Bill and I have been fans of Hippie Chips since they first came on the market a few years ago. Their Chocolate Cashew Cookies are so moist and fudge like! They melt in your mouth. I love snacking on their Original Coconut Chips and I also use them broken up on a vegan chocolate torte that I make. They are sooooooooooo much better than that dried “fancy” coconut you get in the baking isle of the grocery store. Actually, I can’t stand that stuff.
So, when I was offered a package of their new Coconut Chips Flavor, I couldn’t refuse. I had the choice of their Coconut Bacon or Tamari and Cracked Pepper. I chose the Coconut Bacon.
When I received it, the first thing I did was smell it. It sure smelled like bacon! Then I tasted it. It has a very subtle bacon flavor. I usually like to try product recipes as well for review purposes however, the bacon flavor is so subtle that I am sure it would get lost completely.
Would I buy it? Yes, I would but only to snack on, not to cook with. I also bought a bag of their Tamari and Cracked Pepper Flavor. I just had to try those as well.
I give the Coconut Bacon flavor a 3.5/5 and the Tamari and Coconut Cracked Pepper flavor a 4/5.
I was sent one package of the Bacon flavor for my honest review.
I haven’t seen these here but I’ll make a point of looking for them next trip to town. I’ll probably love them since I’m a hippie at heart 🙂
I beleive they are only in Canada for now Vicki but hopefully they will make their way to the U.S. soon.
I would love to try these! With the bacon flavor, were they still vegan?
Yes they are vegan! I am a strict vegan so all food items and recipes I cover here are vegan.
Yay, that’s awesome news!
They look delicious. I have seen something similar at Target here, but I don’t think it’s this brand. Looks like I could get them at Amazon (of course!) or take a trip to Canada!!
These sound interesting.
Wow. I think I’d love these.
I have been looking for these since last year and haven’t found them yet! I did find another brand of Coconut Chips from Whole Foods but am still waiting for these to come to the US. Coconut Chips are so yummy!
