Goya Chickpea Puffs are being launched by the Hispanic-owned food brand as a crunchy snack product perfect for consumers to enjoy in place of conventional alternatives.
The snack product features puff-style pieces crafted out of chickpeas covered in Latin cuisine-inspired flavorings to give each bite a highly seasoned profile. The snack comes in Elote, Chili Limón and Churro flavors, which are each vegan-friendly, nut-free, gluten-free and Kosher.
The Goya Chickpea Puffs are crafted with a blend of chickpea flour, rice flour, pea protein, sunflower oil and cassava starch before being covered in spices and natural extracts. The snacks are making their way to retailers in the US in July where shoppers can pick them up in one-ounce and four-ounce bags priced at $1.59 and $3.69, respectively.
