Good combination of veggies- everything is good
The only downside of these if that there's not much per container and some of the chips get broken.We really love these. Ours had several PODS of okra in each pack that tastes a lot like crispy fried okra! None were broken. There are also a little Bunches of broccoli that were extremely tasty. the chips are excellent although we had some that were dThe package says that they are fried freeze dried, but the oil level is light and it's just enough to make them tasty.My family really likes these. I wish there were more in each bag.

Great Crunchy Snack!
I am always trying to eat a little healthier (easier said than done, right?), but eating vegetables, especially in variety, can be inconvenient and hard. I often don't enjoy the cooking or chewing of vegetables like okra, sweet potatoes, or broccoli. I also don't always have access to a microwave at work, so softer, easier to eat vegetables aren't always an option.These bags of vacuum fried veggies are a great way to get in an extra serving (or two!) of veggies in a convenient, tasty way. They are very easy to eat, and only leave a little bit of dust/residue from the seasoning and parts of the veggies that naturally fall off a bit. The serving size is a whole bag, so you can enjoy the flavor without having to portion!I love the crunch of the veggies - it makes it more satisfying to eat. There is a light seasoning on the veggies (which includes sugar, but apparently not enough to classify it as 'added sugar') which definitely adds some flavor to it. I would be curious to try the veggies with just a light salt on it instead of the rice bran oil seasoning.Overall, it's a nice snack with good flavors - but you definitely have to like veggies in order to appreciate it, I think. I would consider purchasing again for the quality and convenience of it.

Keep getting pumpkin instead of sweet potato...
I REALLY love how the sweet potato chips taste, but everytime I've ordered them (3 times) I've been sent the pumpkin chips.I wish there was some better quality control because I would definitely get more if I knew I would actually get what I ordered.

Good Snack
Three pack of vacuum fried vegetables. Each bag has a little over an ounce of different mixed vegetables inside. You get the okra, broccoli, pumpkin and sweet potato. All are nicely dehydrated, in their true form and they're easy to eat. The vegetables have a good taste- they have a crunchy light texture and lots of flavor. Each bag has 10 grams of fat and 180 calories. They're gluten free and vegan. They make a good snack and can easily be taken on the go.

Tasty, crunchy snack
These are delicious. They are light and crispy and full of flavor. I have the mixed veggies which consists of broccoli, okra, sweet potato, and pumpkin. They are vacuum fried and are tastier than than veggie chips. Each bag is one serving, although I found them enough to last me the afternoon by eating a handful at a time. The only negative is they are a little pricey.

Yummy (even though they're veggies!)
These dried veggie snacks are so good! They remind me of freeze-dried veggies in texture. All the flavors are good--even the okra. I wasn't sure if I'd like the okra, but it has a very mild taste. The broccoli has retained its flavor, and though I don't normally like broccoli all that much, I like this and wish there were more in each pack.The only complaint I have is that the bags are so tiny. Each one is only supposed to be one serving, but thankfully I can get about three servings out of each one if just taking a bit for a mini snack. I wish they packed a bit more in each bag.

Great crunch, but terrible taste.
Ok, so these are super healthy. We get it. But THESE TASTE SO BAD, especially the okra. AVOID THE OKRA. A toddler spit these out, I spit these out, and the dog spit these out and looked at me offended. The only exception being the sweet potato “chips” that were few and far between. I would gladly demolish a bag of those in the name of health.So there are snack options out there that are comparable and appear healthier such as baked goods, but studies show that “baked” snacks contain a high amount of the cancer-causing chemical acrylamide, despite being lower in fat. Boooooo! Whereas, vacuum-fried foods apparently have less carcinogens because the boiling point is reduced. At this point, we’re at an impasse of choosing your vices because it seems like all the packaged foods are out to get us. Buuuuut despite being a health-conscious consumer, I am NOT putting myself (or others!!) through the mental torture of eating these. I know I’m being a drama queen, and I am fortunate enough to have extensive food options versus impoverished countries, but these really do not suit my taste buds.Despite the awful taste of these vacuum-fried snacks (ESPECIALLY THE OKRA), I am glad that I entered the world of vacuum-fried snacks. Although I will NEVER repurchase these, I will definitely be on the lookout for vacuum-fried sweet potato snacks.
