What You Should Know

You'd spot this sharing-size bag in the snack aisle or brought out at casual gatherings, road trips, or packed in lunchboxes for an easy crunchy bite. It gives a 'lighter/healthy' vibe because it's made from peas and labeled lightly salted, but the uniform crunch and shelf-stable packaging reflect industrial processing. The ingredient list (concentrated peas and rice, added vegetable oils, salt and small functional additives) signals a formulated, ready-to-eat snack typical of ultra-processed foods.
