The chaos before leaving for a trip is always the worst. You have so many things you say you want to do and need to do but in the end, lots of things get left behind.
In that mess, I did not have time to go out and buy snacks. I was about to leave the East coast not prepared with those grab snacks I could need on my business trip. Well I lucked out. The day before I had a lovely package arrive from the friends at SeaSnax.
Before you turn up your nose at the thought of eating seaweed, you must try these. I am all about a salty snack to satisfy any craving – especially when salty doesn’t mean racking up the sodium count. Sodium does not do well with my sensitive stomach so snacks naturally low in sodium packed with flavor are a must.
These snacks are gluten free, vegan and no GMOs in each of the flavors. They are made using 100% olive oil and a pinch of sea salt making them – as their slogan says- strangely addicting. No lie, it looks like you are legit eating seaweed but boy do they taste bomb. The seaweed used is porphyra also referred to as Nori or Kim. There are lots of benefits from eating seaweed. It is rich in minerals such as iodine and iron, calcium and vitamins B1, B6, C and E.
I was sent the little snack packs as well as the larger seaweed papers. I got five flavors to try, all of which I liked more and more. The flavors were original, olive, wasabi, chipotle and toasty onion. I had only had the original and toasty onion before this trial. Well, the second I tried chipotle I was hooked. A nice punch of spice without an overwhelming mouth on fire feel. The wasabi was the same way. Both these flavors in other snacks usually overpower the whole experience but not in these SeaSnaxs.
You can find these online but also at Whole Foods and most health food stores. If you need an easy pack snack to satisfy any salt craving, I recommend you giving these a try!
These sound cool! Definitely wanna look for those next time I hit up whole foods!
So tasty, I promise you.
I’ve seen these at Whole Foods but have yet to try them. Perhaps now I will! Have a great trip!
They are mighty tasty.
I love seaweed snacks soo much!!! they have them at Trader Joes too!
I wish I knew of a trader joe’s closer to me!
I’ve never seen those but they sound tasty, actually. I would definitely try them and might pick them up if I see them at Whole Foods.
They are amazing, this brand is my favorite.
i’ve never tried this brand but i LOVE TJ’s wasabi sea weed and straight up toasted nori!!! also, weird, but good dipped in pb!
this brand is by far my favorite, for some reason they have way more flavor.
I have a seriously bizarre love of seaweed! It’s so good to me
Best part of sushi hehe.
I agree!
omg my sister eats them all the time, and I’ve been meaning to steal one and try it forever! I was just at whole foods earlier too aaah now I need to go back haha! I wanna try the chipotle one!
my favorite has to be a tie between toasty onion and chipotle. So good!
My favorite snacks!! I haven’t ordered recently because of the move, but I usually order a case a month. I HEART SEASNAX!!
I am thinking I need to order them in bulk because it is way cheaper and so worth it.
Yum I love seaweed snacks! I usually eat the ones from trader joes, but will have to give these a try
For some reason this is my favorite brand for sure.
Everyone buys these at my work! I need to try them!
Seriously try them, so addicting.
When I was in 2nd grade, I used to trade my fruit roll up for my friend’s seaweed. She was from Hawaii so it was a big thing in her family. Anywho, I think I got burnt out on seaweed so I don’t like it anymore haha.
that is hilarious! I never would have even tasted seaweed when I was young.
Yum, these remind me of the Trader Joe’s roasted seaweed snacks but I love that these come in other flavors. Toasty onion sounds amazing!
I love snacking on seaweed! Except it is so hard to stop..
agreed, so agreed.
I. Love. Seaweed! It’s the asian in me. Straight up without taste is good too. d:
Ha, glad you can share that passion
Seaweed snacks are the bomb.com! I stocked up when I was in China and they make a great chip alternative!
i know! so great.
I’m sorry but anything that has seaweed in it, I just can’t get into, there’s a barrier that goes up and I can’t get around it. So don’t worry I won’t go and buy every package of this ever made. You’ll still be able to find it for yourself.
just try these…. some people love them some people hate them.
I love seaweed! These look really good!
this is my favorite brand by far, I could eat bags of these.
I’ve never tried these, but I love seaweed! It tastes so good when you add it into salads and rice bowls. I’ll have to keep my eye out for these!
these are amazing, i seriously am addicted to them.
Those look very interesting.. in a good way
Have a great trip!
Thank you, they are delicious.
I’m a little weary of seaweed but my boyfriend loves it. Maybe I’ll muster up the courage if I see these at the store!
These sound delish! And I bet it’d be great for one of those, ‘must-have-salt’ moments.
I hope you have an amazing trip!
it really is, so tasty.
