Aria Farm meat chips
Have any Kiwis tried these frozen meat chips (made in Hamilton)? They come in lamb, chicken, pork & beef & all have less than 1g per 100g of carbohydrate (each one has different amount).
We found some lamb chips in our supermarket freezer today, read the ingredients list & took some home to eat for lunch. They were delicious. It cost under $5 for 500g which the two of us ate at one sitting - a bit greedy - they could go further!
They are quick to cook as you put them in a pre-heated oven, still frozen, for 10 minutes. They can also be fried or grilled.
Ingredients per 100g serving for the lamb ones are -
18.3g protein, 12.4g fat (6.4 saturated fat), 0.2g carb, 0g sugar, 298mg potassium, 138 mg sodium, 2.2mg iron
They contain over 97% meat plus herbs & spices, seaweed extract as gelling agent, vege protein, acidity regulators & ascorbic acid (vitC) as anti-oxidant . These additives seem natural.
They are not crisp (the word chip refers to the shape I guess) & are spoiled by overcooking so don't try to crisp them. The texture is more like luncheon sausage. Great for a quick snack - lots of creative possibilities. Any comments?
