About Panera kettle chips
Panera Kettle Chips are a crunchy snack offered to complement meals at Panera Bread, known for their thick-cut texture and kettle-cooking process that enhances flavor and crispness. Originating from the traditional kettle-frying method, these chips offer a richer taste profile compared to standard potato chips. Nutritionally, a single serving (typically 1.5 oz) provides around 220 calories, 13g of fat, and 230mg of sodium. They contain 2g of protein and a modest amount of fiber (2g), with potatoes as the primary ingredient, accompanied by sunflower oil and salt. While not a major source of vitamins or minerals, they do offer some potassium and iron from the potato base, contributing minimally to daily needs.
Health Benefits
- Potatoes in the chips provide some potassium, essential for maintaining proper heart and muscle function.
- Contains iron (roughly 4% of the daily value per serving), which supports oxygen transport in the blood.
- Relatively low in sugar (less than 1g), making them a more blood sugar-friendly snack compared to sweetened options.
