When you think of crackers, what comes to mind? Your favorite brand? Your favorite topping? The saltines that your mother fed you with soup when you were sick as a child? Or perhaps that time your best friend crammed a dozen of them into their mouth and then tried to whistle?
Snack mixes and nuts have always been a popular snack because they have a "health halo," and are also usually available in on-the-go varieties. Over the past year, consumers have continued to search for better-for-you snack mixes, but at the same time, they're also looking for new and innovative flavors and varieties that are perhaps more exotic than previous incarnations, with touches of indulgence.
The idea of "better for you" encompasses much of what consumers desire today in many of their snacks and baked goods: clean label, non-GMO, natural and—at its core—solid nutrition to make those foods a healthy part of their daily diet.
Plant Snacks is proud to introduce Cassava Crunch, a new innovative better-for-you plant-based snack that is one of the first chip brands on the market to use the root vegetable cassava, also known as yuca, as the main ingredient.
