Popchips Are Pretty Good

Picked up some of these Popchips at Target tonight. They're potato chips...but not baked or fried. They are pressure cooked. And I can verify the barbecue ones are pretty freaking good.

Price wise...I think they were pretty expensive since it was only a 3 oz bag..but you're not paying for any of the oil that's soaked into the chips.

1 oz Popchips has 12o calories, 0 cholesterol, 4 grams of fat, 0 grams of saturated fat

vs

1 oz Lay's regular chips: 130 calories, 10 grams of fat, 3 grams of saturated fat

The popped texture of the potatoes is nice and light. They are only 100 calories a bag, but there are lots of chips in the bag so it's a great snack. The ingredient list is also pretty wholesome without any strange chemicals added.

CRV vs. Element vs. RAV4

*See the Rav4 update here . Ok, so I've been looking for a mini-suv and I've narrowed it down to the (3) choices above. Here are the Pros/Cons I've found while looking and test driving these over the last few weeks: CRV Pro: Conventional suv styling . Nothing outrageous;likely to stay in-style for a long time Sunroof and side impact airbags are standard on the EX trim Edmunds lists it as #1 as the lowest True Cost to Own SUV for 2006 Constistanly wins Edmund's top awards in champion like fashion Con: Stereo kind of sucks. They have a tape deck in there...this is 2006 you know. A/C compressors seem to be blowing up on a regular basis , right out of warranty (and Honda makes you play Customer Relations Roulette to see if they're going to cover the $2,000 repair). Arm rests are thin, short and pathetic. They're too high to be comfortable (this can be remedied by the armrest console upgrade ). Element Pro: Best stereo of the lot. XM Satellite radio, 270 ...

Swiffer Sweep + Vac (4* out of 5)

Image
Ok, since my homies over at the Productopia are having a difficult time getting a post up, I'd like to comment on the Swiffer Sweep +Vac . I bought one of these after looking for a lightweight sweeper (and after my brother found this one for me). I paid about $28 for it, and I must say it appears to work very well. Rechargeable. My only concern is this; If/when this product fades away, how am I going to get the sock-like filters that it uses? Eh...anyway, I'd say get one if you need a decent, inexpensive electric sweeper!
