Ah, summer. Time for road trips, backyard barbecues and lazy days at the beach. Wherever summer takes you, don’t forget to pack the snacks! Branch out from the greasy potato chip or bland pretzel and try Flamous Falafel Chips - the Chips Made for Hummus Dip. And for snacking right from the bag!

Flamous (a merging of being “Famous for Flavor”) Their unique 21 ingredient blend of herbs, spices, vegetables and legumes (beans) will take your taste buds straight to Nirvana. Their numerous certifications including non-GMO, vegan, gluten-free and kosher (and also free of most major allergens) mean they a smart choice for your body. Additionally,ounce for ounce, Flamous Falafel Chips have 10 times the antioxidant value than that of green tea or vegetable juice! Yup- they're healthy AND good for you!

The chips come in 4 flavors:

Original Falafel - Green Bag- These are crunchier, thinner (but still sturdy), and just as flavorful as the Organic older sister, that helped start the brand off, that you may be familiar with! They are perfect plain, or as a dip chip! 

Sprouted Multi-Grain Rosemary & Thyme- Blue Bag- My fav! The flavor is a blend of herbs, vegetables, spices, beans and grains, that all come together for an unmatched flavor, that will have you snacking straight from the bag! No dip needed.

Spicy Falafel- Red bag- Miss Grace's fav These are sure to add a kick to any of your dips.with their dash of cayenne pepper! Miss Grace says they taste more like your typical flavored tortilla chip.

Spicy Fiesta - Orange and red bag- All the guys picked these as their fav! With a nice mild heat from chili, garlic, red pepper and paprika, they have a crunchy texture, and each bite burst with flavor. these were declared the ultimate dip chip, perfect for some salsa, guacamole or crawfish dip!

You can find all the varieties at Whole Foods, The Fresh Market, Kroger, Mother’s Market, Amazon.com and other health food stores throughout the United States. once you try them, you'll be hooked like my family was!
