Introducing Popadelics Crunchy Mushroom Chips: shiitake mushrooms reimagined for the modern superfood snacker.
Mushroom lovers and doubters alike will now be able to experience shiitake mushrooms like they never have before. To produce its signature crunch, Popadelics Crunchy Mushroom Chips leverage a unique cooking method called vacuum frying, which allows foods to cook at much lower temperatures while absorbing less oil and retaining more of their color, nutrients, texture, and flavor. Popadelics are also vegan and a good source of protein and fiber.
While Popadelics do not contain any psilocybin or any other psychedelics or narcotics, purchases will support the Fun-Gal Snacks Foundation, a charitable organization from the creators of Popadelics that will support various causes centered on health and wellness. Most notably, the Fun-Gal Snacks Foundation will support the Johns Hopkins Center of Psychedelic & Consciousness Research and their exploration for innovative treatments for improved mental health.
Early taste testers have been raving about Popadelics:
"These are genuinely one of the most delicious snacks I've had in quite some time, in any category. And I eat a LOT of better-for-you snacks," said Vanessa D.
"I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but I was very pleasantly surprised. I love the crunch and the fact that [Popadelics] doesn't spare the flavor, which is wonderfully bold. The bag didn't last long!" said Ginny R.
"This flavor [Trippin' Truffle Parm] right here changed my life. These are so good, I bet you can't eat just one!" said Raqueta R.
"I had never heard of a mushroom based snack before, so I was definitely curious how they would taste. I was blown away. I love spicy food so the Twisted Thai Chili was a much-welcomed surprise blast of flavor and crunch in one bite. I am also partial to the Rad Rosemary and Salt for a classic crunch," said Demi D.
"At first, I didn't know what to think, and I didn't know how it would taste. But the kick of flavor sets this apart from any other snack out there! It's so innovative, so creative, and very tasty. I look at mushrooms so differently now!" said Corbin P.
"I never thought a [better-for-you] snack could be so delicious and full of flavor. I can't wait to share these with everyone I know. They really hit the spot!" said Rebecca E.
