! The chips have a hint of bbq flavor but like the legit pork bbq that is served as a staple in South Carolina, it is VERY heavy on the vinegar, mustard, tang of what is served in this state I live in. Yes, I live in South Carolina. I couldn’t get past two chips. I wanted to like them so much that I tried them again the next day. No luck. They tasted just as bad the second time!!! I can’t recommend these chips. Like I said, I really wanted to love them, but I don’t. The flavor of bbq is not one I like. (And bbq chips are normally my favorite!)
