Called Slim Chips, the snacks are made of edible paper with organic colours and flavours in peppermint, blueberry and sweet potato.

Here's a tiny bit of text from Juliusson:


Slim Chips are good and they contain no calories. Instead of getting fat you can now eat paper with different flavors. It's like eating tasty air. The Slim Chips are made out of edible paper and pure organic tastes.

    are they good?

  2. Hilmar Þór says:

    I like it. There is probably a big market for it in the USA

    Hopefully it is not made of recycled paper :)

    Or is it?

  3. Therese Senac says:

    Yay!.. this has savoury versions of sugar paper!

  4. Pony the Trap says:

    At the very least they could have put them in a paper bag. Or an envelope so you can tear chips off at will. That said, anyone eating these (hipster or otherwise) deserves a hammer to the shins.

  5. Stella Corona says:

    Doesn’t paper have calories? It’s all fiber!

  6. sean says:

    Kudos Pony

  7. Hilmar Þór says:

    Is it provided in A4 sheets?

    Then we would dot need burn letters or put them into the shredders. You could eat the paperwork you do not like others to see!

    Honestly I have to say that this is an excellent idea from Hafsteinn Julíusson:

    economic ruin and volcanic ash… finally something good to come out of iceland…

    Are you kidding? Instead of pushing for people to live more balanced healthy lifestyles, we are promoting the continuance of excessive eating with empty food. We complained for years about non-nutricious food causing our health demise, and here we have an actual, completely nutrition-less “food” we are praising.

    The chips for your anorexia have arrived!

    Where the hell did they come up with these flavors though… peppermint… blueberry… and sweet potato. I wonder if the snozzberry really tastes like snozzberry..
