It’s NFL playoff season and plenty of football to watch in the countdown to the Superbowl. Game time is snack time. No need to sabotage your diet with all the healthy chips and dips available at most grocery and convenience stores.
Robin Barrie Kaiden MS, RD, CDN, CSSD, one of the nation’s leading experts in personal wellness and nutrition, recommends crunchy snacks like organic popcorn, chips, and nuts cooked in olive or avocado oil. Avoid refined vegetable oils like corn oil, sunflower oil, and safflower oil.
Says Kaiden, “I love Kettle Brand Chips made with avocado oil. For tortilla-style chips, my favorite are Siete. They are grain free made only with cassava flour, avocado oil, coconut flour, chia seeds and salt.”

When it comes to dips, the same applies with oils and stay away from added sugars. Brands like Primal Kitchen and Cava have a wide selection of offerings. The best store bought options for guacamole and salsas will be in the refrigerated section. Look for ones made with just fresh vegetables and spices, and adds Kaiden, “make sure you are familiar with all the ingredients.”
It’s easy to enjoy all the traditional football fare with these tips, chips, and dips to keep everyone healthy and happy through Superbowl Sunday!
