Slim Chips: When you need to lose some weight

September 11, 2008 by Geeks are Sexy | 6 comments

Have you ever looked at the nutritional information on the side of a bag of chips? 150 calories, 11 grams of fat… FOR 10 CHIPS!!!! Can anyone here truly stop at 10 chips, especially when lounging in front of a 2-hour movie?

Well, for the health-conscious geeks among you, Icelandic designer Hafsteinn Júlíusson has come up with the perfect solution, the 0-calorie, paper-based chip. Named “Slim Chip” for obvious reasons, the no-fat snack is made out of edible, non-toxic paper and comes in three varieties: peppermint, blueberry and sweet potato. And as far as taste is concerned, the designer puts it best: “It’s like eating tasty air.”

Since Slim Chips are only a concept for now, you’ll have to excuse me as I go soak a piece of letter-sized paper in some barbecue sauce. Got to find an alternative solution while Mr. Júlíusson commercializes his idea, right?

      On another note, who the hell eats Peppermint flavored chips, or Blueberry? I can understand Sweet Potato because I’m from the south, but I’m with Kiltak, some BBQ or Ranch Flavored would actually sell…most diet food tastes like shit anyway, don’t purposely make it that way

  3. i bet it wouldt taste much different than a sticky note
