By: Snack Out Loud Foods “We make snacks that not only tantalize your taste buds, but are also good for your body and the planet, too,” said Liz Myslik, chief bean at Snack Out Loud. “We comb the Earth to find Mother Nature’s best ingredients, then use 100 percent wind power and beans grown by U.S. family farmers to create snacks that are full of good and free from the stuff snackers try to avoid – gluten, GMOs, corn, and soy.” POWER PUFFS Snacks New for Expo West, Snack Out Loud Foods is taking snacking to the next level with the announcement of its line of POWER PUFFS snacks. POWER PUFFS snacks will have a special place in the puffs category as they deliver complete protein and fiber based on their navy beans, brown rice and coconut oil ingredients, rather than corn and corn oil. These mighty wonders are naturally free from peanuts, soy, GMOs and gluten, making them the perfect fit for those who want options that are delicious, nutritious, and allergy-friendly. Whether it’s vanquishing a looming lunch box, satisfying an afternoon craving, or livening up a picnic, these little puffs have the power to conquer even the fiercest snack attack. POWER PUFFS snacks come in a shareable 3.1oz bags (MSRP: $3.49) in three yummy flavors any superhero will devour, including White Cheddar, Sweet & Tangy BBQ, and Sea Salt & Vinegar. Crunchy Bean Snacks Crunchy Bean Snacks are a first-of-its- Snack Size (MSRP: $1.99) Sea Salt Tomato Basil Ranch Jalapeño Cheddar Smoky Chipotle BBQ Family Size (MSRP: $4.99) Sea Salt Tomato Basil Jalapeño Cheddar Smoky Chipotle BBQ Why Snack On Beans? According to The Hartman Group study, “Increased Interest in Protein,” consumers are increasingly seeking protein from legumes, vegetables and nuts. However, few Americans are getting their recommended consumption of legumes per week.** The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends consuming 3 cups of legumes a week, but average intake is less than 1 cup per week, and less than one-third of Americans report eating beans on any given day. Beans are a highly nutritious superfood, rich in plant-based protein, fiber, iron, magnesium, calcium, antioxidants and omegas, and Snack Out Loud is proud to provide exciting new ways for families to incorporate beans into their daily diets. “We believe harnessing the bountiful benefits of beans is the perfect way to get more nutrition from snacks,” said Myslik. “We’re proud to have created new ways to make bean-based snacks that impart the same textures and flavor profiles of chips and nuts, but with added nutrition and environmental benefits, so that families will get everything they want in a snack,” said Myslik. The Give Back Snack In addition to providing fun snacks packed full of nutritional value, Snack Out Loud products are the give back snacks because of the various ways beans, and the Snack Out Loud team, give back to planet and people. While many natural snack food companies emphasize their impact on the environment, few can say that their main ingredient nourishes the soil and helps other foods grow. Beans do just that. The nitrogen they release into the soil provides fertile ground for other crops to thrive. To reduce carbon footprint and energy use, Snack Out Loud uses beans grown by family farmers who use sustainable practices and are close to where the beans are roasted. Snack Out Loud also uses 100 percent wind power to produce its snacks. As a team, Snack Out Loud gives back to its community in many other ways, including by donating food, money and time to help alleviate food insecurity.
