Crispy Green, a brand specializing in healthy snacks made with simple ingredients, has released a new 'Chilli Lime' flavor variation of Piña Picante, the company's signature freeze-dried pineapple snacks.
Just like with its other flavors, Piña Picante 'Chilli Lime' is made from imported Costa Rican pineapples that have been infused with a specialty blend of species before being air-dried. For this flavor, the pineapples are infused with a blend of zesty lime, cayenne peppers, and sea salt.
"Pineapple is one of my favorite fruits. Growing up in southern China, I was taught to dip pineapple in salt water before eating it, which would help to reduce the stinging sensation it has on the tongue, also makes the pineapple feel sweeter. The sweet and sour taste of pineapple blends very well with savory flavors," said Angels Liu, the Founder and CEO of Crispy Green.
