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.

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)!

Snacking with my personal trainer/bodybuilding coach/husband of 30 years will be a treat this summer! We have just concluded our bodybuilding competition season and are looking forward to healthy, 'clean' eating for our growth phase. These look like a snack to hit the spot!

Everyone needs a healthy snack at times! Especially with a cup of green tea or organic coffee. When you get the urge to splurge, eat healthy snacks! Share them with the people you love and new friends.

I always have a mid-morning snack and a mid-afternoon snack. I try and snack healthy... Usually an apple and a GT's Kombucha in the morning, and maybe some carrot sticks or Lydia's Organics Kale Krunchies in the afternoon.
