Natural Products Expo East 2015

FIRST ORGANIC AND NON-GMO BAKED PEA SNACK, PEAS PLEASE, NOW READILY AVAILABLE

BROOKLYN, NY—September 16, 2015—Snackers looking for a tasty and nutritious snack can now find Peas Please at a store near them. Peas Please, the first organic and non-GMO baked pea snack, made by Peeled Snacks is available in 2,000 stores nationwide.

Peas Please is a crunchy pea snack made from natural, wholesome ingredients: organic whole peas and whole grain brown rice. With one whole vegetable per serving, Peas Please offers a tasty, nutritious choice over other savory snacks. Each serving of Peas Please is high in protein (5 grams), fiber (4 grams) and iron (15% of daily iron for adults).

Peas Please is a healthy alternative that snackers can feel good about eating,” says Noha Waibsnaider, Peeled Snacks Founder and CEO. “Most savory snacks—even the so-called ‘veggie’ snacks’—are filled with non-organic ingredients, potatoes or unnatural fillers. Peas Please is a genuinely good tasting snack that is as close to nature as possible—and it’s now available at many snackers’ local grocery stores.”

Peas Please is on shelves in over 200 Whole Foods Market stores in the Midwest, Mid-Atlantic, Northeast, Florida and SoPac regions. The savory snack is also available at Sprouts Farmers Market, Giant Food, Stop & Shop stores and over 1,000 additional independent, natural food stores. Peeled Snacks plans to make Peas Please even more widely available; by the end of 2015 it will be in an additional 1,000 stores.

Peas Please is USDA certified organic, non-GMO project verified, gluten-free and Kosher. Peas Please is currently available in three 3.3oz bag varieties: Sea Salt, Garden Herb and Southwest Spice (MSRP: $2.99).
