SuperEats recently launched a line of protein-rich snack puffs that are allergen-free, non-GMO, gluten-free and entirely made with plant-based ingredients.
The vegan snack puffs are so incredibly packed with protein because they use sustainably sourced sacha inchi—the superfood also known as the Peruvian mountain peanut—which is a much more abundant source of omegas and protein than the domestic peanut.
The protein-rich puffs are offered in flavors like Truffle and Rosemary, Jalapeño Cheddar, Chipotle BBQ, as well as White Cheddar. These snacks set themselves apart as a natural, functional, better-for-you alternative that provides eight grams of protein per serving. SuperEats also notes that its new snacks are "400% higher protein, 50% lower carbs, 200% higher fiber and 30% lower fat" as compared to the leader in the puffs category.
