Can't stop eating them!
These are an awesome snack! They have it all: sweet, salty, smoky, a little bit of spice, plus they are healthier than other chips and stuff.

Mango Chile Lime Crisps
These crips were a bit to 'beany' tasting for me. They have a very strong black bean flavor which I didn't love. The other flavors were good, however. My husband enjoyed them more than me. He liked the intense bean flavor.

Great snack alternative
I was skeptical of these but there are great flavor options so I decided to give it a try. The Mango Chile Lime is good but the lime is a bit over-bearing for being the 3rd flavor listed. Overall, they are very good crunchy snacks.

Interesting twist on a snack product
I expected to not like this product because it seemed like an odd flavor and I had never tried this type of product. I'm still not a huge fan but the product was very light in texture, crispy and crunchy, and although I did not enjoy the first taste I kept on eating and they grew on me. It is not messy to eat and it would make a good snack for company or to have on hand to munch on. It was a bit too spicy for me but the lime really showed its presence. I'm going to eat the original flavor to get a better feel for whether this product is way too strong. It could just be me. I did not like the look of the bean full of pepper but it did taste OK after several beans were eaten.

Had a friend try these too and she like them
I don't normally eat these snacks and wasn't too fond of them, but my friend eats them and she really like it.

Too Sweet Yet Not Savory Enough
With the advertisement of being less fat than potato chips, I thought that the Harvest Snaps Black Bean Mango Chile Lime would be more like a potato chip than a sweet. Instead the Harvest Snaps Black Bean Mango Chile Lime was a strange amalgamation of the two, not quite savory or crunchy to be a chip but too sweet. Yet at the same time, it was not sweet enough to be a dessert. If I was mindlessly munching, I guess I could eat the Harvest Snaps Black Bean Mango Chile Lime, but otherwise I rather not. The taste is a bit too strange for me and I don't like the texture very much. However, the price was so reasonable and I liked that it was healthier than most other snack foods.

Interesting Flavor Combination
Harvest Snaps Black Bean Mango Chile Lime is an unusual flavor combination that I am not sure would appeal to most people. It didn't really appeal to me and I couldn't finish the bag. I am someone who loves savory snacks so this was a bit surprising, but the Harvest Snaps Black Bean Mango Chile Lime left a strange residual taste in my mouth. Plus the initial combination of mango + chile + lime is not really tasty. I am not a fan. Plus the texture is strange because I want something a bit more crispy and crunchy.

Delicious

Light, crispy, tasty snack
I wasn't expecting to like these. Black bean, chili lime... Just didn't sound good to me. I really like them though. They are crisp, and full of flavor. Bonus... Good source of protein and fiber!

Air popped bean snack great, taste blah
I love the fact that this is air popped black beans, which means it is high in fiber and protein. It is also low in calories! But the taste turned me off completely! Mango lime Chile is actually brown sugar, molasses, Chile pepper. Totally turned me off. I felt like I was eating crunchy molasses with an aftertaste of Chile powder. I'm hoping other flavors turn out better because this has the potential to be a game changer in snack foods!

Snaps, not my style
The texture was good. I thought the flavors were off. Not really tasting like mango chili lime. I would pass on these.

Spicy and tasty
I love the baked peas and wanted to try the Black Bean Mango Chili Lime. I have to say this will probably become a favorite snack for me. They were just spicy enough and very crunchy to satisfy my craving. I love these!

Mango Chile Lime is great! Made from black beans
These Harvest Snaps have a great flavor. Love the Mango Chile Lime flavor. Great to buy better for you snacks with fiber and protein and made out of black beans. Crispy snacks.

I Cannot Believe It's Baked!
The Harvest Snaps Black Bean Mango Chile Lime are a boldly flavored, zesty snack. They're surprisingly healthy alternatives to chips since they're baked and make from a green vegetable. The mango chile lime flavor at first was a little strange, but then after a moment, it was an explosion of bold flavor and quite addicting! I munched on them until I demolished the whole bag. So much for saving room for dinner!

Taste very good
I think Harvest Snaps are a great ! I won't even miss chips. I even surprised myself. I really enjoy eating them. To top it off they are a good source of fiber and protein too. I can't wait to try the othe flavors.

Unique Healthy Snack
Harvest Snaps Black Bean Mango Chile Lime is a unique snack that seems healthier than other options available. I found that the taste is appealing in small doses - too many at a time loses its appeal for me. I like that it uses black beans and adds flavoring to enhance the taste.
Verified member
Not so sure about the lime flavor.
I liked the subtle sweetness of the mango and the spice of the chili. The flavor of the lime, however, tasted a bit artificial or medicinal, like the smell of a bathroom disinfectant. I love the crunch of the product and everything else was great. The lime just brought the product way down and left an unpleasant aftertaste.

messy strong flavour
I actually really like harvet snaps; I normally get the sea salt flavour. I did not like this flavour very much because of a few things. The flavour itself was good, very tasty and nice balance between sweet and sour. However the powder of flavour was too much, it was messy and got everywhere. It also felt kind of greasy when i was eating it. They were not light and flakey like the regular flavours, they were rich and heavy.

Awesome flavor!
Love the flavor of this snack! Plus a bonus is they are completely vegan. Great taste and excellent value.

This product fell short
I tried the mango chili lime black bean Harvest Snaps and while I have tried other flavors and liked them. This flavor is not for me. It left an aftertaste in my mouth which wasn't pleasant. I prefer the other flavors and will purchase them in the future but will pass on this flavor.
Verified member
Wow! Great flavor
I have tried the Harvest Snaps pea type of these and I really liked them. I had not seen these before now. Wow, what a great snack! This is so good I could not stop eating them. You can really taste all the flavors of the black beans, mango, chili and lime. I love that it is less fat than most snacks. It also has fiber and protein. I would definitely buy this product as an alternative to other snacks.

Wowza! Unique taste and flavor

Healthy snack that tastes pretty good
I found that Harvest Snaps Black Bean Mango Chile lime is a healthier snack than chips and it tastes pretty good. The lime flavor was a little too much for my liking but overall this product was tasty.

Tasty yet lots of residue
The packaging does not due the mango chile lime crisps justice. It is actually way better tasting then it looks. Great flavor with a little kick to it. My kids really loved the flavor as well, which is a total bonus! :) Only issue is leaves more than I'd like of residue of spices and crispyness coming off the bean, lots of flakes. But I would recommend for sure. :)

Healthy snack with a tinge of sweet
These are an excellent alternative snack to your typical junk food. Slightly sweet and with a touch of spice.
Verified member
Great tasty and healthy snack
These are very delicious and healthy snack. After first bite, I knew I was in love with this. I love the different flavors from the spices. I was expecting spicier taste but there are perfect amount of mango, chile, and lime. I thought the balance between sweetness and spices was great. The crispness is perfect too. It has less fat but more fiber and protein than regular potato chips per serving. The bag is kind of small for the price but it is definitely worth it.

Totally Craveable Snack!
My wife and I could not stop eating Harvest Snaps Black Bean Mango Chili Lime after we opened the bag! They are delicious and like no other snack. I will totally be craving these from now on and am excited to try the other varieties. Only wish the bag was resealable, although we finished them in one sitting. While eating them, you taste all the flavors: mango, chili, lime at different times. They are so good; highly recommend!!

product was on display in the middle of the store
The product has a unique flavor that grows on you as you eat them. A bit too salty but great otherwise
Verified member
Really surprised that those were beans!
Was not expecting a black bean in this form. It was tasty and so much better for me than chips because beans naturally have more protein and fiber than potatoes. This product is definitely a great snack to satisfy my craving for something crunchy and salty.

Great snack at a good price
I found these very tasty. The crunch satisfied my snack craving. I shared them at work. My co workers loved them

Delicious!
The flavor here is fantastic! While still not a "healthy" product, definitely a better choice for snacking. Absolutely delicious.

Healthy & convenient, but not good flavor for me
I liked the texture and convenience of this snack, but the flavor was awful to me. Maybe another flavor would work for me, but this one was not a good match for me.

A new way to eat black beans!

Yummy snack
I had tried other products from Harvest Snaps before and this was the first time I had Harvest Snaps Black Bean Mango Chile Lime. Kinda different, but good in its unique way.

Disappointed in lack of HEAT
I was really excited to try these black bean crisps because my wife and daughter have tried and love the black pepper pea crisps variety. Something different for me with some added chile heat gave me another snack option that I didn't have to share. Unfortunately for me, they were a bummer! The flavor is alright and I could finish the bag, but I expected more of an "umph" with spice and chile. They literally tasted like sweet mango with a weird veggie lime aftertaste. Reading the ingredients, I am a little disappointed that there are tons of sweet things added (sugar, brown sugar, molasses solids, maltodextrin) and the lack of heat and spicier ingredients. I found the black pepper flavor tastier than these and would probably never try this variety again.

Yummy to have with a sand which!
I used these with my lunch sand which and they are very good. I am not big on the chili lime combo but I think I will try other flavors to see how they are. The crunch is just right and they are a very nice change from chips!

Different flavors
This flavor was a bit odd to me - it's much for me. I love these snacks. But this flavor is just not for me.

Strong bean taste
The black bean flavor was very strong. It also left a strong after taste. I couldn't really tatse the chile lime which was disappointing.
Verified member
Wow, flavors abound
These Harvest Snaps Black Bean Mango Chile Lime are the bomb. I wasn't expecting all the flavors to jump forth but boy was I wrong. A great snack and lots of fiber too. What a great snack but have some water ready. Not too hot but just the right amount of all the flavors. Love them.
Verified member
Good thing we bought two....
It's key to note that you really need to commit to the lime. when added to food it's a very blunt citrus and tends to overpower. Calbee found a great balance where the lime didn't completely overthrow all other flavors in the item (mango, chile or the black bean). Black bean anything has been on the rise in our home, chips, pasta, salsas and now our pea crisps.

fun food to eat
I was pleasantly surprised by how crispy & delicious this snack food was. Harvest Snaps are a great way to satisfy a craving without feeling guilty.

Not for me
While harvest snaps are a great value for a light, healthy snack, this particular flavor is not for me. I was overwhelmed by the flavors and they did not mesh well together.

A delicious snack option
A delicious tasting snack. Actually tasted much better than I expected. 3 adults sampled these, and they were a hit with all 3. Taste is multi-layered. Texture is crisp, yet not "grainy". Love that they have more fiber.

I couldn't stop eating them!
I have a friend who is addicted to Harvest Snaps, so when I saw them on the list I had to try them. I never bought them before because they seemed rather expensive for the size of the bag. Now that I have tried them I will probably have to get them again. They are delicious and addictive. The flavor at first reminded of BBQ potato chips and I was disappointed. After my first taste however, I could discern the lime, mango and chile flavors. Once I had a few I couldn't stop and kept coming back to the bag for more. I finished the entire bag in an hour. I also appreciated the ingredients list. This is a snack I feel good about eating.

Great chips alternative
If you like beans and need a break from regular chips, look no further than harvest snaps.

Savory with a little fruity taste
I've tried other flavors of Harvest Snaps and really enjoyed them. I like chili-lime flavor on other products so tasting mango-chili-lime on a salty/savory snack was interesting. Glad I tried these! I like them.
Verified member
Very Flavorful and unique taste.
I was not sure what to expect with this flavor. I do not like spicy foods. I tried these and wow can you taste the mango. It does have a slight little bite of the chili flavor but nothing that will burn you tongue. I like the fluffiness of the bean. I do wish that it did have a resealable top tough.

Delicious!
These crisps are so addictive! They are perfectly crunchy and have the right amount of spice to them.

Harvest Snaps Black Bean Mango Chili Lime flavor!
I am not one for the chips category but these are light and very flavorful. You can taste each flavor without any of them overpowering the others. They are crisp and light. Reminds me of the Lay's commercial where you can't have just one.

Not our forte
The Harvest snacks were not really enjoyed by our family. There were too many competing flavors that really did not compliment each other. The sweet mango flavor really came through which I didn't care for in a Crunchy snack. I would not purchase this snack again.

Great flavor
I was really impressed with this Harvest snaps mango chile lime snack and the fact that I had a really nice crispy texture. I found that it was a little sweet but it definitely satisfied my craving for something crunchy. I also like the fact that it's gluten free with a very unique flavor. It's a great snack that help satisfy craving for something crunchy but it's a healthier option
