The only non-GMO Project Verified exception is the Crunchsters® Tangy Balsamic flavor.

When beans are sprouted, the protein content of the bean increases. Crunchsters® have REAL plant-based protein in them, increased by spouting the mung beans, not a chemical derivative, such as a protein isolate. In one serving, you will find at least 6g of protein. You also get prebiotic fiber, the good kind that feeds your lower gut. PLUS, a treasure chest of minerals, such as potassium, magnesium, folate, manganese, and many more.

This allows you to satisfy cravings for empty calorie junk food with Crunchsters’ real nutrition that fills you up in a good way!

The white film you see is most likely something called chocolate “bloom”. Blooming is caused by separation of fats. While it’s safe to eat and still good for baking, we understand that it’s not ideal for snacking. Please contact us using the General Customer Service form below for further help.

We understand that you might have noticed that our Mint and Caramel 2-Cups (or individually wrapped Chocolate Sun Cups) appear less filled, looking like they are half-filled. This is due to the launch of our new 15g cup size. The existing paper cups available from suppliers are too tall for our cups, which is why the new 15g cups might seem smaller in the same packaging. We are actively working on sourcing custom paper cups that better fit the 15g size to address this appearance issue. Please be assured that the quality and taste of our products continue to meet the high standards that Free2b Foods is known for.

No, we do not use chocolate that has sugar that is processed or filtered with bone char. We only use sugar that is vegan, aligned to our commitment to fully vegan products.

Our brown sugar does not contain any animal derived ingredients or by-products of animal slaughter. The refining process of the sugar that we source, including our brown sugar, is also free from natural charcoal. This makes our brown sugar vegan, aligning with our commitment to produce fully vegan products.

Free2b Foods chocolate is sourced from vendors with ethical sourcing guidelines in place. A portion of our chocolate is sourced through the Cocoa Horizons program, https://www.cocoahorizons.org/, an impact driven program focused on cocoa farmer prosperity and helping build self-sustaining farming communities that protect nature and children. The other portion of our chocolate is sourced through a code of conduct aligned with the OECD’s Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Business, which includes no tolerance for illegal labor, such as human trafficking, slavery, and the worst forms of child labor.

While our top priority is to source safe, top 12 allergen free chocolate, which requires unique production runs, we also prioritize sourcing chocolate that does not contribute to the negative social or environmental impacts of cocoa growing.

Free2b packaging is not compostable, but several components are recyclable. Here’s a breakdown:

Free2b 1 Cup, 2 Cup, and Seasonal Pouch Packaging:These are made from plastic film, specifically type 5 (PP). They can be recycled where plastic film recycling is accepted, often through drop-off bins at local grocery stores.

Free2b Minis Pouches:These pouches contain a metallic layer and are considered multilayer packaging. Due to their complex structure, they require specialized recycling programs and cannot be recycled through regular recycling plants.

Crunchsters Packaging:The packaging for Crunchsters uses a PET barrier combined with PE, which makes it non-recyclable in regular facilities. It falls under type 7 and also requires specialized recycling programs.

Cardboard Boxes:The cardboard boxes used for all Free2b products are fully recyclable and made with SFI certified, partially recycled materials.

You can purchase Free2b and Crunchsters products with SNAP/EBT benefits at any retailer or grocery store that accepts these benefits as part of their eligible food items. To find a store near you that accepts SNAP/EBT, you can use the SNAP Retailer Locator. However, please note that our website does not accept SNAP/EBT benefits because we do not meet the eligibility requirements for EBT/SNAP retailers. Additionally, Free2b and Crunchsters products on Amazon cannot be bought with SNAP/EBT when sold directly by Free2b Foods. This is because we are not an EBT/SNAP eligible retailer on Amazon. Some products sold by other companies on Amazon can be purchased with SNAP/EBT because Amazon itself is a SNAP/EBT eligible retailer. If you cannot find our products at a SNAP/EBT retailer near you, consider requesting that your local store carry them.
