Crunchies Freeze-Dried Beets: Superfood Meets Snack
Freeze-dried snack line's first vegetable offering
Building on its success with dehydrated single fruits, including raspberries, blueberries and grapes, Westlake Village, Calif.-based Crunchies Natural Food Co., part of the Chaucer Food Group, has expanded into vegetables with Crunchies Freeze-Dried Beets in 1.2-ounce resealable pouches and 0.35-ounce single-serve packs. Beets have an optimal composition for freeze-drying, the company maintains, because they retain their nutrients and antioxidants during the low-pressure drying process. Crunchies beets are non-GMO and made without additives, preservatives or added sugar. The SRP for the resealable pouch is $4.99, while a single-serve pack retails for a suggested $1.69.
