What You Should Know

You'd spot these in the snack or gluten-free aisle or brought out at a movie night or casual get-together — a crunchy, grain-free chip option that feels like a healthier swap. The product projects a wholesome, slightly indulgent vibe (cassava, chia, avocado oil) but still delivers the crisp, shelf-stable texture of a packaged chip. The ingredient list — refined cassava starch, citric acid and lime oil — and the ready-to-eat crunch indicate industrial processing typical of ultra-processed snacks.
