Almost one year ago, Lauren Pon teased the coming of her all-new functional food company, Pon Pon Snacks, and it doesn’t make your traditional protein bar, cookie, chips, or even a creamy protein shake. The signature product of the newcomer is Protein Biscuit Sticks, or basically a protein version of the iconic Japanese treat, Pocky, and after several months of development and preparation, the intriguing and undoubtedly tasty innovation is about to arrive.
Pon Pon Snacks Protein Biscuit Sticks come stacked with 10g of protein in an entire box of about 12 pieces. The brand designed the product to feel closer to your typical biscuit stick so that the extra protein and better-for-you macros feel more seamless and easy. The carbohydrates and fat are on the high side at 29 to 31g of the former and 19 to 20g of the latter, just 5 to 6g of sugar, and a sizeable calorie count of 300, which is still better than Pocky.
The world of functional food is a never-ending book of creative formats, and Pon Pon Snacks is a true reflection of that. While it isn’t a supremely protein-packed food and more in the area of a better-for-you, protein alternative, it does the job of giving you extra protein with the delicious taste and texture of a biscuit stick. You can pre-order the Pon Pon innovation from ponponsnacks.com in your choice of Strawberry Milk and Matcha Latte flavors for as low as $3.73 a box, and shipping will take place in a little more than a month in early July.
