Healthier Snacks
Continued from PAGE 1
AvoLov
has turned avocados into a
crunchy snack. Made from Hass avocados,
AvoLov avocado chips are entirely plant-
based, non-GMO, vegan, and keto and
paleo friendly. The chips, dehydrated to
maintain nutritional quality, have been re-
formulated this year. The chips come in a
1-ounce single-serve pouch for a suggested
retail price of $4.99.
For those who like a little honey in their
day, there's Honey Stinger, known for its
Organic Waffles and honey-based snacks.
The company refreshed its branding this
year, for the first time since 2002, with a
new logo and its newest product, Organic
Cracker N' Nut Butter Snack Bar line. The
versatile bars have organic nut butter and
True Source honey sandwiched between
two multigrain crackers, sprinkled with sea
salt and covered in chocolate. There are
three flavors: Peanut Butter & Milk Choco-
late, Almond Butter & Dark Chocolate, and
Cashew Butter & Milk Chocolate. The bars
come in boxes of 12 for a suggested retail
price of $26.40.
For cravings more savory than sweet,
there's Stryve Biltong, which is rebranding
at Sweets & Snacks Expo this year. This
South African staple has picked up in the
U.S. in just the last year, and that's because,
unlike beef jerky, it never sits marinating in
a sugary syrup. It contains 16 grams of pro-
tein and zero sugar per serving, and it's
friendly for keto, paleo and Whole30 diets.
Stryve offers biltong slices, sticks and trail
mix. The sliced biltong comes in 2.25-
ounce single servings and 10-ounce bulk
bags. The suggested retail price for the sin-
gle-serve
bag is $6.99.
Another familiar snack getting a makeover
is the beer nut, as recreated by Handfulls.
The brand's CrrrunchBites are made with
almonds instead of peanuts, wrapped in a
potato chip coating and seasoned four dif-
ferent ways BBQ, Chili Lime, Honey
Mustard and Ranch. They're made with
simple ingredients, certified gluten free,
kosher and they're certified by the Non-
GMO Project. All flavors, including
Ranch, are vegan. This healthier take on
the beer nut comes in 1.5-ounce snack
bags for a suggested retail price of $2.49
or 3.75-ounce bags for a suggested retail
price of $4.99.
Free2b Foods is introducing a mini version
of its Sun Cups. The snackable peanut but-
ter cup bites are made with only five ingre-
dients, free from artificial colors, flavors
and sweeteners, contain no preservatives
and no hydrogenated oils. They're also
vegan and free from the top 12 allergens.
Sun Cup Minis come in a resealable 4.2-
ounce gusseted pouch with a peg-hole dis-
play option at a suggested retail price of
$4.99.
Barnana's Bites are available in new flavors
this year, including Tropical and Dark
Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup. Barnana
makes its Banana Bites with upcycled ba-
nanas that would otherwise be thrown
away at the farm due to minor imperfec-
tions. All of the Bites are organic, non-
GMO and grain free, and come in
3.5-ounce packages for a suggested retail
price of $4.99.
