Shrewd Food Changing the Protein Snack Category?
I have a really cool neighbor who is into health and fitness and every once in a while, he drops off some samples of things he buys for me to try and to take look at. I opened my mailbox the other day to find packages with the name Shrewd Food on them. What the heck is that? I started reading the packaging and quickly realized that the contents of the individual bags were protein snacks. No surprise if you follow my content, I love protein snack items (even protein croutons).
After working for a supplement company for nearly a decade and working out prior to my time with the supplement company (and obviously I am still deep in the industry), I started to get bored with protein bars and protein shakes years ago. I wanted something different. Something I could actually chew (other than a protein bar). I wanted high-protein snacks. I tried brownies. Cookies. Cereal. Cakes. You name it, I tried it. Many of the items I enjoyed and some of them I swore were dog food and were trying to poison me. Then came these snacks from Shrewd Food.
A High Protein Treat from Shrewd Food
The products I was given by my neighbor (shout out to Jared Green), were the Protein Crisps from Shrewd Food. Each flavor has around 90 calories, 14g of protein, 3g of fat, 2g of carbohydrates, and 1g of sugar. All things considered, the profile on the Shrewd Food Protein Crisps were a home run. I am not talking about barely making it over the fence either. I am talking about knocked the damn ball out of the park.
Pop these little balls in your mouth and be prepared to have your socks blown off (there is a dirty joke in there somewhere). Each bag of the Shrewd Food Protein Crisps is high in protein, low in carbohydrates, contains no corn syrup, peanuts or tree nuts, nor uses any artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives. In all honesty, when I looked at the call-outs on the label as well as the nutrition facts, I was convinced something with this type of profile would taste like cardboard. Boy was I wrong!
At the time or writing this article, the Protein Crisps come in five flavors like brickoven pizza, sriracha cheddar, baked cheddar, smokehouse maple (launching soon), and cookies & cream. No lie, there is not a bad flavor out of the whole bunch. Obviously, you would need to be hungry for any specific flavor, but none of them will disappoint from a flavor standpoint (at least not from my taste buds).
It should also be noted that Shrewd Food also carries cookies. They come in a chocolate chip flavor as well as oat and berry. I have not tried their cookies (yet), but definitely intend to soon. The cookies are half the protein content of the protein crisps but still sound really good and have a good profile. And if you enjoy eating salads but wanted more protein other than adding something like chicken, they also sell individual bags of parmesan herb protein croutons.
