Good Natured Selects

Snacks, snacks, snacks.  I love my snacks, particularly chip-like things these days.  Which lead me to Good Natured Selects.

"Good Natured Selects is all about those little snacking victories. That’s why we set out to craft a recipe made with real ingredients and packed with so much flavor it satisfies your snack cravings."

I'm unable to find much information on the company, nor an explanation of the 'Selects' part of the name, as they don't seem to have non-Select offerings, but their product lines all feature veggie forward crispy snacks, such as the Toasted Thins, Puffs, and crazy triangle shaped "Veg-ables".  All are gluten-free, non GMO, etc.  I've tried the thins, as my niece is recently gluten-free, and I'm exploring all sorts of snacks with her.

Toasted Thins

"These baked crisps are the tastiest way to eat your vegetables. In fact, they contain a half serving of real vegetables in every serving. Now you can get the goodness of carrots, bell peppers and spinach in a snack that the whole family will enjoy."

The toasted thins come in flavors like multigrain, ranch, and cheddar cheese, and all have a very vegetable forward base. 

Ranch.

"Starting with a blend of carrots, bell peppers and spinach, these carefully crafted thins are then baked and seasoned with the tangy buttermilk flavor of ranch to deliver the perfect combination of flavor and crunch. With a half serving of vegetables per serving, these Vegetable Crisps are here for the win!"

These are fairly interesting chips, er, toasted thins.  They are crispy and have the same satisfying form factor of a traditional chip.  And the base is more potato forward than I expected, while you can taste the veggies a little, the dominant flavor is still potato, in the direction of the taste of instant mashed potatoes, but, in a crispy form (which, makes sense, the first two ingredients are dried potatoes and potato starch).  The taste is familiar, but a bit different, and a bit healthy tasting.

The small ridges hold seasoning well, and although they don't taste like traditional ranch to me, the flavor is quite savory, a bit creamy, a bit zesty.  Good garlic/onion/sour cream flavors.

Overall, they are decent.  I found myself liking them at first bite, but after a few, they trended a touch too healthy-vegetabley for me, but, they really are a reasonable choice for a veggie forward item.  ***.
