The Truth Behind the BagDoritos, Lays, Hot Cheetos, Fritos, Takis, these are just a few of the many different types of chips that are in the world, but why are we so obsessed with consuming this product? Eating chips is not a bad thing as long as you can control the amount of what you eat. Chips tend to be addictive, and recent research confirms that some chips contain an ingredient that can cause cancer. But my main point is to reveal the truth about the danger of eating spicy chips; Flaming Hot Cheetos specifically, and how it can affect your body and health. We all know that chips aren't the best thing to eat all the time. Most chips are high in sodium, contain high fructose corn syrup, and contain a high percentage of fat. Mix everything together and you get a perfect combination of a very addictive snack. People of all ages; children, adolescents, adults, everyone consumes or has consumed this product at some point. It's a tasty snack and they have a variety of flavors to choose from. Think of the craziest flavor you can imagine and I assure you they have that kind of flavored chips. It's a very accessible snack. You can find chips everywhere. In petrol stations, supermarkets, vending machines, airports and even schools. It's also very cheap. For a good sized bag the cost will be no more than one dollar and fifty cents. What's wrong, right? This all sounds great, but what we neglect to see or pay attention to is that this is fine for now, but what about in the long run? Today you see children who can't even speak yet; the children who are still in strollers, you see them eating chips. Once again in our eyes it seems nice to give them something to munch on, but let's stop and think that... middle of paper......ted States. By not exercising and eating chips we only gain unhealthy weight. If we exchanged an apple every time we ate chips, we would be very healthy as a society. Eating chips is not a bad thing, eating too much of them is. We must be informed about what we eat. Read the nutrition labels on the back and do the calculations. The producers hide the truth so it doesn't seem so bad. Be careful with chips that contain high levels of acrylamide because they pose some serious risk factors. We don't always know the truth about what we're eating and how dangerous they really can be. Now just think for a moment, after all you have read and learned, you want your children to live; what seems like a helpless, but serious addiction? Would you put your son or daughter in a situation like that? Now that you know the truth behind the bag, educate yourself and spread the word.
