Frequently Asked Questions
What is Hey! Chips?
We are a Singapore company that is dedicated to creating healthy and exciting fruit and vegetable chips for conscious eaters. We focus a lot of energy on sourcing the most natural ingredients traceably to do our part towards the environment, and strive to make our fruit and vegetable chips uniquely tasty without adding anything unnatural, not even sugar.
What do you add to the Chips to make them taste so good?
Nature tastes best, and we surely do not like a scary long list of ingredients. We time our process at the peak of our ingredients for the best quality and freshness, and we can only do so with our small-batch production. In our fruit series, we have just fruits + rice bran oil (1%). In our vegetable series, we have vegetables, salt (1%) and rice bran oil (1%).
How are the Chips made?
Vacuum Frying (VF) is the technology we use to make our chips. Unlike what it sounds like, it is not the same as conventional frying. The dehydration process only involves 60-80ºC heat so the natural tastes, colors and nutrients are retained while giving the chips the addictive crunch.
What is traceability?
Majority of food brands obtain their ingredients from unknown sources passing through several middlemen with no idea where and how the produce are obtained. Traceability gives a much stronger promise on food safety and is our way to ensure our produce are ethically and sustainably grown.

Why are the Chips so sweet? Are there any kinds of sweetener in the Chips?
Absolutely not! Few fans found our chips suspiciously sweet but we rely only on the natural sweetness of our fruits and vegetables. Our chips taste sweet due to the way we produce our chips. For example, most mass-produced banana chips would use unripe fruits to make it quicker and easier to slice. However, we use 80% ripe fruits each time so the fruits would already be sweet enough on their own.
