WORLD PEAS BRAND® AIMS TO UNJUNK SNACKING
NEW Peatos® by World Peas® Are a New Twist On American Classic
LOS ANGELES, CA. (October 10, 2017) – World Peas Brand®, owned by Los Angeles based Snack it Forward®, a company known for creating deliciously satisfying snacks, delves into the savory category by announcing Peatos®, a crunchy finger-licking original “unjunk” snack at the Produce Marketing Association Fresh Summit Convention and Expo, booth #2229. Peatos® are a new twist on an American classic snack, with 4G of Plant-based Protein and 3G of Fiber per Serving. Peatos® are available in three bold and addictive crunchy recipes: deliciously spicy, Fiery Hot; cheesy fan-favorite, Chili Cheese; and, South-Asian inspired Masala. Peatos® are currently available in the produce section of Los Angeles area partner Von’s Supermarkets.
“Our mission is to develop delicious, crunchy, and absolutely satisfying nutrient-dense snacks that everyone will love to eat,” said Snack It Forward CEO Nick Desai. “We’ve worked hard to un-junk everything but the taste from our line of Peatos® snacks by replacing empty calories like those from corn and potatoes with nutrient dense pulse ingredients.”
Substituting pulse ingredients for corn in Peatos® is what makes them nutrient-rich while maintaining incredible flavor. Having no artificial ingredients or flavors, addictively tasty Peatos® contain twice the Protein and three times the Fiber of the leading corn cheese curl snack (ahem Mr. Cheetah), and are also non-GMO, Gluten Free, and rich in minerals such as Iron, Folates, and Potassium. Pulses, an almost magical ingredient, are the edible seeds of various leguminous plants such as chickpeas, lentils, and peas and contain amazing plant-based nutrient rich characteristics.
The Produce Marketing Association Fresh Summit Convention and Expo will take place from October 19th-21st at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans, Louisiana. World Peas® invites attendees to stop by booth #2229 to experience its incredibly tasty bold flavored snacks.
