Today, Kevin and I are trying out Legendary Foods' popped protein chips. We have the nacho cheese, barbecue, and ranch flavors, each priced at $3.49 at Vitamin Shoppe. Note, Target offers a pizza flavor, but it's only available in a pack of four for $9.99, making it a more economical choice compared to buying singles.
Legendary Foods markets these chips as guilt-free snacks for chip fanatics, boasting 20g of protein and just 4g of net carbs per serving. They emphasize a light and crispy texture with bold flavors, free from artificial additives. Visit eatlegendary.com for more information; they are distributed from Santa Monica, California.
Each 34g bag contains only 150 calories. Let's dive into the flavors:
Nacho Cheese
The nacho cheese chips resemble Doritos in aroma but are triangular in shape. The texture is slightly more fibrous than regular puffs, yet enjoyable without lingering chunks. Kevin found the cheese flavor akin to Doritos without the seasoning.
**Barbecue:**
The barbecue chips, despite a dog food-like aroma, surprised us with a taste that differs from the smell. However, we preferred the cheese flavor due to its distinct seasoning and enjoyable texture.
**Ranch:**
These ranch chips deliver a strong, distinctive flavor with hints of spices like dill, onion, and garlic. Despite mixed opinions, I found them palatable with a texture that avoids the papery feel typical of low-carb snacks.
In conclusion, our preferences were clear—nacho cheese and ranch topped our list, while barbecue fell short. If you've tried Legendary Foods' pizza flavor, share your thoughts below! We hope you found this review helpful.
