by | Jan 19, 2022 | News

Making waves in the snack aisle, Pacific Harvest is giving seaweed lovers and foodies an exciting, new and innovative way to enjoy their daily dose of nori.

With seaweed snacks becoming a go-to for many families, the new raw seaweed snack from Pacific Harvest is set to be a crowd-favourite as a much healthier option than existing seaweed snacks.

Packed full of natural nutrients, Pacific Harvest’s raw seaweed snack not only tastes delicious but provides a fantastic source of protein, vitamin B and iodine whilst also being low in processed fats.

Hayley Fraser-Mackenzie, Managing Director of Pacific Harvest says:“Seaweed should be a healthier-for-you option, but the current offerings are highly processed, with some seaweed snacks containing up to 50% fat! We knew we could do better and are excited to bring this new product to New Zealanders of all ages – with a 5-star health rating and only 4.5% fat, which is naturally occurring.”

Pacific Harvest’s new on-the-go sachets are organically farmed, packed with nutrients and are both GM and gluten-free.

“As more people turn to plant-based nutrition and seek foods that provide added nutrients, as well as new flavours and textures, we are seeing a rise in the consumption of seaweeds,” says Fraser-Mackenzie.

“The nutrient density in this raw snack is set to be a game-changer, and what makes it even better is the fact that our packaging is fully recyclable, making it a delicious and totally guilt-free snack!,” adds Fraser-Mackenzie.
