Like other Vermont food products before them, Madhouse Munchies potato chips are naturally scrumptious, made with gourmet ingredients, and comparatively healthy. Made with mono-unsaturated canola oil, kettle-cooked and certified vegetarian, the snacks are trans fat-, hydrogenated oil-, and cholesterol-free, and significantly lower in saturated fat than their competitors. Their trademark slogan, “super crispy, really good,” is simple and true. We recommend the Mesquite BBQ, Sea Salted and Vinegar, and Creamy French Onion flavors over the original Sea Salted flavor—slightly boring in comparison, although impressively containing only three ingredients. Backed by a funky website and an honest “Madhouse Creed” of beliefs (printed on the bag), the company has an all around country-quality charm.
Check out their website to find a store near you that carries them or to order some chips directly from Vermont (starting at $1.25 for a small bag).

As my tastes have matured so has my preference for licorice and I seek out only the darkest, chewiest, and most complex flavors. Used as a sweetener and a medicinal since ancient...
After an athletic mom and her marathon-running, allergic-to-milk son got fed up with the energy bar options on the market, they took matters into their own hands and came up with a customizable alternative that they call You Bars. On their site, customers can make up their own recipe to their exact specs, choosing from a variety of ingredients like almond butter, soy protein,...
If you're anything like me, you've searched long and hard for a protein and energy bar that wasn't filled with loads of chemicals and artificial ingredients. After reading about and trying a couple of flavors of Elev8 Me bars, I started buying them by the case! Elev8 Me bars were created by a very physically active family in Vancouver who wanted to create the...
We were expecting a total disaster when we tried these chocolate tortilla chips from FoodShouldTasteGood. Finding the balance between salty and sweet is always a challenge and often disappointing. These chips deliver both in creating a chip on the edge. They are salty enough to accent the corn and the crunch, and just chocolately enough to be noticed and appreciated without being sweet or...
Visitors to Taj Hotels in India have been served these tasty snack mixes for years, and now they are available in the U.S. Available in Punjabi, Bombay, Madrasi, Manglori and Madras flavors, each of these vegetarian snack mixes combines items like chick pea flour crunchies, nuts, spices, fruits and legumes. Some are spicier than others, and all of them will brighten up snack/bar time....
