Way Better Snacks

At Whole Foods Market®, we love sharing good food and drink. Whether it’s a peak-of-the-season berry, a team member creation from our bakery, sausages made in house or a new grocery discovery, we love celebrating great flavors and products. But we don’t just want to tell you about it; we want you to enjoy it too. So, we’re doing a series of summer giveaways through mid-August.

Perhaps it’s the seasonal wardrobe of swimsuits, shorts and sundresses or maybe it’s the active days filled with time at the pool and park but there’s just something about summer that makes me want to eat right. Minimal ingredients and minimally processed foods free of all that icky stuff – that’s what I want this summer. Even for my snacks. Whether it’s a meal or fueling up in-between, you too likely are looking for foods you can feel good about eating and sharing with others. That’s why we’re giving away a case of tortilla chips that taste good and that you can feel good about. Read on to find out how to enter to win.

What do you get when you add sprouted whole grains and seeds to a tortilla chip? A Way Better Snack, of course! Way Better Snacks virtually named themselves. All their products are:

  • Vegan
  • Non-GMO Project verified
  • Kosher
  • Excellent source of whole grains
  • Low sodium
  • Meet Whole Foods Market’s strict quality standards of foods that are free of artificial preservatives, colors, flavors and sweeteners, as well as hydrogenated fats

Plus, their ingredient lists are simple (and easy to pronounce). Take a look at what makes up their tasty Simply Sweet Potato Sprouted Tortilla Chips for example: Stone Ground Corn, High Oleic Sunflower and/or Safflower Oil, Sweet Potato, Organic Sprouted Quinoa, Organic Sprouted Chia Seed, Pure Sea Salt It takes more than a great-looking ingredient list to make a superior snack; it’s got to taste great too, and Way Better Snacks do. Whether you’re looking for a snack for party time or any time, Way Better Snack tortillas chips are a great match (or munch!) for salsa, hummus, guacamole, pico de gallo and other dips. Yup, the name says it all – Way Better Snacks. They’re a recent – and very welcomed – addition to our shelves this year, so look for them at your local Whole Foods Market.

Are you responsible for nourishing staycation kids, happy campers, reuniting family members or simply looking for sensible snacks for yourself? Tell us who you'll be snacking with this summer in the comments below by Tuesday, July 31. We’ll pick a winner at random to receive a case of Way Better Snacks Sprouted Tortilla Chips – Simply Sunny Multi Grain, Simply Sweet Potato, Simply So Sweet Chili or a mixed case of all three (winner’s choice)!

My favorite people, Black Rock Rangers at Burning Man in the Nevada Desert. We work hard and play hard and when we're ready for a dusty break in the hot days or cold nights we snack on whatever is quick and easy.

I am eating healthier these days and am working on helping my Dad also. He's having a difficult time giving up his "treats" so anything that I find is extra tasty is a great help for both of us!

I'm a mom to a one-year-old, and am always scouting for healthier and easy snacks to keep at work so I can stay fueled throughout the day and have enough energy for playtime when I get home.

I snack with my kids and my mom. I have three great kids, one with autism who is on a strict GFCF diet. We shoot for healthy and/or organic stacks as much as possible. It is so great to have healthy options for growing kids! My mom has had to live with us this year because I had a severe health issue and caused me to not be able to care for my kids. I love having foods she can grab and go for my kids as well.

I love snacking with my 4 kids and my husband. We are very selective in what we buy and these chips look like they'd fit right in at our house!

I'll be snacking poolside with the kids and my dear friends. I also enjoy snacking with the girls at book club on Thursday nights. And our long road trips to see family - snacking is essential for that.

Schools not out in the summer at our house! I have the good fortune of spending time with children year 'round. Not only is teaching my profession and my calling, the neighborhood children, my friends' kiddos and of course my own lil cubbies find their way to our backyard and our table during the summer! On average, there are five or six little ones at my house each day...and I wouldn't have it any other way!

I do many triathlons in the summer (usually on the weekends. It never fails the night before a race people are eating chips and yummy snacks while I feel left out. These snacks sound like a perfect evening before a race go to snack!

I will be with my Parents this summer and I can't wait because there both up in age with health issues and they live 6 hours away from me (in Southern IL) and I'm only fortunate enough to go there and see them once a year and you can be sure that I will be packing lots of Whole Foods products to give them because they do not have one near there home and I know that they will be eating much healthier and the foods will even taste better to them if I do that. They fed me all my life til adulthood so I say that I do the same for them now. They deserve the very best!!!

I will be snacking with my 5-year old twin boys during the day and my hubby at night. I love tortilla chips - especially when I don't have to feel guilty about indulging in my favorite snack food!

We love gathering our friends and family together for grill outs, swimming, and summer memories. These chips look like a great appetizer with guacomole , cheeses, and/ or fruit before our grillied meal!
