My grandson was born prematurely with multiple health issues, so many I can’t name them all. He was born allergic to 13+ food items, including dairy, wheat, gluten, soy, and many more.
At the
top of the list of foods he was/is allergic to, is peanuts. YES, he had the
DEADLY PEANUT ALLERGY. We could not even have nuts in the house. But, I digress
here. Let me get back on track.
Needless
to say, his diet was severely limited. Grandson was about two and a half or
three years old at the time and there was not much he could eat. With that in
mind, my daughter went into research mode looking for a healthy snack for
Grandson. During her research, she found these Harvest Snaps Snapea Crisps. The Snapea Crisps did not contain anything that he was allergic to. She
bought them, and the rest is history!
She
introduced them to Grandson, and he fell in love with them immediately. From
that point on, she could barely keep up with the demand because he ate them as
fast as she could buy them. He calls them “Green Beans”. So, around our house
they are officially known as “Green Beans”.
The #1
and best thing about these Snapea Crisps
/Green Beans is that my grandson with his multitude of allergies could safely
eat them.
The next
thing I love about these green bean crisps is that they are baked instead of
fried. They only have a tiny hint of salt. AND, they are delicious.
We give
grandson a few at a time in a bowl and he is munching almost before we can let
go of the bowl. *NOTE: He insists on having a wet wipe along with his green
beans, for his hands.
Another
great thing about these green beans is that they are a healthy alternative to regular
potato chips. You get that same chewy crunch as potato chips with these green
beans. They are crisp, like the name says and they are also very light.
On the
downside, I find them to be a bit pricey. But, who am I to complain about the
price? I have not had to buy a single bag…ever. His mommy buys them. Even with
the price, these green beans are worth the price so that my highly allergic grandson
can have a healthy snack.
For
anyone interested in a healthy snack for kids with allergies, try these Snapea Crisps. You’ll be happily
surprised.

Funny to see you review this as we have a constant supply of this at home. It is such a good snack for us.
