Nabisco Introduces Garden Harvest Toasted Chips with Each Variety Containing Real Pieces of Fruits or Vegetables

16/08/07 Move over potato chips, there's a new chip in town that's delicious and better for you in more ways than one! With almost two-thirds of Americans currently having a bag of potato chips in the cupboard, those seeking better-for-you options are sure to be pleased with the introduction today of Nabisco Garden Harvest Toasted Chips. With 60 percent less fat than the leading regular fried potato chips, new Garden Harvest Toasted Chips are baked with 100% whole grain and provide a good source of dietary fiber.

Garden Harvest Toasted Chips are tasty triangular-shaped, crispy chips that not only satisfy the sweet or savory senses, but are also made with real pieces of fruits or vegetables, providing a half serving of fruits or vegetables in each one-ounce serving (about 16 chips).

"We are excited to be introducing Garden Harvest Toasted Chips as a way to provide a great new product offering for those looking for flavorful variety in their better-for-you snacking options," said Haiyan Wang, senior brand manager of new product innovations at Kraft Foods.

Garden Harvest Toasted Chips are available in four flavorful varieties including Tomato Basil, Vegetable Medley, Apple Cinnamon and Banana. Real pieces of carrots, tomatoes, broccoli, onions, spinach and other vegetables are blended together to season the Tomato Basil and Vegetable Medley chips for a satisfying, savory snack, while the real pieces of apples and bananas in the Apple Cinnamon and Banana varieties, respectively, provide a lightly-sweet tasting option.

With zero grams of trans fat per serving, no cholesterol or saturated fat, and only 120 calories per one once serving, all Garden Harvest Toasted Chips varieties qualify for Kraft's Sensible Solution program. This portfolio includes better-for-you offerings that are perfect for people who want to snack and still stay on track with their sensible eating habits.

Available in supermarkets nationwide in the cracker aisle starting July 30, 2007, Garden Harvest Toasted Chips are available in six-ounce re-closeable bags at a suggested retail price of $2.99 each.
