What are Pummies?
These fruity little bites are fun, flavorful, and seriously snackable. When fruit gets juiced, the leftover “pomace” is usually tossed — even though it’s packed with fiber and nutrients. We give it new life by turning it into our first-of-its-kind fruit bites. Healthy snacking made simple

What makes these a healthy snack?: Whole fruit and simple ingredients deliver nutrient rich energy for on-the-go living.
What makes these upcycled?: When fruit gets juiced, the leftover goodness called “pomace” typically goes unused. But with a little love, we found this fiber rich pomace creates the perfect first-of-its-kind fruit bite!

COMPOSTABLE POUCH!
Are you as bummed out about plastic packaging as we are?
Obviously, food products need to be wrapped in some way. But we have found a great alternative solution. Our friends from Rootree have made us a pouch out of cassava, wood pulp, and beetroot. These pouches are PFAS-Free and will break down into water and carbon dioxide with the help of microorganisms.
So what does this mean for you?
All of the components, except the zipper, are BPI certified for home composting. The zipper is certified for industrial composting and can be cut and handled accordingly.
Keep in mind that the market is still playing “catch up” on compostable packaging, so we don’t recommend placing these in your curbside composting bin. The sorters may see it as plastic and reject it. But don’t despair. The more we pursue alternative package, the more prevalent and accepted it will be come.
Keep the faith and snack on!
