Food Should Taste Good…GIVEAWAY!
I bet all my readers agree with this statement:
Am I right?
So much of the time, people embark on a weight loss journey and fail for one simple reason: the food just doesn’t taste good to them. Sure, anyone can stick to celery stalks and plain, grilled chicken for a period of time…but over the course of our lives, the repetition, the blandness and the boringness of many so-called “health foods” gets to be too much. Our palettes become underwhelmed and yearn for a taste of something better, and our minds start wanting everything we’ve previously told ourselves we can’t have. Enter the world of yo-yo dieting; not fun, not good for you, and completely discouraging.
I love being in school to be a registered dietitian – and I know I’m going to love actually being a registered dietitian – because it gives me so much joy to open up the eyes of people around me and let them know that if they’re willing to try a few new things, chances are they can squelch any “bad” craving in a healthy way. Sure, I’m all for indulgences…but there is a time and a place for them and unfortunately, they just don’t fit into an everyday healthy life.
One thing I have been craving nonstop throughout this pregnancy are chips…doritos to be specific. Prior to being pregnant, I can’t even tell you the last time I ate doritos (where the hell do these cravings come from anyways?!)…but since I’ve been carrying a little baby with me, well, let’s just say I’ve indulged a few too many times. I’m usually mad at myself after I eat them, because, let’s face it: they’re crap! Now more than ever, it is important for me to fill my body with wholesome and nutritious food. Thankfully (seriously, THANKFULLY) the chip Gods heard my prayers and a wonderful assortment of Food Should Taste Good chips arrived on my doorstep yesterday.
In case you aren’t familiar with these chips, here is a little blurb about them:
Our tortilla chips are made from the highest quality, all-natural ingredients baked into the chips. All chip varieties are gluten free, cholesterol and trans fat free, and do not use genetically modified ingredients (GMOs). They are also certified Kosher, lower in sodium, and are a good source of dietary fiber. The chips are available in eleven varieties: Multigrain, Sweet Potato, Olive, Jalapeno, The Works!, Buffalo, Chocolate, Potato & Chive, Cinnamon, Lime and Yellow Corn. We also offer a $1 off coupon on our site to anyone that joins up for our fan club (www.foodshouldtastegood.com).
Though I don’t have a picture (you’ll see one in my next post), I ripped into the bag of potato and chive chips…they are AWESOME! They taste exactly like a real chip, except they have more of an intense grain flavor. Sure, carrot sticks and apples are most certainly ideal choices for snacks…but sometimes, they just don’t cut it. These chips are a wonderful option to have around the house when you want something fun to snack on; for me, they totally kicked my everlasting chip craving…YES!
