About VitaBites!
VitaBites (MSRP $1.99 per bite), the company’s new line of vegetarian snack bites the mission of universalizing access to wholesome, plant-based meals in an effort to cultivate resilient communities.
VitaBites, the protein power bite with only 5 ingredients, is the latest tasty creation from VitaBowl and the first nationally available product to be released. With few snacks containing pure ingredients, VitaBites was developed to fill a huge gap in the protein bar and snack categories by being dairy-free, gluten-free, nut-free, soy-free, GMO-free, and sugar-free without any added preservatives while still remaining shelf-stable. Utilizing simple whole ingredients and incorporating the lesser-known natural sweetener monk fruit sugar, the bites are reminiscent of eating a spoonful of chocolate chip cookie dough-like (texture) straight out of the bowl. VitaBites are packed with 5 grams of protein, vitamins, and minerals while having a low glycemic index that is even suitable for diabetics so they can truly by enjoyed by everyone regardless of diet restrictions.
Despite the drastic changes in routines for many people, the demand is still high for healthy quick snacks with nutrition being a dominant deciding factor.
“As an athlete and someone who travels a lot, the things I am looking for are convenience and quality — when you get both of those things, that’s a home run!” says performance athlete Austin Healy.
Currently, there are very limited options in the market for nutrient-dense, convenient, on-demand snacks that are also packaged with eco-friendly materials and VitaBites hit the mark with this new product. The shape of the bites was thoughtfully created to help extend shelf life without the use of preservatives or unnecessary ingredients while the slim biodegradable package design allows them to be easily thrown into a bag or stored in the pantry.
As investor and advisor Oliver Trevena says, “They are so small but they’ve got everything you need for energy”, don’t be deceived by the size because they are a rich source of protein, fiber, and omegas which provide sustained energy. “
