What Makes a Great ChickSnack

- Texture: Crunchy / crispy is popular. Could be roasted, puffed, popped, baked etc.

- Health-positioning:
- High protein + fibre
- Gluten-free or at least low gluten (if possible)
- Low sugar, no artificial preservatives or colours
- Maybe baked or air-fried rather than deep-fried
- Convenience: Single-serve packs, resealable bags, portable → “quick snack on the go”.
