The catch

Despite the organic label it is still a corn puff with only 2g protein and 1g fiber per 28g serving plus 3g saturated fat from coconut oil, so it satisfies a craving more than it nourishes. (source)

The honest take

This is a cheese ball reimagined with cleaner pantry, organic milled corn puffed in avocado and coconut oil with a real cheddar seasoning instead of neon powder and seed oils. Nutritionally it is still a snack, not a health food, with 130 calories, just 2g protein and 1g fiber per 28g serving, and the coconut oil pushes saturated fat to 3g. What you are really paying for is the sourcing, organic corn, avocado oil, real cultured cheddar and no artificial dyes or flavors, which is a genuine upgrade over a conventional cheese puff. If you want a familiar crunchy treat with a shorter, recognizable ingredient list, it delivers, but it will not keep you full.
