# Protein-Rich Hemp Chips Heaven's Lettuce Hemp Chips are Made from Real Hemp Leaves By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2020-07-20 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hemp-chips References: [prnewswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/heavens-lettuce-launches-new-organically-sourced-snack-food-loaded-with-nutritional-benefits--heavens-lettuce-hemp-chips-301095728.html) & [heavenslettuce](https://heavenslettuce.com/) Over the last few years, consumers have become familiar with products like [hemp oil and seeds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manitoba-harvest-hemp) but Heaven's Lettuce is introducing Hemp Chips for the first time to share the benefits of actual hemp leaves. Each bag of Hemp Chips boasts more than 15 grams of protein per bag, which is double the amount offered by regular kale chips. As co-founder Gary Avetisyan describes, "we intend Heaven's Lettuce Hemp Chips to be the product that vindicates the hemp plant. Hemp is such a powerful source of healthy nutrients and minerals—basically a superfood—and it has received a bad rap over the years." With the brand's Hemp Chips, consumers will be introduced to hemp as a source of all 10 essential amino acids, magnesium, terpenes and chlorophyll, which gives the plant its rich green color.
