Unjunk Your Snacks with PEATOS!

Warning: They actually taste good!

By Michele Pullo October 31, 2018

My kids love to snack, I think most kids do.  My daughter would forego pretty much any meal for snacking, which is why I was thrilled to discover Peatos.  This month has been particularly busy for our family and I am not going to win Mother of the Year this year (again!).  I haven't been meal planning, more like; if you find food grab it because we have to get going!  Peatos have been a perfect go-to until I can get my kids a legit meal.  

Peatos Classic Cheese snacks deliver a bold cheese flavor with that big crunch snacking experience we all crave, but without those empty calories. Made with real cheese and nutritionally dense Pulses (sustainable peas and lentils), Peatos provide finger-licking flavor with the added benefit 4 grams of protein and 3 grams of fiber. These crave-able snacks taste like “junk food” but are packing some serious substance!  So while they aren't your traditional health food, they are a better choice than mainstream snack foods and are just plain yummy!

All four flavors are gluten-free and free of GMOs. Masala and Fiery Hot Peatos are vegan while Chili Cheese and Classic Cheese Peatos are vegetarian, but not vegan (they contain dairy).  No MSG, no artificial flavors, no synthetic colors and did I mention that kids love them?

If you like spicy snacks, try the Fiery Hot variety.  My son's friends love the spicy version, while my daughter and I prefer the Classic Cheese. I plan to have a few of these on hand for Halloween Trick or Treating, to balance out the sugar coma that is sure to happen without some protein!

You can find Peatos at King Soopers throughout Longmont, Firestone and Gunbarrel, in the produce section.  They carry Classic Cheese and Fiery Hot.  You can also get all 4 varieties on Amazon.
