at least I pretend that they're healthy. These are SO TASTY...and not a chemical burn...some time ago the company revamped the recipe and it no longer includes MSG or other scary multi-syllable preservatives. I am obsessed with this snack and they're tough to find locally. Check 'em out.

We discovered these when my son was 3 years old, he is now 4 and still loves his "pea pods". Also, all of his little friends are also into them. With 5 grams of protein a serving they are not a unhealthy snack, great for the beach of wherever. We are big fans, and highly recommend them!!

I contacted the company and they acknowledged they do indeed use GMO corn oil.... though they did also say that they would submit my concerns around GMO food products up the chain, it was unlikely they would change ingredients any time soon. Bummer. This is a GREAT snack, but I won't let my growing, developing, child have much... this will be my guilty pleasure......but it would be SO MUCH BETTER if you could trust the ingredients for your children too.

Although I enjoyed the taste and texture of the Snapea Crisps, I found eating them in small quantities was important. They are somewhat greasy and are not as healthy as they may seem in regards to calories.

I'm excited to find these for sale on Amazon, and at a very reasonable price! I just tried them for the first time a few days ago, and was wishing there was a nearby store that carried them. Everyone I've given them to has liked them, even those who are not normally healthy eaters. These crisps are reminiscent of puffy corn snacks (like cheetos), but with a different light flavor. The calorie content is similar to other chip-type snacks (150 per serving), but these have the nutrition benefits of peas--protein (5g per serving), calcium (6% DV per serving), and iron (4% DV per serving). I haven't tried the Ceasar flavor yet, but intend to do so in the near future. :)

Our whole family loves this snack. These make a great toddler snack (they're kind of puffy, so if you don't actually chew them, they'll just melt). My 2-year old has been eating these for a year now, and is constantly asking for his "Peapods?" A portable snack, far superior nutritionally to the typical cookie, cracker, goldfish, pretzel and other processed junk most kids are eating. These are just dehydrated snap peas, corn oil and salt (and there's still LESS sodium in these than Pepperidge Farm's low-sodium goldfish!). A great alternative to the usual snack highly processed of white flour, sugar, salt and/or chemical preservatives. They're better for you, and they taste great. We love them.

You know, they used to say that smoking was good for the lungs. Now, we're told that a greasy little snack in a bag is "healthy." But, while this isn't an apple or a cup of yogurt, Snapeas are a far cry from bright orange Doritas or Ding Dongs. They are baked (not fried), and perhaps there is merit to the pea foundation, as opposed to the potato or corn chip format. They are major addictive - full of unique flavor, a pleasantly crisp but foamy (as in styrofoamy) texture, a dash of saltiness, and just enough oilyness to satisfy. Try these and then spread the word.

This is an awesome tasting snack. The cheapest place near us is Trader Joe's and they sell it for $1.50. Amazon is even cheaper! You cannot just eat one.....we finish the whole bag each time we open it!

this product was introduced to me during a CURVES low carb/low fat exercize and lose inches program.

I was surpized how tasty this product is.. I have shared a bag or two with friends and they are surprized...even those who are not vegetable eaters.......the product is well liked......

The serving size is 22 pieces, great for those a low carb / low fat reduced eating program....

These are extraordinary. Crunchy, tender and tasty. I use them in salads, added at the last minute like croutons. Also terrific for snacks.
