Brass Roots makes protein puff snacks that are low in sugar and delight the senses with unique flavors like White Cheddar, Truffle Rosemary, Sweet Heat and vegan-friendly Jalapeno Cheddar. These low-sugar, protein-packed snacks are made with sacha inchi, also known as the Inca peanut, which is packed with omega-3.
While many puff snacks are satisfying for their texture alone, these crunchy snacks are made with purposeful ingredients that cater to a wide range of dietary choices. The plant-based, grain-free puffs are said to have about as much protein per serving as jerky and are loaded with healthy fats from avocado oil.
Some of the protein puff flavors offer a creative reinterpretation of comforting snacks—while the Jalapeno Cheddar variety reminds of cheesy nachos, the Truffle Rosemary puffs rethink truffle fries.
