I was a big fan of Pirate’s Booty for a while last year. It’s a puffed cheese snack and it fueled late night Diablo II sessions without puffing up the fat cells. After I had eaten too much of it, though, it started reminding me of those new environmentally friendly packing peanuts that dissolve in water. So I haven’t had any in a while. But William Grimes of the NY Times recently tried it out, after having been pestered by acquaintances about it. Turns out Good Housekeeping verified his disbelief that the product was as low-fat as it claimed. The Good Housekeeping Institute sent bags out to independent labs for analysis. One ounce of Booty contained 8.5 grams of fat and 147 calories. The bags were labeled as having 2.5 grams of fat and 120 calories per serving. Oops. When contacted, the company claimed that they knew about the problem and the cause was a new manufacturing process and the bags would be relabeled. They then recalled the misleading bags. Currently, the information on their site claim 5 grams of fat and 128 calories. Ah well. I am much more enamored of Good Health’s Rosemary Olive Oil Potato Chips. They are so full-flavored that you can be satisfied after just a few chips (though you may find yourself eating up the entire bag).
