Beech-Nut Nutrition Company is launching a new veggie snack for toddlers dubbed Crispeas. The new veggie-forward snack is available in both original and cheese and features puffed green peas baked with a touch of sunflower oil and sea salt. The puffed pea mini-sticks are gluten-free, grain-free, and non-GMO. The new snack aims to make it easier for caregivers to incorporate fruits and vegetables into their little one's diets.
“I know it can be challenging to find snacks that your kids will love and that you still feel good about giving to them. Our new Crispeas are made primarily from peas, and offer a crunchy texture with a savory, delicious flavor that everyone in your house will love,” said Jon Harrington, parent of two and Brand Director for Infant & Toddler Snacks at Beech-Nut.
Available from Amazon, these will become a popular presence in lunchboxes or on the go this season.
