There are tons of novelty products like coffee, soda and toothpaste that are designed to emulate the flavor of bacon—now, Rhythm Superfoods has introduced a roasted kale snack that mimics the taste of the meat.
While there is inspiration taken from bacon, this snack is completely suitable for vegans, since it only uses spices like paprika, garlic powder and natural smoke flavors to recreate the taste profile of bacon. With organic lacinato kale as a base, this is a superfood snack that's rich in vitamins A, C and K.
Other roasted kale chip flavors from Rhythm Superfoods include exotic ones like Chili Lime, as well as ones that take cues from classic Sea Salt & Vinegar potato chip seasoning.
