Grumpy snacks

I am snacking. ALWAYS snacking. 'Cause in the blink of an eye, hungry becomes grumpy. And then no one is safe, especially Tim (my partner). Snacks are the reason our relationship has survived (and why I still have any friends). But the ready-to-eat healthier alternatives are hard to find. This is why Grumpy Snacks was born and why we’ve dedicated ourselves to mastering the art of chickpea roasting.

This little legume packs a nutritional punch, and we spent months in our kitchen perfecting the crunch. Our chickpeas are dry roasted and small fractions of oil and spices are added thereafter, or they are coated in dairy-free vegan chocolate. We use only natural ingredients and each step has been developed to ensure maximum nutrition is available for absorption.

This one’s for the snackers of South Africa. We hope it makes you a little less grumpy too.

Our chickpeas are dry roasted* before being coated in odourless coconut oil and dusted in sea salt and nutritional yeast**

*Dry roasting is just that: dry. There is no oil on the chickpeas whilst they are roasting. Nuts etc are often roasted (or fried) in oil, which adds calories. Additionally, this oil is often re-used; which gives it carcinogenic potential. Our coconut oil is warmed only enough to cause it to melt and applied to the chickpeas after the dry roasting step

**Nutritional yeast: Natural flavourful vegan powder
