Sensible Portions Garden Veggie Snacks has introduced two new snack products that target kid-focused snacking occasions to surprise and delight with decidedly tangy taste experiences.
The new products include the Garden Veggie Puffs Dill Pickle Ranch alongside the Garden Veggie Straws Salt & Vinegar, which are both made with avocado oil. The Dill Pickle Ranch snack marries two tangy taste profiles, while the Salt & Vinegar balances sourness and salt to achieve the right balance for a range of snacking occasions.
The latest Sensible Portions Garden Veggie Snacks are also made without artificial flavors, preservatives or FD&C dyes. Each snack has a vegetable-based ingredient list to work well for parents seeking out a better-for-you option to give little ones when snacking at home or out of the house.
