veggie straws

Hollow produce snacks

Veggie straws are a snack food shaped like short hollow tubes, marketed as a healthier alternative to potato chips.

Despite the name and the vegetable powder in the ingredients, they're mostly potato starch and offer little nutritional advantage over regular chips: I bought veggie straws thinking I was being healthy.
