We get it, when you think of crisps, you probably think of salty wafer-thin slices of fried or baked potato. But nowadays, the market has expanded to include crisps made from a variety of other ingredients like fruits and vegetables.

Each pack contains fresh seaweed and are high in fibre.

JU22 – Very tasty snack! – 5/5 stars
“First time I’ve had these... will definitely buy again!”
We know vegan cheese and seaweed may sound like an odd combo, but we promise you Emily’s seaweed crisps pack a real punch.
The delicious seaweed is coated with a layer of tapioca, which gives these crisps their cheesy taste. Ideal to throw in your bag for a lunch treat or to sprinkle over salads or soups, you can enjoy these delicious crisps whichever way you choose.
These low-calorie, gluten-free crisps contain no nasties, but are a great source of fibre and a good source of iodine too (thanks to their seaweed content).

“My son loves them and so do I. I order them in big batch so I can always have them in the pantry.”
Grown in Yorkshire, The Honest Bean Co are on a mission to get people munching on British fava beans, and what better way to enjoy them than coated in a zingy sea salt and cider vinegar flavouring?
These crunchy, tangy beans make an excellent plant-powered snack, whether you’re sitting in front of the TV or out and about.
Fava beans are naturally nutritious, containing plant-powered protein and essential fibre. Plus, they’re made using 81% fava beans, so you can rest assured there’s no nasties here.

We know these aren’t your traditional packet of crisps, but these crunchy shiitake mushrooms are revolutionary.
Baked slowly at low temperatures and sprinkled with a little Himalayan salt, these shiitake mushrooms have an earthy, Umami taste for a delicious, indulgent savoury treat.
At only 99kcal per portion, these gourmet savoury treats are high in fibre and contain less fat than your regular fried potato snacks. One of your five-a-day and with no artificial colours, preservatives or additives, these Other Foods’ crunchy mushrooms are good enough to eat whenever you like.

For a tangy, mouthwatering treat, pick up a packet of Cheesies’ red Leicester crunchy popped cheese bites. These lip-smacking crisps are made from cubes of red Leicester cheese which has been dried and baked to make crunchy and downright irresistible bites.
With no carbs, no sugar and high in protein, these bites are made from just one ingredient: cheese. A great keto snack to sprinkle on a salad or to enjoy whenever you fancy, these crisp alternatives are a worthwhile addition to your snack collection.
