Defatted Sunflower Seed Snacks

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Plantarian's Snacks Deliver High Protein with Its Special Flour

— December 4, 2018 — Lifestyle
Start-up snack label Planetarians deliver a selection of snack options that highlight one special ingredient -- upcycled defatted sunflower seeds. This ingredient goes through a process to be broken down and produced into a sustainable and nutritious protein flour. The defatted process essentially draws out the dry matter that remains after extracting all of the oils of the seeds.

The protein powder can then be used in baked goods and snack recipes including the label's sunflower chips. These chips are completely plant-based but boast a protein amount equal to animal products with more fiber and less fat than traditional potato chips. The nutritious sunflower chip flavors include 'Fiery Sriracha,' 'Sweetly Cinnamon,' and 'Sweet & Smoky BBQ.'
Trend Themes
1. Upcycled Ingredients - Leveraging waste products to create new and sustainable ingredients for food production.
2. Plant-based Snacks - Developing snacks that are made from plant sources, offering a more eco-friendly and healthy alternative to traditional snacks.
3. High-protein Flour - Creating alternative flours that are rich in protein, allowing for the development of nutritious and protein-packed food products.
Industry Implications
1. Food Manufacturing - Food manufacturers can explore the use of upcycled ingredients to create innovative and sustainable snack options.
2. Plant-based Food - The plant-based food industry can further expand its offerings by incorporating high-protein flours into their product line.
3. Health and Wellness - The health and wellness industry can benefit from the development of plant-based, high-protein snacks that cater to health-conscious consumers.
