Sapientia founder and President Dr. Eugenio Bortone (who invented Twisted Cheetos) created a new kind of plant-based snack in the form of protein twists. Under the COOP Pure Brand, these plant-powered snacks satisfy consumers' desire for healthier snacks with protein and nutritional benefits. The plant-based twisted curls are baked, not fried, and they offer more benefits than comparable corn-based snack products. These plant-based twisted curls are packed with protein and fiber, and at the same time they offer less fat and calories with a crispy, guilt-free texture.
Sav Bellissimo, Head of Store Brands at FCL, says, "There is nothing in the category that has this much protein and fibre and still tastes like a regular salty snack and made locally here in Western Canada”.
