Crunchsters

When Gina and Frank Lambert's kids were small, they struggled to keep the children away from commercially produced, nutritionally poor puffed and fried snacks in grocery stores. To satisfy those snacky urges, they started preparing their own snacks, using traditional medicinal herbs, spices, and recipes. Frank, a constant cook and prolific inventor, started playing around with the mung bean, a tiny green bean considered by Indian traditional cuisine to be detoxifying, easy to digest, and a great source of protein, fiber, and minerals. 

Surprise! The kids loved the crunchy mung bean snacks their dad was making, and even a small portion left them feeling satisfied. Junk food, begone! Gina and Frank realized that other children (and adults) could use an upgrade in the snack aisle, so they created Crunchsters to share their nutritionally dense, high protein snacks that are satisfying, crunchy (of course!) and good for you, too.
