Who knew you could just crisp cauliflower like this and keep it's original shape? I didn't! But alas, here we are reviewing cauliflower trees!These crisps come in a nifty, resealable (more on that later) bag perfect for snacking. While it doesn't appear that there is a ton of product included, it did last me several snacking sessions. Not exactly 5 like the bag states, but still…does anyone get that many servings from one bag? The brand of these is EAPC 'Global Food Trading' but it is a USA based company so I assume that means it's made here? Anyway, most of the ingredients are very simple and seem okay. I'm not an expert but there is some ingredients in the 'Sea Salt Seasoning' that are interesting. Silicon Dioxide? It is listed as safe but it just stands out to me.Flavor wise, I don't immediately jump to cauliflower. It isn't super reminiscent or strong of anything to me. Slightly sweet, slightly salty & very crunchy. At first I wasn't sure if I liked it, but it's very oddly satisfying. Now I try it and love it. It gives me the crunch of a kettle cooked chip without all of the things that I don't like about potato chips. It is quite broken up but that doesn't generally bother me at all.The one thing that really frustrates me is the reseal on the bag. Ughhhh! It's like a zip lock top but the two sides don't fit properly together. I get reusable bags with this at times that don't close and it drives me up the wall. Sure I could just put them in a container or another bag but that fully defeats the purpose of the built in closure. Tiny fix that would make a huge impact.Hopefully I didn't miss anything. I will update in the future if so. Hope this helped! :)I was very happily surprised by these snacks. I have had many cauliflower foods and unfortunately, alot of these types of snacks have a fart like aroma...I mean it is cauliflower after all...haha. these however did not have any funk to them. They were a very mild salted batter flavor. They come with little florets as well as cuts of stem so you get a good mixture of textures to your snacks. They also go great in ramen or on salads as they keep a very solid crunch even after being wet for a whileThese snacks are incredibly addictive. Salty and a little bit sweet. Crunchy but not hard. Packed full of flavor. They are not, however, healthy. They are deep fried, high in sodium, and the "sea salt" flavoring is just that, flavoring. "Sea salt" is the name of the flavor, not what it's flavored with. The sea salt flavor has msg, garlic, soy sauce, sugar, and a few other things. Unlike what the packaging says they certainly do not "preserve the original taste of vegetables." These taste much like snacks you can get at an Asian market, which isn't bad, it's just disingenuous.Use your own judgment on whether or not it's worth it, but I won't be buying these at their current price. If the price came down I'd buy them in a heartbeat.These EAPC Cauliflower Chips have the same flavor as the dried mushroom snacks by the same brand. I do taste some cauliflower flavor but not that easy to tell. Also don't regard this as a healthy snack as they are actually high in sodium. One serving contains 105 mg of sodium and each bag has 5 servings.Worth trying but don't expect 'healthy snacks'.Theses cauliflower bites comes in a resealable bag. Now the flavor is okay but I do got to say it has a nice crunch. Not saying this is my favorite but it will do the trick for snacking. It is a great way to kick potato chips of your keto. Now to close the bag is a bit of a headache as the sides don't meet up. But I just put them in a resealable container.EAPC Cauliflower Chips are a product of China and come in a resealable foil lined bag. The 5.3 oz bag contains 5 suggested servings.Each serving of 30 grams (⅓ cup) has 140 calories,7g fat including 3g of saturated fat, 105mg sodium, 14g carbs including 4g fiber, 9g sugar of which 7g is added sugars, plus 2g protein. It also provides 50.4mg of calcium, 42.6mg of Vitamin C and 31.2mg of Vitamin K.I like cauliflower and I like crisps but I wasn’t sure how I would like this product with added sugar because I don’t usually associate sweet with cauliflower. However, it blends well and is not overly sweet. The touch of sweetness complements the salty taste nicely.The ingredient list includes: Cauliflower, Vegetable Oil, Maltose Syrup, Glucose, Sea Salt Seasoning (Maltodextrin, White Sugar, Salt, Monosodium Glutamate, Garlic Powder, Soy Sauce Powder, Sea Salt, Yeast Extract Substance, Silicon Dioxide, Anhydrous Citric Acid, Disodium Guanylate), Salt.These are quite tasty and make an enjoyable snack. They are super crispy and have a good flavor. The bag that I got has a Best Before date that is almost 8 months in the future.* EAPC Cauliflower Chips, Crunchy Cauliflower Bites Snacks, Healthy Cauliflower Crisps Veggie Snacks for Adults Kids, Plant-Based Made of Fresh Cauliflower, Sea Salt Flavor, 150g/5.3oz *The texture and crunch is perfect. The flavor is fantastic. My only issue is they are massively over seasoned. Taking it from a healthy snack to NOT a healthy snack. Tons of sodium. Overpowering the natural cauliflower flavor. I would order these again if they cut the seasoning back 80% at least.Who would have thought cauliflowers would make good snack? But these really prove me wrong because they are so tasty and addictive. The cauliflowers are crunchy and taste both sweet and salty. However, don't be fooled by the way it looks because even though it looks just like a piece of cauliflower, it's packed with calories; just 1/3 of a cup has 140 calories so it's not a very healthy snack and I definitely would not eat this to lose weight. It's still a very tasty snack but make sure to eat it with caution.
