The Harvest Snacks Crunchy Loops Hot & Spicy are a new snack option being offered for avid fans of piquant snacks alike to enjoy this spring.
The snack starts off with ring-shaped pieces that are covered with a blend of spices to deliver a touch of heat in every bite alongside an impressively crispy texture. The snack also features four-grams of plant-based protein thanks to their lentil recipe and is baked to reduce the amount of fat in each serving. The crispy loops are characterized by their free-from recipe that has no artificial ingredients, preservatives, soy, nuts, palm oil, eggs, peanuts or wheat in the mix.
