Austin-based company FitJoy Foods is debuting its new Grain-Free Peanut Butter-Filled Nuggets at this year's Natural Products Expo West at booth #8118. The better-for-you snack will roll out on shelves September 2020 with a $5.99 suggested retail price and is not only grain-free but also free of gluten, maltitol, GMOs, and artificial flavors and sweeteners.
The FitJoy Grain-Free Peanut Butter-Filled Nuggets are made from real ingredients including unrefined organic cassava flour, a rich source of vitamin C and potassium. Because the flour is unrefined, the floor still boasts its germ and bran, components of the grain that offer healthy fats and fiber. The new free-from snack is ideal for wellness-minded consumers as well as those living with celiac disease.
