This product isn’t completely new, but it wasn’t until they transitioned to a jazzy new name that we found them. Formerly known as Super Eats, Brass Roots Crunch Puffs are top allergen-free, grain-free, vegan snacks that come in dairy-free cheesy and truffle flavors. They’re kind of like a cheese puff, but score much higher in nutrition and unique taste.
Brass Roots Crunch Puffs Hit a High Note for Dairy-Free Snacks
These snack puffs are made with a harmonious base of lentil flour and pea protein, for a heftier snack. They also add a little sacha inchi protein for good measure. Sacha inchi seeds are sometimes called Incan peanuts or mountain peanuts, but they aren’t related to the Jif-variety of peanuts. They’re peanut-free and nut-free!
