The [Insane Grain](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/insane-kane-strikin-hot-crisps) snacks are a premium snack option for consumers who are looking for a beneficial way to stave off hunger in a nutritious manner.

The snacks are made with sorghum, which is naturally rich in iron, potassium, B vitamins, folic acid and fiber. The ingredient is also reported to help promote better gut health and deliver greater antioxidant benefits than pomegranates and blueberries. The [puffed snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tasty-vibes) will come in 24 gram bags in flavors including Salt & Vinegar, Cheese and Salted Caramel, which are all [gluten-free, vegan](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/genius-gourmet-protein-puffs) and under 100 calories per bag.

Co-Founder Nigel Parrot spoke on the Insane Grain snacks saying, "I am thrilled to begin a new journey with Rushina Shah on the development of this new powerhouse of a snack brand - Insane Grain. We have carefully built the brand to appeal to as many people as possible so all can benefit from the benefits of sorghum.”
