Buffs is a new name in the functional food space, and while the type of product it makes is relatively familiar in a bag of light and crispy puffs, the approach it has taken makes it far more innovative than initially thought. The flagship Buffs creation is beef-based, or grass-fed beef-based to be exact, which has been rolled together with an impressively short list of other quality ingredients to create a light bite-sized snack that is packed with protein.
Buffs actually makes its functional innovation with only a few other components outside of grass-fed beef in egg whites, to further bump up the protein, avocado oil, onions, tapioca, seasoning, and salt. The formula really gives the product that savory beef flavor profile, at least that’s the case for the Original flavor. There is a second option for you to choose from in Cheesy, and that, of course, is made with cheddar and cheese seasoning.
Now for the most important part, the macros, and the team at Buffs has managed to keep it quite balanced across the board. In an entire bag of 18 crunchy puff pieces, you get 12g of protein, again, from grass-fed beef and egg whites, 10g of fat, 7g of carbohydrates with just a gram of that sugar, and 170 calories.
Buffs does a reasonable job on the nutrition profile, nowhere near as lean as a protein shake, but in the realm of a protein bar, not your standard competitor, more of the higher-calorie offerings. The alternative experience and approach is what sells this one, though, being powered by grass-fed beef and coming in savory options instead of dessert-style.
