Chip “ os” and Its Healthier Counterpart – Beanfields Bean ChipsDo you love The Chips that End in “os”?If you do, then you might develop a love-hate relationship with me after reading this piece. Chances are you’ll hate me for bringing up the devils that surround …. “os” and these kinds of chips again. But, after a while, you’ll also love me for reminding you about these things once more and for adding more reasons for you to ultimately turn your back on them.  Frankly speaking, how much XXX “os” can you eat from one sitting? I bet you can eat more than 12 chips, right? Well, that’s not surprising given its addictive qualities. And I specifically mentioned 12 chips, because that is equivalent to 1 serving. You get the following for every 12 chips of XXX “os”:150 calories8 grams of fat, including 1 gram of saturated fat180 mg of sodium (8% of the daily maximum intake)No vitamins and minerals (practically speaking)2 grams of fiberAlthough the nutrition facts at the back say that it doesn’t have trans-fats, XXX “os” does have vegetable oil. And in the food industry, one practice that is commonly observed is the addition of hydrogen to the oil (in a process called hydrogenation) to make it more solid and to prolong its shelf life. And the problem with hydrogenation is that it leads to the formation of harmful trans-fats. We all know that trans-fats can result in a host of negative effects on the body including heart disease and stroke. How Long Does it Take to Burn 150 Calories? For an individual weighing 150 lbs., burning 150 calories could be done by doing either of the following activities:Jog for 19 minutesRide a bicycle at a pace of 10 to 12 miles per hour for 22 minutesJoin an aerobics class for 22 minutesPlay soccer for 19 minutesHike outdoors for 22 minutesWalk at a slow pace for 53 minutesSwim at a vigorous pace for 19 minutesJoin a ballet class for 22 minutesScrub the floor for 30 minutesWhy XXX “os” Are so Addictive?If you’ve ever consumed a pack of XXX “os” by yourself, then you should tell from experience how addictive it can be. And that limiting yourself to just 12 chips or less is already a tough battle to win. But, why is that so? What’s in it that makes you crave for more?The New York Times broke down the facts from Steven Witherly’s book entitled, “Why Humans Like Junk Food.” The cheesy powder is primarily responsible for XXX “os”’ addictive prowess. Who doesn’t love cheese? It’s just simply irresistibly delicious. And XXX “os” capitalizes on that fact. Moreover, scientifically, cheese contains proteins that once digested are converted into casomorphins, which are morphine-like compounds. Yes, that kind of morphine. Now you know why it’s just so addictive!And the for XXX “os” dust that sticks on your fingers is more addictive since they are more concentrated. So, you might want to skip licking those off your fingers next time (if you find the urge to eat again).But, that doesn’t stop there!XXX “os” has also been intentionally engineered in a way that you’ll always want for more. Its complex aroma and taste were specifically formulated with the end goal that you won’t experience what scientists call as “sensory-specific satiety” or sensory burnout. Hence, you won’t feel a fullness tha
