The munchies happen to us all. An 'itchy mouth', in colloquial Mandarin, which sounds a lot more unpleasant when translated but languages, ay? Good thing this bad habit can now be reframed as a high-performance strategy. It's a cool way of saying you can fulfill your cravings and your macros simultaneously.
The lesser-known tidbit is not a new concept, but this one's locally founded. Nibble Network packed 11 to 13g of protein in each serving of flagship product Soy Crunches. They've been used by WNBF (World Natural Bodybuilding Federation) athletes, as well as the non-competitive (but not any lesser!) athletes at F45, Mobilus and Division Athletics.
There are more pluses here. As a purely plant-based food, it's 100 percent vegan-friendly. Great for sharing with your white friends that carry the sins of greedy corporations upon their shoulders. Flavours, however, currently come in Asian. Apart from Original, there's Tom Yum and Wasabi.
Fitness community or not, the test of a good snack is in its addictive pull. Which is achieved by—no scientific backing here—that sufficiently crisp texture that's neither overly dry from dehydrating the ingredient, nor too dense in its bite. That's right, you've got snacking experts with decades of experience on desk here. Clearly, so do the folks at Nibble Network, as the product's crunch seems natural, while flavouring is not overdone.
For gym bros and couch surfers alike, this truly is an honest alternative worth exploring.
