Hey, do you want know something? Baked potato chips ARE NOT healthy! And guess what else? They dont even taste good! But hey, Im sure you looked past that oh-so-lacking salty cardboard taste and texture many times in the name of health, which is why you NEED to be informed... Are you ready to be SHOCKED? Make sure you are sitting down before reading this next line... Baked potato chips are more heavily processed and contain MORE health-damaging ingredients than regular ol fried potato chips. What?! Yes, its true, even demon-possessed trans fats cant compare with the health consequences contained in a bag of baked taters. 1. Dried Potatoes: These are processed potatoes...not even fresh, and most likely dried using high heat which makes them even worse. You see, when starch is subjected to high heat, it forms acrylamide, a potent cancer causing agent. No thankee! 2. Genetically Modified Corn: In not 1, not 2, but THREE ingredients (corn starch, corn oil, and corn sugar). GMO corn has been shown to lead to liver and kidney damage in rodents and the jury is still out on humans. Ill pass on being part of the lab experiement! 3. Genetically Modified Soy: Same as above...bad news. How do you know if things like soy and corn are non-GMO? 99% of soy and corn are genetically modified, so unless the ingredients are organic, the overwhelming odds are that soy and corn ingredients are genetically modified. 4. Corn Sugar (AKA high fructose corn syrup): Rated as the #1 worst carb ever, high fructose corn syrup has been heavily linked to obesity, weight gain, metabolic syndrome and diabetes. So did the guy who rung you up at your local sandwich shop LIE to you when he offered you that healthy bag of potato chips to go along with your healthy low fat foot long sub? No, he just clearly doesnt have a clue what hes talking about. And stop eating subs for lunch already. Processed meat on high glycemic bread isnt a healthy choice, no matter how many grams of fat it has. So skip out on the potato chips...baked or fried. But there IS good news, you can still eat a bunch of your favorite foods, when you learn exactly which foods burn the most fat.
