Savory Paleo Snack Packs in Turmeric Garlic

AshaPops Turmeric Garlic is paleo-friendly, and the label runs to six ingredients: water lily seeds, avocado oil, turmeric, garlic, pink Himalayan salt and black pepper. The seeds are popped with heat, never fried, and nothing outside those six lines appears on the panel.

Most savory paleo snacks on the shelf begin with cassava flour, chickpeas or lentils. Turmeric Garlic begins with a seed instead, one that is not a grain, not a legume and not a nut. Nothing in the six-ingredient deck comes from corn or soy, and the panel reads 0 g of added sugars.

Each Multi-Pack holds sealed 0.5 oz bags at 60 calories and 105 mg of sodium apiece, a size that fits a lunchbox, a desk drawer, a laptop bag or a carry-on.

Why Turmeric Garlic Works on a Paleo Diet

A paleo plate skips grains, dairy, legumes and refined sugar. Water lily seeds sit outside all four of those groups. Each one comes from the Euryale ferox water lily, roasted until it pops. Avocado oil is the only oil in the bag. Canola, sunflower and other seed oils are not part of this recipe. On taste, turmeric brings the warmth and the yellow coating, garlic brings the savory side, and black pepper finishes with a mild heat.
