Are your products Non-GMO verified?
Our tortilla chips and crackers are verified by the Non-GMO Project, certifying that they are free from any and all genetically modified ingredients. You can find out more about the organization here at the Non-GMO Project website
Why do some flavors carry the Non-GMO Project Verified Seal and others carry a different Non-GMO seal?
We are committed to having all of our products certified by the Non-GMO Project. We carefully source ingredients that we know to be non-GMO and will pass the Non-GMO’s strict project guidelines for verification. When we first launch a new flavor, we use our own non-GMO symbol while the chip recipe is in the process of being certified through the Non-GMO Project.
Are your products baked or fried?
Both. Our products are first baked in a special multi-level tortilla oven to reduce moisture and give our grains & seeds that yummy, toasted flavor. Then, we fry them for a short time in sunflower oil to give our corn that delicious corn tortilla taste.
Do the oils you use contain trans fats?
No! Way Better Snacks uses sunflower oil to make our products. This oil is naturally free of trans fatty acids and is not hydrogenated in any way. An independent third party lab test verifies this fact.
Where do the healthy Omega 3s come from in your snacks?
The amazing levels of Omega 3 essential fatty acids in our products come from the high oleic oil seeds in our formulas. Our Golden Flax seed, Black Chia seed, Broccoli seed and Daikon Radish seeds all deliver high amounts of healthy Omega 3. Health yeah!
What should I look for when buying “healthier” snacks?
According to a leading fitness magazine, a healthy snack is: 200 calories or less; 0g of trans fat and no more than 3.5g of saturated fat; no more than 400mg of sodium; no high-fructose corn syrup; whole grains, little added sugar and gluten free a plus.
