Most bag of chips lack any form of nutritional benefits and contain loads of salt, fat, sugar, and GMO’s. Protes is gluten free, vegan, certified non-GMO, and kosher. The chips are baked instead of fried. The protein in Protes comes from peas and it is the first ingredient.

Zesty Nacho

When you open up a bag of zesty nacho, you can smell the nacho spices. They have a delicious cheesy flavor with a small kick to it from the spices. They taste like a cheese flavored cracker.

Spicy Chili Lime

The spicy chili lime is bursting with the taste of lime. It is a tiny bit spicy from the chili. All in all, it’s the perfect amount of heat with the lime flavor. It’s the perfect flavor balance that makes you want to keep eating more. 

Toasted Coconut

You can smell the coconut flavoring when you open up the bag of toasted coconut. The smell is amazing! When you bite into the toasted coconut chip, you get a massive amount of coconut flavor. It is sweet but only contains 1 gram of sugar, which is unbelievable! The flavoring is so strong from the first bite to the last. You send your tastebuds on a trip to the tropics with this one.

Just to pick one, my favorite is toasted coconut. I love coconut anything and these are bursting with coconut flavor. But, they are all amazing. It is unbelievable that a product that is healthy can taste so delicious.

“Good food is not a luxury, it’s a right.” This quote right here is everything I stand for. A couple of months ago, I wrote a blog post called “Make America Organic Again“, where I touched on the topic that organic food is a right. This week I went to the new Lucky’s Market that just opened up in Plantation, Florida ( a suburb of Fort Lauderdale). As I walked up to the cash register, I saw this huge quote hung up on the wall. It said “Good food is not a luxury, it’s a right.” I saw it and I immediately took a picture of it. The meaning of that quote is something that I strongly believe in.

Now, with the increasing demand for organic and Non-GMO foods, it is starting to get easier to buy organics at a lower cost. But even with the demand, of course the supply isn’t matching up to it yet. Organic food unfortunately still carries a bad reputation for being expensive and unaffordable for low-income families. Just writing that sentence makes me sick to my stomach. Literally every time I hear someone say, “I wish I could afford organic food” my body heats up and it makes my heart want to explode. Why can’t all of our food be grown without GMO’s, pesticides, herbicides, hormones, antibiotics, chemicals, artificial colors, and other harsh components that we have absolutely no idea about? Why is it that only the “rich” people can afford to buy and eat food that should already be grown that way? It just doesn’t make sense and it is sickening.

We all have the right to eat food that is grown organically. Food is one of the basic human needs and we deserve food that is good for us. Sadly, there is only a small percentage of the population who are aware and mindful about what they eat. Also, several people lack the knowledge of how our food is grown. And quite frankly, most people are uneducated on how to eat organic. Still, many people disregard the fact that our food system is broken. Why? Because no one talks about it.

For me, starting out an organic diet was no simple task. During college, I sacrificed a lot and worked hard to have that type of diet at that age. I studied and dedicated a lot of my time to learning about an organic diet and what it took to have one. I would go to about 5 different grocery stores just so that I can get the best price possible. At that time, for me, eating organic was my lifestyle. From my peers and roommates point of view it was a luxury and I was seen as prestigious, unfortunately. But still, that never stopped me.

So this is me, Sara, taking a written stand for all of you! We ALL deserve to be nourished with foods that are meant to fuel us, not harm us. I am a huge proponent for organic food and I will always support this lifestyle. I want to help you all pursue a healthy organic lifestyle because you all deserve it! I am here to answer any questions or help you in regards to an organic lifestyle. And remember “Good food is not a luxury, it’s a right.”

Have you ever wanted to take “a natural trip to paradise” but you were stuck in the snowy weather up North or you live in an area without a beach? Well, now you can with Matt’s Munchies!

Matt’s Munchies is a premium fruit snack that has less than 100 calories for the whole pack. There are 1 to 2 servings of fruit in each package. Matt’s Munchies are certified organic, vegan, soy free, peanut free, dairy free, gluten free, NON-GMO Project Verified, and kosher. The best part of all is that each flavor has 3 ingredients or less with ingredients you can pronounce. Could this snack get any more perfect?

Flavors

Each pack comes with little squares of the fruit snack (about 14-16 pieces) for a tropical wholesome taste in every bite.

BANANA

The banana flavor contains one serving of fruit. The ingredients include organic banana puree and Vitamin C. The banana one has a sweet taste with banana flavor bursting through. It is kind of like you are eating a sweet plantain in a fruit snack form.

MANGO

The mango flavor contains 2 servings of fruit per package. It only has one ingredient, which is organic mango puree concentrate. You feel like you are eating a sweet delicious mango when you try this flavor.

MANGO ACAI

The mango acai flavor contains 2 servings of fruit per package. It only contains 2 ingredients, which include organic mango puree concentrate and organic acai pulp. In this one, you can taste the acai flavor more than the mango. It is a great flavor profile with the acai berry taste and a hint of mango. It has that minor sour and sweet taste which makes it like a healthier candy.

ISLAND MANGO

The island mango flavor contains 1.5 servings of fruit per package. It only contains 3 ingredients, which include organic mango puree concentrate, organic coconut flakes, and organic coconut flavor concentrate. Because of how amazing the smell of coconut is present when you open the package, you immediately want to devour it. The taste is divine with toasted coconut flakes mixed with the taste of mango and coconut! You are in paradise heaven with this flavor.

APPLE-LICIOUS

The apple-licious flavor contains 2 servings of fruit per package. It only contains 2 ingredients, which include organic mango puree concentrate, and organic apple flavor concentrate. This one has a light sweet apple flavor with the hint of mango.

If I had to choose 1, I would go with the Island Mango. Just the smell of coconut, and the taste of coconut and mango, send your taste buds into a paradise tropical heaven. But, they are all amazing and taste so pure, fresh, sweet, delicious, and they are all full of flavor. You can eat these as a healthy snack or even to satisfy your candy cravings.

So the next time you are wishing you were on a trip to paradise, just go to your natural/organic food market instead and pick up a few packs of Matt’s Munchies.
