The catch

Sodium runs 220mg per 1 oz serving, so eating a full 4oz bag lands you around 880mg, roughly 38 percent of a daily limit. (source)

The honest take

These are light, airy chickpea and rice puffs that lean on chickpea and yellow pea flour for a plant based cheesy snack, and the standout number is sugar at under 1g per 1 oz serving with zero added sugar. You get 3g of protein and 2g of fiber per serving, which is fine but modest, so treat this as a cleaner cheesy puff rather than a real protein snack. It is fried in sunflower oil and still an ultra processed food with maltodextrin, natural flavor, and yeast extract on the label, so it is a better swap for Cheetos than a whole food. At 100 calories and 220mg of sodium per 28g serving it snacks light, as long as you do not eat the whole 4oz bag in one sitting.
