Speaker 1: you can find at the supermarkets. So to get us

10
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: started today, Sissy, tell me, are you a hot chip lover?

11
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 2: I have to be honestly, and of course I will

12
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,480
Speaker 2: eat them, but it's certainly not something that I personally

13
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 2: would have added to my dinner on a weeknight. You know,

14
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 2: I'm more likely if you're out at an amazing restaurant

15
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 2: and they serve a really good quality chip. I'll eat some.

16
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 2: But my kids love them. And I used to make

17
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,480
Speaker 2: a lot of the sweet potato fries, so I would

18
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 2: just get a sweet potato, cut it up, put it

19
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 2: in extraversion olivell, and bake it. And then last year

20
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 2: I had to review the best frozen chips for the

21
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 2: Healthy Food Guide, and I found a sweet potato variety

22
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 2: that were so clean that I thought, why am I

23
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 2: bothering to cut all these chips up myself and cook them?

24
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 2: And I've been using them ever since with the kids.

25
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 2: So two or three nights a week, my kids will

26
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 2: have either what they describe as yellow chippies or orange

27
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 2: jebbies with their dinner, which might be fish pieces or

28
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,479
Speaker 2: some chicken stensil. But I myself don't love them, and I'm,

29
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 2: you know, like we describe, I try and sort of

30
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 2: use my calories with foods that I really like, so

31
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 2: I sort of don't tend to have that with my

32
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 2: evening meal, but for my kids and the family, I

33
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 2: do buy them each week, so I'm pretty across them.

34
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 2: So I'm pretty interested in some of the ones you've

35
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 2: picked today because they're actually ones that I haven't really

36
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 2: looked at. So I'm finding it quite enlightening myself.

37
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: Lovely, And I'm like you, I love nothing more than

38
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: like a good quality potato chip, Like I hate when

39
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: you go to a cafe and you can tell it's

40
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: just cooked in really crappy oil and they're sort of

41
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: like half soggy. I really love, Like my favorite chips

42
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 1: are like the chips with the trouple oil and the

43
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: parmesan on them. Whenever I see them in a restaurant,

44
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, sign me up deliciously, But I'm like you,

45
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: it has to be a good quality chip. And one

46
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 1: of my favorite meals David and I multiple times a

47
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 1: week we'll do crispy skin salmon, we do some chipper's

48
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: in the air fry, and I do like a nice

49
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: Asian sort of salad with like a honey sort of

50
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 1: sorry a soy dressing on it as well. So that's

51
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: one of our sort of go to meals each week.

52
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 2: And I think definitely if I had an air fry

53
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 2: at home, I would probably use it for that purpose

54
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 2: as well. But I think the other thing we have

55
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 2: to say, of course, is a lot of the chips

56
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 2: we eat from restaurants and things that cooked not gray oil.

57
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 2: So I'm always aware of that too, So you've got

58
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 2: to try and make sure that, at least when you're

59
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 2: having them, there from better oils. But yeah, the ones

60
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,519
Speaker 2: that you choose today are pretty interesting.

61
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: So the first one I chose, I guess just based

62
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: on flavor palette. So the birds Deli seasoned chips to me,

63
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 1: they sound delicious. My mouth is watering their palmesan flavor

64
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: with garlic and basil. So they're four dollars thirty at

65
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,839
Speaker 1: wells their six hundred grand bag. They before start health

66
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: rating and they're made for at least ninety six percent

67
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 1: Australian ingredients, so they're basically an Assie main product, so

68
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 1: they have eighty three percent potato. They use canola oil

69
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: as a second ingredient, corn starch, potato starch, and rice flour,

70
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:12,920
Speaker 1: and I think that starch is just to kind of

71
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: coat the chips in order for the seasoning to stick

72
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 1: to it. I think they use some thickeners, salt, garlic powder,

73
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: basil acidity regulators, some natural flavors, onion powder, and black pepper.

74
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,079
Speaker 1: So these are not gluten free. They actually contain wheat

75
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 1: because there's a little bit of that wheat flour as

76
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: I mentioned, which I think quotes the potato in order

77
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 1: for the seasoning to stick to it. So the ingredient list,

78
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 1: you know, isn't too bad kind of you know what

79
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: you would call, I guess a clean ingredient list. I

80
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: mean you're just getting herbs and a bit of potato

81
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: chips and nothing too fancy there. And when you look

82
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: at the ingredients. I think what we'll do, sir is

83
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: is use a per one hundred gram label because they're

84
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: all going to be different serving sizes. So per hundred

85
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: grams of chips, you've got seven hundred and twenty five kilogels,

86
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: nearly two grams of protein, nearly eight grams of fat,

87
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: with only point six of that being saturated fat. That's

88
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: a pretty good fat file. Nearly twenty grams of carbohydrates,

89
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: less than one gram of sugar and the carbo hydrates

90
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: obviously from the natural potato. Nearly two grams of dietary fiber,

91
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 1: which is actually fairly good, and three hundred and forty

92
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: five milligrams of sodium, so not ideal but not super high.

93
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 1: It's not like a cup of soup or anything like that.

94
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: So this is one product I thought was not the

95
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 1: best one out there. Probably delicious by any means, probably

96
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: one of the more better tasting ones, but in terms

97
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 1: of the hot to be variety all the ones that

98
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 1: I was looking through, probably not one of my favorite.

99
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 2: ZUZI.

100
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: I think there are ones that are a bit lower calorie,

101
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: definitely lower sodium, and had sort of a bit of

102
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: a shorter ingredient list as well.

103
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know it's hard because overall they're mostly potato.

104
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 2: But really, if you look at the difference in a

105
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 2: potato that's got zero fat in it, and then all

106
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 2: of a sudden you're adding canola oil and getting close

107
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 2: to eight grams of fat and hundred grams, which isn't

108
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 2: a huge serve. Let's be honest, it be what, oh,

109
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 2: I want to say, eight or ten of these kind

110
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 2: of chips. It's not insignificant an amount. And the ingredient

111
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 2: list is a bit messy, you know, like it's canola oil, starches,

112
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,160
Speaker 2: added rice, flower thickness. Like you know, if you get

113
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 2: a potato yourself, chop it up, put some extraversion olive

114
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 2: oil on it, and bake it, it's a million times

115
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,799
Speaker 2: better than this. So it's still got four health Star ratings,

116
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 2: which is where the health Star rating system falls down

117
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 2: because it's not looking at the profile of the ingredients.

118
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 2: So you know, if I, as a dietician, if a

119
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 2: client looked at this and thought I was recommending it,

120
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 2: I think it would not be a good look, you know,

121
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 2: just looking at that quick scan. Even though the proportions

122
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 2: are quite smaller, these ingredients you know, at eighty three

123
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,559
Speaker 2: percent potato, you're still having a fair whack of oil

124
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,160
Speaker 2: going through it, and it's not the best oil. So yeah,

125
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 2: it certainly wouldn't be on my shopping list. You know.

126
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 2: Is it as bad as deep fried chips in a

127
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,839
Speaker 2: fast food me or no? But considering what they're adding

128
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 2: to it to get those flavors, I think there are

129
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,919
Speaker 2: better ways to do it, and I'm hoping when we

130
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,479
Speaker 2: go down through the ones you've pick, there's probably better choices.

131
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,479
Speaker 2: But I haven't bought this deli range before. I know

132
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 2: they're out there, but I wouldn't or I wouldn't recommend

133
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,040
Speaker 2: them just based on that kind of messiness of the panel.

134
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 2: Am I being too harsh?

135
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: No? I don't think so at all. No, I think

136
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: there are some better varieties out there. Well, what really

137
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 1: surprised me, and again, as you mentioned, this is where

138
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: sort of the health star rating falls down. The majority

139
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,359
Speaker 1: of the chips in that in the range that I

140
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: was looking through, the frozen chips, most of them are

141
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: full star ratings. So you would automatically pick that up

142
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: and think, oh, this is a healthy product because it's

143
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 1: got four out of five stars. But what that actually

144
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 1: means is that the stars are based on the other

145
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,479
Speaker 1: the chips in their rain. So I didn't actually choose

146
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 1: like a beer battered one today, so those tended to

147
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 1: go down a little bit in terms of the health Stars.

148
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,480
Speaker 1: And so really the health stars are comparing like to like,

149
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: So we're just comparing frozen chips. We're not saying that

150
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: the ones with full stars are a better option than say,

151
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, Greek yoga tour, better option than some

152
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: rolled oats or something. We can't compare different products of

153
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 1: different products. We can only compare the frozen chips to

154
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 1: froz and chips. So this is a full start already

155
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 1: compared to other frozen chips on the market as well.

156
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's middle ground, isn't it. As I said, it

157
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 2: wouldn't be something I recommend or buy. But it's not

158
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 2: the worst thing in the supermarket, So let's keep in

159
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 2: mind where it sits true.

160
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: And definitely better than if you were going to you know,

161
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: you wanted some chippies for your dinner, and you're like, well,

162
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: should I go to the fish and chip shop and

163
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: order a couple of dollars whether the chippies or buy

164
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: this frozen bag from wol West. Absolutely, this is going

165
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 1: to be a better quality product, particularly if you put

166
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: in the oven and oven baked or into your air

167
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 1: fry versus throwing it into the deep fry. Absolutely will

168
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 1: be a better choice and probably more affordable as well.

169
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 2: True, and that's a really good comparison. It's a million

170
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 2: times better to have the homemade ones like this that

171
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 2: you're heating up than any of the fried deep fried

172
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 2: varieties from takeaway shops, which will inevitably be cooked in

173
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 2: a terrible oil oil that's probably reheated, so much worse

174
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,239
Speaker 2: for you. So yeah, if we're putting them in a position,

175
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 2: this is certainly middle ground, and I'd give it, you know,

176
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 2: six or six and a half out of ten.

177
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: And then the next one I've chosen, Susie, I had

178
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: to get some as you as your boys call them

179
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 1: orange chippies in there, so I've got the McCain straight

180
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: sweet potato chips. So this is a seven hundred and

181
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: fifty grand bag, so it's actually a bit bigger, and

182
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 1: it's five dollars eighty so the price is a little

183
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: bit more than the Bird's Eye won but it is

184
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: you need to get more of their product. This again

185
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 1: has four star House rating. Allergies may be present gluten

186
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: and milk, but it does contain soy and soybean, so

187
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 1: they're the allergies listed. So when you look at the

188
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: ingredient list, it's eighty seven percent sweet potato, so again

189
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: i'd still like to probably see that up over the

190
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: ninety percent. It has a batter, so these are slightly battered.

191
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: They've got maize flour, rice flour, modified maize starches and

192
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: some other starches and salt on that batter. They've got

193
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: some raising agents in it stabilize a little bit of

194
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,839
Speaker 1: tumeric in there, so I'm not sure if that would

195
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: maybe contribute to the color Susie or I'm not really

196
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 1: sure what the turmeric extract in there is for and

197
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 1: actually add colors into this as well. And sunflour oil

198
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: is the last ingredients. So an interesting ingredient list, wouldn't

199
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: you say it is?

200
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 2: And when you start to see color, I think the

201
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 2: first thing I noticed was that it's the sweet potatoes

202
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 2: coming from South Africa. For all the people who want

203
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 2: to support Australian it's not the best choice. The sweet

204
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 2: potato amounts higher than the other comparison one. But yeah,

205
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 2: I agree, they're sort of they're processing it up. You know,

206
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 2: there's a lot of starts just being added. And you know,

207
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:16,079
Speaker 2: what I thought was interesting was the proportion of sugars

208
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 2: was quite high. Nine grams of sugar per hundred grams.

209
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 2: It's not differentiating added to naturally occurring. And I couldn't

210
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 2: myself tell you what the natural proportion was in sweet potato,

211
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 2: do you know off the top of your head. No,

212
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 2: I'm sure it's not nine though.

213
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 1: It is higher than white potato, but not at the

214
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: top of my head. But I will go through the

215
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: nutrient panel. Sorry. So per hundred grams, five hundred and

216
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: sixty six kilodels, so it's a little bit lower than

217
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 1: the bird's eye one that we talked about. You've got

218
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 1: less than a gram of protein. You've got five and

219
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: a half grams of fat total, approximately one gram of

220
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 1: saturated fat, so still not too bad fat profile there.

221
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 1: You got nineteen grams of carbohydrates with nine grams of

222
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 1: sugars three point four grams of fibers, so that's actually

223
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,080
Speaker 1: a decent amount of fiber per one hundred grams and

224
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: two hundred and ten milligrams of sodium, so not super high,

225
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 1: but also not sort of insignificant as well because there

226
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: is added salt in this product. So again I would

227
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,439
Speaker 1: say this probably sits medium ground for me. Susie. I

228
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: think a lot of people sort of put sweet potato

229
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 1: in this sort of health halo category. I think the

230
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,079
Speaker 1: humble white potato is very nutritious. I have one don't

231
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,559
Speaker 1: enjoy sweet potato as much as I do white potato.

232
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: I will always use white potato over sweet potato. That's

233
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 1: just my personal preference. But I know a lot of

234
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,840
Speaker 1: people do actually just like the taste of sweet potato

235
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:31,839
Speaker 1: because it is sweeter. But I really do think you

236
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 1: can definitely make a better option for yourself at home.

237
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 1: And I think what really drags this down a little

238
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 1: bit is the fact that they're sort of slightly batters.

239
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: They have that little bit of batter on them, which

240
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 1: you know contributes to the higher fat percentage, higher calorie

241
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: percentage as well.

242
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 2: And I want to say I'm just having a little

243
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 2: quick look. I think there are better sweet potato options

244
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 2: in supermarket. I don't think I'm just looking. I don't

245
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,959
Speaker 2: think these are the ones that I buy off the

246
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 2: top of my head. So they're okay, and it's the

247
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 2: same as that potato version, but I do think nutritionally

248
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 2: and why I'm just looking through now. But when we

249
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 2: go through the next one, I'll see if I can

250
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 2: track it down and see if it's got a higher

251
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 2: percentage of sweet potato and if it's an Australian made product.

252
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 2: But you're right, you know it's better than a pub version.

253
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 2: It's not going to really hurt you in the grand

254
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 2: scheme of things. But if you're looking to minimize the

255
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 2: addition of food additives and processed foods, you know it's

256
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 2: not as clean as it could be. And yeah, I

257
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 2: would argue that slicing up the sweet potato yourself with

258
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,719
Speaker 2: some extra virgin olive oil in the air fry is

259
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 2: not a bad idea. But if you want to keep these,

260
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 2: you know, for a Saturday night when you've got some

261
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 2: quick fish and chips, it's not going to hurt you either.

262
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,319
Speaker 2: It's sort of splitting hairs about you know, how bad

263
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 2: about it is in the big scheme of things. Yeah,

264
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 2: so you know, middle ground again for me, I'd give

265
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 2: it a six and a half out of ten.

266
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 1: Definitely, And then the last one Susie I found and

267
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 1: these really did surprise me. So the woolws chunky steakhouse chips.

268
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,680
Speaker 1: So you get a killer bag for two dollars fifty,

269
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,199
Speaker 1: so this is very affordable. When you look at the

270
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: McCain's ones, you get five dollars eighty seven fifty and

271
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 1: the Bird's Eye ones was a smaller bag, only six

272
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,199
Speaker 1: hundred grams at four dollars thirty, so you're getting nearly

273
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: double the product for you know, less than half of

274
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 1: the costs. So affordability wise, very good. Made in Australia

275
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: from at least ninety nine percent Australian ingredients, so it's

276
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: an Audie homegrown product, four and a half star, so

277
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 1: this is a better option compared to the other frozen

278
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 1: chips out there. And if you look at the ingredient

279
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: list three ingredients SUSI, which we love to see, we've

280
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 1: got ninety six percent potato, a little bit of canola

281
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: oil and a little bit of dextros. The allergens are

282
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 1: gluten so oh that's because of the dextrosis from maze.

283
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 1: And then if you look at the nutrient panel per

284
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: one hundred grams, five hundred and fifty kilodeles, so compared

285
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: to the other two that we review, this is the

286
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 1: lowest calorie of the lowest kilodeal option. Three point one

287
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 1: grams of protein, three point seven grams of fat, less

288
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 1: than one gram of saturated so very low fat because

289
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 1: they don't actually they're actually only adding a very small

290
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 1: amount of oil because you've got ninety six percent potato

291
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 1: when they're you've got twenty grams of carbo hydrate, but

292
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 1: only point five grams of sugars. Compared to the sweet

293
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 1: potato ones, we've had nine grams of sugars, two point

294
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: seven grams of dietary fiber, and only thirty nine milligrams

295
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: of sodium, so very very low salt because they don't

296
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: actually add any salt into the product. So this is

297
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 1: my overall winner. SUSI from a cost perspective, an ingredient

298
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,319
Speaker 1: list perspective, and a nutrition panel perspective, must disclues, I

299
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 1: haven't actually tried them, haven't eaten them. Probably will go

300
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: and actually get these and pop them in my air

301
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: fry because I'm very much I will buy my normal potatoes,

302
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: creet them in a little bit of extraversion olive, will

303
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: add my own herbs and spices then throw them into

304
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,199
Speaker 1: the air fry. But I think for the convenience option

305
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 1: of this, I will definitely give these a whirl and

306
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 1: see how they turn out. So this is my pick

307
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 1: of the bunch. Quite surprisingly, I agree.

308
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 2: I'm excited as well, because one, how long can you

309
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 2: spend in that frozen section before you start to get

310
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 2: really cold and leave? So I have never looked at

311
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 2: this product either. I think it's disappointing that they've added

312
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 2: some mazed deck stross in there, because there's very few

313
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 2: options for people who need gluten free chips. Because I

314
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 2: did look at that quite recently. I was putting together

315
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 2: gluten free trolley and I couldn't find much frozen food

316
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 2: at all that was gluten free for people who needed it,

317
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 2: which is disappointing. But I'm with you. It's Australian, it's

318
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 2: cost effective, it's hardly got anything in it. It's mostly potato.

319
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 2: You know, hopefully they taste good, but yeah, you can't

320
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 2: go past this is a really good product. And I'm

321
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 2: also wondering if they've got a sweet potato version, because

322
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 2: they're great. I would buy these one hundred percent, and

323
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 2: I probably will now that we've gone through the little listings,

324
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 2: how I'm realizing that the sweet potato ones I think

325
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 2: I'm buying are also South Africanas. Any wrong with that,

326
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 2: but we're trying to support Australian So yeah, I'll actually

327
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 2: give these steakhouse chips a go. And I'm wondering if

328
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 2: they do have a sweet potato variety.

329
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 1: Not that I could see, but hey, Wilworth, if you're listening,

330
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: you're doing well, keep going. Give us a sweet potato

331
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: variety as well.

332
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 2: Credit where credit's due to the Supermarket's true.

333
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a great product. And I really love my

334
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 1: big chunky chip, so I like that these are the

335
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: thick steakhouse ones as well. So I'm a big fan.

336
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 1: I can't wait to rush down to the shops and

337
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: actually grab these, So it gets a big green light

338
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 1: for me, Susie.

339
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's nice because so often we spend time

340
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 2: criticizing supermarkets, so we want to be clear that when,

341
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 2: as I said, they're doing something good, we want to

342
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 2: support them. So yeah, it's a really good product. Four

343
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 2: point five health star ratings, nothing hardly anything being added.

344
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 2: The sodium is really low, you know, that's a tenth

345
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 2: of some of the sodium numbers. You can see how

346
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 2: good it is. The fiber is really strong. They're leaving

347
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 2: some skin on those potatoes. But yeah, the question will

348
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 2: be whether they taste good. But I'm sure at an

349
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 2: air fry they will taste pretty good. And I'm absolutely

350
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 2: I'm with you. I will actually try this brand now,

351
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 2: you know, having a closer look at the nutritionals because

352
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 2: I have done a quick sort of look at what's

353
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 2: out there and from what I can see, most of

354
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 2: the sweet potato fries are coming from overseas and most

355
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 2: do they have that kind of coating on them, which

356
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 2: is increasing the food attitudes that are going through. They're

357
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 2: not as perhaps good as we would like them to be.

358
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 2: So absolutely thumbs up from me on this product. I'll

359
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,360
Speaker 2: be giving it a go. And it just goes to

360
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 2: show you just never know with products, which is why

361
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 2: we have of course nutrition Catch product review to try

362
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 2: and make it easier, because you literally do need a

363
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 2: degree as well as some really good glasses to see

364
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 2: what's going on in these product.

365
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 1: And the Humble Potato the Humble Spot takes it out

366
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: today first prize gold medal.

367
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 2: Yes, it thumbs up from both of us, and we'll

368
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 2: let you know on an Instagram story very soon if

369
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 2: we've tried them with the kids and how we go

370
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 2: and if we can track down a better sweet potato

371
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 2: chip option, because we're not really that happy with it.

372
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,239
Speaker 2: What's out there and what we've found today.

373
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: No, I think definitely if you can make your own,

374
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 1: do it. But these are very good if you're liking

375
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 1: a thick, chunky, white potato chip option. This is very

376
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 1: very affordable and Aussie made as well, so we really.

377
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 2: Do like that, true, true, true.

378
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: So that brings us to the end of the Nutrition

379
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 1: Catch product review Susie. It always goes so very quickly,

380
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 1: and we could talk about frozen chips all day long,

381
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 1: but it's making me hungry, so I should go. And
