To play up the name of its product, Govinda's 'BackPacker' raw snacks are packaged in shapely containers that are sculpted to look like real bags. The front of the [backpack-inspired packaging design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/redesigned-retail-packaging) includes illustrations of pockets, which contain depictions of the ingredients used in the product, as well as a shot of the final [raw and vegan snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gosh-veg-bites) themselves. One of the other charming details is a buckle and a top flap, creating a closure system that imitates the way fabric bags are opened.

As for the products themselves, the BackPacker snacks from Govinda come in a variety of healthful flavors, including cacao, lemon, ginger and carrot, which are powered by a few superfood ingredients like lucuma and chia seeds.
