Product showcase 2020: Where to find an online snack to fend off that attack while self-isolating

This Saves Lives

Celeb-founded This Saves Lives has launched its second better-for-you kids snack line, Kids Krispy Kritter Treats, along with new flavours for its Classic Bars and Kids Snack Bars.

Cofounded by American actors Kristen Bell, Ryan Devlin, Todd Grinnell and Ravi Patel, the snack brand is on a mission to end early childhood malnutrition.

With every purchase, consumers life-saving food to a child in need. The company matches each purchase by sending a packet of peanut paste full of vitamins and nutrients, specifically made to treat malnutrition to one of its international NGO partners, who then dispatch it to children who need it most, from Haiti to Somalia.

It is now committed to helping out people who are suffering as a result of COVID-19.

For a limited time online, the company will also match every purchase to a food insecure family in the US. Shoppers looking to give back can use founder codes TODD25, KB25, RAVI25 and RYAN25 for 25% off any order.

This Saves Lives snacks are Non-GMO Project Verified, gluten free and kosher. The Kids lines are made with fruits and veggies that kids won’t detect, and are free of the top 8 allergens.

Available on ThisSavesLives.com and Amazon, as well as selected Starbucks, Whole Foods and Target.

Real Handful

The healthier snacks start-up has launched the #STOCKUPSMALL campaign to encourage consumers to help small businesses get through these strange and uncertain times.

While the FMCG sector is nervous about what the future might bring in the weeks and months to come, it seems the pandemic is here to stay, so the nation must knuckle down and adapt in new ways.

As such, the campaign makes the call out for consumers to shop from smaller entrepreneurs, where products are made with passion and love.

Real Handful is encouraging other small businesses to add the hashtag #STOCKUPSMALL to their posts so consumers can find some of their new favourite brands easily.

The brand has also launched its own discount to consumers willing to shop small. Use the code STOCKUP on realhandful.com for 15% off.

Now four years old, the Manchester-based brand has achieved nationwide success and is also available in over 2,500 stores across the UK, including Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Asda, Waitrose and Ocado.

RIND Snacks

Rind is offering free shipping on all online orders for consumers caught up in quarantine.

The sustainable snack brand encourages consumers to ‘keep it real and eat the peel’. Its range of tangy and chewy sun-dried snack blends use the whole fruit, including the skin to add maximise flavour and nutrition.

According to the New York-based producer, fruit rinds, on average, contain three to four times the fibre content than the flesh alone, which promotes gut and heart health, and improves memory. Rinds also contain greater vitamin and antioxidant concentration than an equivalent serving of a fruit’s flesh.

Each 3oz bag of Rind contains as much as 14g of dietary fibre, representing 50% of an individual’s recommended daily allowance.
