NYC’s Popadelics® Crunchy Mushroom Chip takes whole shiitake mushrooms and gives them a special crunch using its unique vacuum frying cooking method, resulting in a superfood snack that has received multiple awards since launching just last year, including a Men’s Health Snack Award and StartupCPG’s Best Snack Award, and most recently the brand became an Expo West NEXTY finalist.
Popadelics are vegan, gluten-free, Non-GMO Project certified, and OU kosher certified, and come in three flavors: Trippin’ Truffle Parm (which the brand says contains “some of the tastiest vegan parm in the game”), Twisted Thai Chili, and Rad Rosemary + Salt.
Despite the psychedelic name and branding, the snacks do not contain THC, psilocybin, or CBD. But when you purchase a bag, you get to support research into the use of psychedelics in the treatment of mental health, and we tip our hats to that.
Embracing weirdness
Popadelics can be purchased on popadelics.com, Amazon, other online retailers, and in approximately 300 retail stores nationwide, including Urban Outfitters, Foxtrot Market, Lassens, and numerous independent natural food stores.
