Hippie Snacks' Avocado Crisps are plant-based snacks that offer five grams of protein per serving and promise "all the creamy avocado flavor you crave, with the crunch you deserve." The avocado snacks are offered in flavors like Sea Salt and Guacamole, each of which is prepared with baked avocado as the first ingredient. The avocado-based snacks are enhanced with just a few other simple ingredients like seeds, tapioca starch, coconut milk and brown rice flour, plus a few others and seasonings to create the essence of each unique flavor.
As a snack, avocado is typically enjoyed in some sort of creamy form but a variety of snack food brands are introducing puffs, chips and crisps that are crunchy and offer a different texture experience.
