10 Healthy Alternatives to Regular Crisps For Your Store

What healthy alternatives to regular crisps can you sell in your store?

Who doesn’t love snacking? Crisps are one of the easiest and most popular snacking options, however, traditionally they certainly haven’t been the healthiest. Good old-fashioned crisps tend to be high in calories, saturated fat and salt.

With many consumers looking for healthier snack alternatives to improve their lifestyles, it’s essential that your store keeps up with the demand for healthier and more nutritious snacking options.

The demand for healthy snacking alternatives provides an opportunity for retailers to appeal to a wider audience. By catering to these changes in consumers' dietary requirements, by providing a varied selection of healthy snacks, retailers can ensure they stay relevant and give an incentive for consumers to continue shopping at their stores.

We've pulled together some of our favourite healthy alternatives to regular crisps that you can offer to your customers. Vegetable crisps, quinoa crisps, plantain crisps… we’ve got all the best options to help satisfy their crunchy and salty cravings.

Is it OK to eat crisps every day?

Although crisps are extremely more-ish and delicious, it’s wise not to snack on them every day. It’s not necessarily ‘not OK’ to eat crisps every day but it’s perhaps better, due to them being so high in starch, to view them as more of a ‘treat’ than a typical snack.

Your customers will therefore expect to see a variety of healthy crisp options in stores, so they can satisfy their crisp cravings whilst sticking to their healthier lifestyle.

What snacks can I offer my customers to eat instead of crisps?

With consumers seeking out health credentials for their lifestyle, there’s never been a bigger demand for stores to provide healthy crisp alternatives. Although crisps are many shoppers' go-to snack, there have never been more (just as crunchy and flavoursome) alternative options, you’ll be torn as to which ones to stock.

What are the healthiest crisps alternatives your shoppers will be looking for?

We’ve pulled together some of our favourite healthy crisp alternatives to help consumers find healthy snacking options to suit their lifestyle change. Having these types of healthy crisp options available in your store could give your shop an edge against competitors.

Regular vs Popped Crisps

Unlike regular crisps that are deep fried, popped crisps are placed in a pressurised container to ‘pop’. Popped crisps are typically, due to their lightness, much lower in calories than regular crisps.

Regular vs Baked Crisps

Baked crisps are much lower in fat and calories than regular crisps, and also lower in Vitamin C.

Rice Cakes and Crackers

Another healthier alternative to regular crisps is rice cakes and crackers. Light and crunchy, these are tasty by themselves or paired with a flavoursome dip or spread!

Make sure to keep an eye out for salt content, as this can vary depending on the various flavours.

Vegetable Crisps

With the same appealing texture as regular chips, vegetable crisps are a great healthy crisp alternative that will succeed in satisfying those salty and crunchy cravings.

However veggie crisps can often have a higher fat and salt content, so make sure to read the packet.
