Welcome back dear snaxer, what a fucking week amirite? Red as far as the eye can see, but fear not friends, we will glady accept your crumbs of bitcoin in exchange for safe passage into the snaxverse, in our virtual reality simulator, one only worries about “the dip” if it’s Sunny’s original tahini sauce, or inside a box of Friday. Besides, in the grand scheme of things, none of this really matters right? Whether you believe time is linear, circular, or if you share in my belief that it’s a squircle, because more things should be squircles, life —as it always has—will go on. So come along with us, join us inside the simulation, let us peek into a more hopeful future as we cry out “Let them ETH snax!”

Let’s chat, join 2,000 snaxpals in our Discord!

SUMMER SNAX

Our first ever summer guide is here, grab your disco-tini and let’s go shopping! Please do let me know what your favorite discovery is.

Spoonful of News 🥄

• Mars x Perfect Day launch an “animal free” chocolate bar but who gives a shit considering Mars is still being accused of using child/slave labor to produce their chocolates. Reminder that just because it’s “animal free” doesn’t equate to “cruelty free”

• Magic Spoon snagged $85 M and it caused quite the uproar from “nay sayers” —here’s my take:

  • MS has already moved beyond the bowl into snack territory and it’s looking like they are gonna pull a Kellogg’s

  • Traditional grocer shelves are tough business, not to mention anticompetitive lmao, gotta pay to play and you better have deep pockets.

• Pepsi, after what was probably a MAJOR FAIL into mocktails last year, the brand was fucking hideous, is now using Bubly to tap into the NA movement.

• To no surprise, specially if you’ve read our State of Big Food, Nestle has sold Chameleon Coffee as it continues to overhaul its portfolio. Reminder that divestures can also come as a blessing, see this.
