PeaTos® is on a mission to make America’s favorite snacks more nutritious and free from artificial gunk. PeaTos is challenging the current monopoly in salty chips long enjoyed by Frito Lay with Brands like Cheetos®, Doritos® and Funyuns®. We use a blend of art and science to replicate the amazing taste and joy of traditional Junk Food, BUT by augmenting the traditional corn filler with nutrient dense peas and lentils and removing all the artificial gunk, PeaTos has found a way to create “Junk Food WITHOUT The Junk”. Sound too good to be true? Try them.
