Grandpa Po's A Rising Star!

"The Crunchy Popcorn Snack with Soybeans" that Grandpa Po has created makes us want to meet the ol' man and give him a pat on the back! The mix of organic popcorn and organic soybeans makes a great alternative snack food and we love the resealable pouch. With just the right proportion of soybeans to popcorn this product comes from a company that celebrates food. Score: 97/100. Hooray! And we didn't even have to study!

What on earth are these things?

Simple. They're a yummy mix of nuggets made from organic popcorn and organic dry-roasted soybeans. They're so delicious your head may actually explode once you taste (don't say I didn't warn you). Majorly addictive, these snacks are good for you in small doses. My advice? Divide the bag into individual serving sizes as soon as you open it to avoid inhaling it in one sitting. Find these irresistible treats at most Whole Foods,

Wild Oats, Safeway, Bristol Farms and other

fine markets.

One of the good ones, Grandpa Po's

We get a lot of snack food ideas here in the Vibrant Life office - some are good, and some are... well. One of the good ones is Grandpa Po's Originals. Grandpa Po's are an interesting mixture of roasted soybeans, popcorn pieces, and a few other ingredients. The family recipe was created in 1963, and is now sold in three flavors - Slightly Unsalted, Slightly Spicy and Slightly Sweet.

We've tried the Slightly Unsalted and found them pretty addicting. Grandpa Po's Originals would make a good peanut alternative, particularly for those with peanut allergies. They also seem like

a good way to add the benefits of soybeans to your diet in a way that doesn't have the typical soybeans taste.
