LOS ANGELES, Aug. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Just in time for summer blockbusters, road trips, beach parties and barbeques, Snack it Forward’s brand PeaTos® – one of the fastest growing salty snack brands in the nation – is proud to introduce its newest promotion. Under license from Paramount Consumer Products and timed to the theatrical release Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem this month, PeaTos is introducing special themed packages featuring the well-loved franchise characters, on six of its flavored snack offerings including its all-new Crunchy Fiery Lime Puffs, a bold mix of citrusy tang with spicy in a light-as-air offering, and Crunchy Cheese-less Puffs, a plant-based, “cheesy” snack packed with mouthwatering flavor. The promotional offerings are available for a limited time on Amazon, and at Sam’s Club and Walmart stores nationwide.
“PeaTos is beyond excited to partner with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, a franchise that is well-loved by kids and people of all ages,” said PeaTos founder and CEO Nick Desai. “This exciting collaboration is the perfect fit for our fast-growing brand. While adults love and appreciate PeaTos’ nutritional value, we know everyone will love the awesome crunchy taste of PeaTos just as much as they love these heroes on a half shell.”
In addition to the two new Puffs varieties, PeaTos’ six offerings featuring Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem include Crunchy Cheese-less Curls; Crunchy Onion Rings, a savory snack with just a hint of sweet; Crunchy Fiery Curls, where serious heat meets serious crunch; and Crunchy Pizza Rings, a fresh from the oven, crave-able mix of tomato and cheese flavors.
Since its introduction in 2019, PeaTos has experienced explosive growth and received widespread acclaim thanks to its innovative approach, one that offers flavor and fun with the benefit of better-for-you nutrition. In 2022, PeaTos became 100% plant-based in response to consumer demand and was recognized with a “Best of Expo West Award” by VegNews. PeaTos are offered in a choice of single-serve offerings, perfect for summer travel and lunch boxes, and in bulk and variety multipacks for festive gatherings and party occasions.
