When you hear of flavors like Salted Caramel, Honey Peanut and Chocolate Pecan, it's natural to associate these with a treat that's rich and indulgent rather than an organic snack. But Pure Organic's Crispy Clusters are made with a base of oats, nuts and ancient grains that are satisfying in terms of both taste and nutrition.
The unique form of the snacks takes inspiration from loose granola, but the clustered shape makes them easier to eat on the go. To push the Crispy Clusters as a snack item versus a cereal, Pure Organics notes that they would be merchandised with other snacks rather than the breakfast food aisle.
The nutty non-GMO, gluten-free, soy-free and kosher oat clusters are ideal for those who are careful to follow alternative diets and some allergy restrictions.
