Reading time: 3 min

The JustBite range is carefully put together using a number of strict selection criteria our snacks have to meet. A snack needs to bring something special to the table to earn a spot in our tasty and more nutritious range. That's why we love diving into the details of our selected snacks in our snack reviews.

In this snack review, we're happy to introduce you to the snacks from Food2Smile and why they're part of our range.

Food2Smile. No sugar! That's sweet!

Food2Smile's name suits it perfectly, because thanks to their sugar-free and responsible snacks, a smile is bound to appear on your face.

Miriam, the founder of Food2Smile, put her years of experience as a nutrition expert for families to use to develop sugar-free, more nutritious snacks herself. Her motivation? In her search for products for a responsible treat moment, she couldn't find a single option that met her criteria. And that's how Food2Smile was born.

Food2Smile's goal is to make responsible and, above all, tasty snacking possible. Because Food2Smile and JustBite both believe that snacking definitely fits into a nutritious diet with enough exercise, as long as you choose more nutritious snacks. And that's where Food2Smile steps in with tasty sweets, chips and chocolate you can enjoy with total peace of mind.

All their products are guaranteed free from added sugars and mostly contain only natural colourings and flavourings sourced from vegetables, fruit and herbs.

What's more, 90% of the Food2Smile range is vegan, gluten-free and lactose-free. 

With their balanced snacks, free from nasties contributes to a healthier world. But Food2Smile also wants to work towards a fairer world for everyone and, just like JustBite, supports a good cause. Every Food2Smile product you enjoy contributes to the Jarige Job foundation. This foundation makes sure that children who can't celebrate their birthday due to difficult financial circumstances at home can still enjoy a lovely birthday thanks to a birthday box.

With the snacks from Food2Smile in your JustBite snack box so you eat well and do good at the same time.

Why are Food2Smile's Popped Chips part of the JustBite range?

As you probably know, a snack doesn't just waltz into our range. First, it has to pass our strict selection process, where we look at the ingredients, the composition and, of course, the taste. The Popped Chips were weighed up and approved. We're happy to tell you why these savoury snacks from Food2Smile passed our test.

Ingredients

Unlike classic deep-fried chips, these chips contain very little fat - up to 60% less. They're also a good source of protein, as they're made from half soy and half potato. On top of that, they contain only natural flavourings, so no nasties. 

Composition

Thanks to their balanced composition, the Popped Chips tick a number of health boxes that really matter to JustBite. Here's a rundown of the most important ones.

Source of protein

Because they're made from half potato and half soy pieces, the Popped Chips are a good source of protein. So why is it such a good thing that your snack is rich in protein? Proteins are important building blocks for our body. Among other things, they support the healthy growth and optimal recovery of your muscles. They're an important energy source for your body and help keep you feeling fuller for longer.

This also makes them especially suitable for athletes.

High in fibre

Fibre also plays an important role in a more nutritious diet, and the Popped Chips are packed with fibre that helps keep hunger at bay for longer.

Fibre also plays a part in a happy stomach, helping with smooth digestion and the prevention of many chronic diseases.

So go ahead and enjoy those Popped Chips — your stomach will thank you too.

No added sugars

Food2Smile's tagline isn't for nothing: "No sugar! That's sweet." The products from Food2Smile, including the Popped Chips, contain no added sugars and that's just how we like it!

You might not expect it, but traditional chips often contain quite a lot of added sugar. That makes them a less nutritious snack choice. But the Popped Chips are different.

Vegan

Whether you consciously choose a vegan lifestyle or just occasionally skip products of animal origin, you can enjoy the Popped Chips from Food2Smile with total peace of mind, since all the chips are guaranteed vegan.

Gluten-free 

Whether you need to eat gluten-free or simply choose to now and then gluten-free, it's always handy to know that your responsible snack is gluten-free. And these deliciously crunchy chips are indeed completely free of gluten.

Taste

The taste of a more nutritious snack remains the most important criterion, of course, which is why our taste panel dedicated themselves fully to testing the Popped Chips. And our verdict is unanimously enthusiastic.

The Popped Chips have that essential crunch you expect from chips, and the seasoning is well balanced, ranging from mild and salty to surprising paprika to spicy pepper and salt. When you open the bag, you're greeted by a pleasant chip aroma and flavour. Absolutely worth trying if you're after a more nutritious savoury snack.

Conclusion

The Popped Chips from Food2Smile have definitely earned their spot in the JustBite snack boxes. They help you snack responsibly thanks to their balanced composition and pure ingredients. And they're just really, really tasty.

Crisp fans are sure to get their fix with this snack, while treating their bodies right at the same time.
