Munching on a snack that tastes like junk food doesn't always mean it's the best option in terms of nutrition, but Funley's healthy crackers boast superfood ingredients to balance out a desire for indulgence.
Funley's downplays the superfood ingredients of its crackers, by branding its flavors as Cheddar, Pizza, Ranch Cornbread N' Stuff. Each of these flavors masks a hidden vegetable ingredient, such as carrots, broccoli, spinach or sweet potato. However, there's no way around hiding the fact that these healthy crackers are packed with vitamins, calcium and iron.
Parents will appreciate that the crackers are made without trans fats, high fructose corn syrup, preservatives and artificial ingredients. The all-natural snacks are SB-12 School Compliant, which means they meet school nutrition standards, although kids and adults alike will be able to enjoy these crispy snacks.
