Crispy Tempeh Chips

Mamame Whole Foods Makes Tempeh Chips with Fermented Black-Eyed Beans

— June 26, 2023 — Lifestyle
Mamame Whole Foods makes Tempeh Chips with fermented black-eyed beans, lentils and chia seeds and cooks them in coconut oil to create a completely gluten-free and plant-based snack. Although tempeh is usually made from tapioca flour and fermented soybeans, the brand opted for non-GMO black-eyed beans instead for environmental and dietary reasons. These nutritious snacks are offered in varieties like Hot Chilli, Rosemary and Cheese so that there's a flavor for every snacker's taste preference.

Whether they are buying chips made with vegetables or ancient grains, consumers are looking for alternatives to potato chips to support their healthy snacking habits. These kinds of snacks are loaded with nutritional benefits from nutritious ingredients that help to support their dietary goals, all the while offering a satisfying crunch.
Trend Themes
1. Alternative Snacks - Creating snacks made from non-traditional ingredients like fermented black-eyed beans and lentils presents an opportunity to cater to health-conscious consumers who are seeking alternatives to traditional potato chips.
2. Gluten-free Options - Developing gluten-free snacks like crispy tempeh chips appeals to consumers with dietary restrictions or those looking for healthier snack choices without sacrificing taste or texture.
3. Plant-based Snacking - Capitalizing on the growing trend of plant-based eating, offering snacks made from ingredients like fermented black-eyed beans and chia seeds allows businesses to tap into the vegan and vegetarian market.
Industry Implications
1. Snack Food Industry - Exploring innovative snack options using non-traditional ingredients can disrupt the snack food industry by providing healthier and more diverse options for consumers.
2. Health Food Industry - Incorporating gluten-free and plant-based snacks like crispy tempeh chips into the health food industry can meet the growing demand for nutritious snacks and cater to consumers with dietary restrictions.
3. Vegan/vegetarian Food Industry - By offering plant-based snacks made from ingredients such as fermented black-eyed beans and chia seeds, businesses can disrupt the vegan/vegetarian food industry by providing tasty alternatives to traditional snacks.
