Chips and popcorn are notoriously popular snacks but are often characterized by their high level of unwanted fat, so the KaPop! Snacks have been developed as an alternative for health-conscious consumers to pick up.
Developed by Dustin Finkel, the snacks are made with the ancient grain sorghum that has been popped in the same manner as popcorn to deliver a satisfying crunch that's packed with nutrients. This includes fiber, protein, potassium omega 3s and more, while also featuring a free-from profile that doesn't contains the top 12 allergens.
The KaPop! Snacks have a flavorful profile that comes in a number of familiar options including Salt & Vinegar, Rosemary Garlic, Dairy-Free Cheddar, Olive Oil & Sea Salt and Red & Green Sriracha varieties.
