Mediterranean Snacks® Receives Gluten-Free Certification for Baked Lentil Chips®
Mediterranean Snacks®, manufacturer of nutritious legume-based snacks like Baked Lentil Chips®, Lentil Crackers, and new HummuZ crispz™, announced today that they have now received official Gluten-Free Certification for all of their Baked Lentil Chips. This completes the Gluten-Free Certification for the brand’s three signature products, as its Lentil Crackers and new HummuZ crispz already carry the GFCO certification. The development brings Mediterranean Snacks into an elite, innovative group within the better-for-you snack category as one of the only companies with Gluten-Free Certification for such a broad variety of legume based snacks, across three key product segments - Chips, Crackers, and Crisps. For those consumers with gluten intolerance, certain food allergies, celiac disease, or simply desiring a gluten free diet, this now provides them with even more tasty snacking choices.
All three of these healthful products harness the power of legumes to create snacks that deliver solid nutrition along with a sturdy crunch in a delicious and satiating serving. Baked Lentil Chips are a delicious, low fat, calorically smart alternative to traditional fried chips. In addition to being Gluten-Free Certified and natural, they are a good source of fiber, made from protein-rich, nutritious lentils, garbanzo and adzuki beans. And with 22 chips in a single serving from only 110 calories, they are the perfect snack for an active lifestyle and on-the-go crunch craving. Mediterranean Snacks Lentil Crackers are the first cracker made with protein-rich lentils, and are a tasty solution for health-conscious consumers looking for a pleasing crunch. In addition to being a good source of protein, they also provide a satisfying serving of 14 crackers for only 110 calories. HummuZ crispz are an all-natural, gluten-free certified answer to snack cravings. Baked with real garbanzo beans (chickpeas), these lighter-than-a-cracker and sturdier-than-a-chip snacks are a good source of protein and are bursting with a wholesome crunch. HummuZ crispz are the perfect compliment to hummus or salsa, and available in 1 oz portion control sizes as well. With only 120 calories in a 14 crispz serving, Gluten-free Certification and non-GMO verification, new HummuZ crispz offer health-conscious consumers a great tasting, nutritious snack.
“We are so pleased to achieve Gluten-Free Certification for our flagship product and to be able to say that we offer three unique Gluten-Free Certified snacks that are nutritious, flavorful, and support a healthy, active lifestyle,” said Vincent P. James, founder and CEO of The Mediterranean Snack Food Company. “We’re proud of what we’ve been able to accomplish - snacks that have a top notch nutritional profile, leave you feeling satisfied and taste great.”
