"THE ORIGINAL HARDBITE tm POTATO CHIPS" the only truly Canadian kettle cooked potato chip.

The difference between our Hardbite potato chips and conventional potato chips is the method of cooking. Hardbite means kettle cooked by hand, the old fashion way, batch by batch. Through storage, potatoes change the moisture and sugar content. Regular adjustments have to be made to cooking times and temperatures.
Hardbite tm potato chips are never cooked over 300 degrees. This is a true hands on,
kettle style potato chip.

The HARDBITE tm POTATO CHIPS brand is made with non hydrogenated mid oleic vegetable oils. It offers a balanced fatty acid profile, high on monounsaturates that include a reasonable level of polyunsaturated fat (linoleic - an essential fatty acid ) that is low in saturated fat. It has one of the highest alpha-tocopherol contents in plant oils, making it a good source of natural Vitamin E.
Our vegetable oil does not require hydrogenation, it is a trans fatty acid free alternative. The liquid kind. The fatty acid profile of our sunflower oil is very similar to olive oil without the strong taste. The higher level of oleic acid makes our vegetable oil more stable when used in cooking. It imparts a pleasing taste in cooked food because it contains sufficient amount of the essential linoleic acid. The saturated fatty acid level is under 10 % preferred by today's consumer.

We do not use chemical de-foamers, additives, or other synthetic agents added in processing the oil.
Our ingredients: Himalayan crystal salt, non hydrogenated mid oleic vegetable oils, and torula yeast
