Kicking off the list I have a tasty snack that I know almost everyone can enjoy. Being vegan often comes with the despair of seeing milk powder in your once favourite crisps packet. Fortunately, brands like Hippeas swoop in and provide a great alternative that also happens to be much healthier than the average packet of crisps with no artificial nonsense. Each packet is composed of gluten-free, vegan, high-fibre ingredients, (Chickpea flour, quinoa, tapioca flour, sunflower oil, vegan cheese and seasonings Not too bad hey?

3. URBAN FRUIT Gently Baked Fruits
Since I went vegan, eating dried fruit has been an excellent way for me to enjoy fruit on the go without having to worry about my fruit going bad, or the inconvenience of carrying a mango in my back pocket. Urban fruit is a financially viable choice that is also relatively healthy. (when eaten in normal quantities folks!) You can enjoy this treat in the form of baked mangos, pineapples or even strawberries. Pick up a variety pack off amazon if you like, The button below will have you sorted.

But fear no longer, the world’s first vegan prawn crackers are now on the market.

7. Purely Plantain Chips
For this spot, I was going to put Plantain Chips in regardless, but I was conflicted about which brand to choose, but it has to be Purely’s . The best plantain chips containing no artificial additives at all. Just Ecuadorian sun-baked plantains, salt and various spices depending on what flavour you choose. I find that some folks don’t enjoy plantain chips as much as I do but if you like them, go ahead and pick up this all natural brand.

Ingredients: Plantains, Sunflower Oil, Salt, Natural Spices
About:
- Gluten free & vegan
- 75 grams
- low in sugar, high in fibre & potassium,
Dariyah Thomas”I had low expectations for this product as I don’t believe you can get good Plantain chips that have not been subjected to loads of processing that’s obvious in the taste. So I was really glad that these were quite well done such that I can enjoy the taste and not worry about the processing. It’s really just 3 ingredients and I’ll definitely buy again.”
