Ancient Grains Show Up in Snacks

High-protein quinoa isn’t just for side dishes anymore. It’s finding its way into sweet snacks and energy bars. The company iheartkeenwah makes quinoa clusters in four different flavors, including Chocolate Sea Salt. And KIND features the grain in its Maple Walnut Clusters with Chia and Quinoa. Several small companies like Fiona’s Natural Foods are using quinoa in bars, but we predict you’ll see larger companies get creative with it this year.
