AL Chipino is providing a healthier and tasty new angle to snacking and its tag line ‘Try A New Angle!’ suggests the same.

AL Chipino comes in 6 bold flavors and available in 2 sizes (5.5oz and 1.75 oz):

Bollywood Sweet & Sour A perfect combo of sweet and sour, comes this bag of pure Indian flavor with its twists and turns.

BBQ Tikka Masala Tastes like the flavors of smoky cottage cheese in a tangy tomato marinade.

Salsa Picante Tastes like sweet Spanish tomatoes and hot peppers, with a splash of vinegar. If a bandito walked into a store, this is the flavor he’d steal.

NY Deli Cheese Tastes like a blend of fresh herbs and light spices smothered in melted cheese. Think Enrique with a New York accent.

Sea Salt & Pepper A dash of finely ground sea-salt, a punch of fresh black pepper and your helpless taste buds caught between the two.

Peri Peri From the jungles of Africa, Peri Peri arrived to the land of spices. India couldn’t tame it but added its spice, fire and heat.
