Lifestyle food and beverage innovator debuts allergy-friendly protein bars in lemon blueberry and mint chip
Buddha Brands™, maker of better-for-you, plant-powered food and beverages, unveiled two on-trend flavors of its Hungry Buddha® Keto Bars line: Lemon Blueberry and Mint Chip. Focused on creating a brand that reflects a conscious effort to live better, eat better and do better, the co-founders are building on the successful launch of Hungry Buddha® Keto Bars to offer consumers variety – including its first fruit-flavored bar.

The plant-based food sector is on an upward trajectory. Plant-based food retail sales grew 27% to reach a value of $7 billion in 2020, according to SPINS data released by the Good Food Institute and the Plant Based Foods Association (PBFA). Additionally, there are approximately 32 million Americans that suffer from food allergies, according to Food Allergy Research and Education. Hungry Buddha® Keto Bars satisfy both needs as they are free from animal products, peanuts, soy, dairy, and gluten, making them an allergy-friendly snack the whole family will enjoy.
