Fourth of July is fast approaching, and that means fireworks, sparklers--and cookouts! And what's a backyard barbecue without a few tasty sides? In honor of our nation's birthday and in the spirit of eating more healthful foods, the folks at popchips reached out to us. We tried their popped (not baked or fried, but popped!) chips last year and liked them. They wanted to make your backyard BBQ even more festive with a fun giveaway. They're going to give 2 lucky readers a variety of the single-serving bags of these chips. This giveaway is worth more than $50--you'll get 48 bags to share at your party. (No need to worry about raiding the chip bowl too many times if you stick with just one bag per person!) They're portion-controlled, 100 calories a pack and available in plenty of flavors. More about popchips: "the never fried (unhealthy), never baked (undelicious), popped potato chips are available to satisfy your cravings in a variety of delicious taste-bud popping flavors, including barbeque, salt & pepper, sea salt & vinegar and the newest ‘popstars,’ sour cream & onion and cheddar. Because these chips are popped, you actually get up to 30 percent more chips per serving and they have less than half the fat of fried chips, making them the ideal better-for-you snack this 4th of July. And with only 100 calories and 3 g of fat, popchips single serve offers a craving crushing 15+ chips per serving!" The chips, which are available nationwide, are $1.29 for Single Serve bag and $2.99 for 3 ounce bag. (Find a store here.) Because no chips are complete without dip, check out these 9 Slimmed-Down Dips. While you're at it, read about the Best and Worst Cookout Foods!
