The catch

Sodium is the real tradeoff at 210mg per 1 oz serving, and since a bag holds about four servings, polishing it off means roughly 840mg, over a third of the daily limit. (source)

The honest take

These are baked chickpea puffs that lean on chickpea and rice flour, so you get 4g of plant protein and 3g of fiber per 1 oz serving, which is more than most cheese puffs give you. The white cheddar flavor is fully plant based with no dairy, and the ingredient list stays short and recognizable, all organic. The honest reality is that this is still a salty, oil fried style snack at 170 calories and 210mg sodium per ounce, so it sits closer to a better puff than a genuinely virtuous one. A health minded shopper reaches for it as a swap from conventional cheese puffs, not as a daily habit.
