Coated in a seasoning that'll make you drool, these BBQ chips are a fan favorite. You'd never know it, but they're made with "ugly" potatoes that would otherwise be thrown away.
Sustainable goodness
Uglies lowers their carbon footprint by using locally-sourced "ugly" potatoes that would otherwise be thrown in landfills. They also run a zero-waste facility, diverting over 200 tons of waste from the landfill to be combusted for energy recovery.
How it does good
Finding a new use for unwanted potatoes
Uglies is a family-run company in Berks County, Pennsylvania. They make their chips from locally-grown potatoes that can't be sold to grocers because of how they look. By doing this, Uglies keeps tons of waste out of our landfills. Their manufacturing facility is also zero-waste and landfill-free. Every year, they send over 200 tons of waste to a local incinerator where it is converted into energy. Another way they keep their carbon footprint low is by manufacturing everything on-site at their plant. This way, they cut down on their transit time and in turn, their use of fossil fuels.
