(40g) Each bite of their Dang Toasted Coconut Chips Lightly Salted unlocks an explosion of savory, buttery coconut oil followed by a caramelized sweet finish. They believe there’s beauty in simplicity and it doesn’t get simpler than paleo-friendly coconut kissed with a touch of sea salt. Dang Toasted Coconut Chips are: All Natural Vegan Non-GMO Gluten Free Dairy Free No Cholesterol Good Source of Fiber What are Dang Toasted Coconut Chips? Made from the nutrient-packed copra, or meat of the coconut, their toasted coconut chips are a delicious snack that provides loads of energy. The meat is sliced out of mature coconuts then gently toasted until golden brown with a dash of sugar and salt. The toasting process brings out the natural sweetness of the coconut meat and turns it from white to golden brown. Professional tasters detect notes of vanilla, yogurt and pear. What do you taste? Since copra is high in fiber, you don't have to eat a lot to feel full…a few handfuls and you'll be good to go. Dang thinks toasted coconut chips are the perfect snack because they satisfy your snack cravings quickly and give you a boost of energy. Many cultures around the world have been subsisting on coconuts for generations, and rightfully so. This miracle tree nut has so many uses, it might just be the most versatile crop plant in the world. The husks can be burned to produce electricity, the juice is delicious, light and packed with electrolytes, and the meat can be eaten raw for a snack, pressed into coconut milk, or toasted for a truly special experience. While great on their own, Dang Toasted Coconut Chips can be used to enhance other foods.

Copra (coconut meat) is rich in a particular medium-chain triglyceride (MCT): Lauric Acid. Heart Healthy: Lauric acid has been found to increase total cholesterol the most of all fatty acids. But most of the increase is attributable to an increase in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) "good" cholesterol. As a result, lauric acid has "a more favorable effect on total:HDL cholesterol than any other fatty acid, either saturated or unsaturated"; a lower total/HDL cholesterol ratio suggests a decrease in cardiovascular risk1 What are the other benefits? Energy Boost: Your body sees the MCTs in coconut and easily burns them as energy rather than store them as fat. Many bodybuilders take coconut oil supplements before exercising to get a natural energy boost. Immunity: Studies have shown that coconut oil can help our bodies resist illness from disease-causing pathogens and fungi. Sugar Regulation and Digestion: Coconut oil can also positively affect our hormones for thyroid and blood-sugar control. People who take coconut oil also tend to have improvements in how they handle blood sugar since coconut can help improve insulin use within the body. Coconut oil can boost thyroid function helping to increase metabolism, energy and endurance. It increases digestion and helps to absorb fat-soluble vitamins. Unwanted Belly Fat: One study found that women who consumed 30 milliliters (about 2 tablespoons) of coconut oil daily for 12 weeks gained less weight than those taking other another oil, and had lower amounts of abdominal fat. The Dang Story Dang is named after Founder, Vincent Kitirattragarn's mother, who grew up eating food from some of the best chefs in the world: Bangkok’s street vendors. One day, she passed on her recipe for Thai Lettuce Wraps just like she used to have as a college student. Vincent found himself involuntarily snacking on one of the ingredients - Toasted Coconut. It had a strong, sweet aroma and a very satisfying crunch. He immediately called his family, who have been importing goods to the US for more than 30 years, and with that, their company was born. Dang’s motto is “Dang, that's good!" They
