Kelp is a nutritional powerhouse, and now thanks to the woman-owned Snacks from the Sea people have a new healthier alternative with crunchy, crispy, energizing Kelpie Chips. The chips provide all the health benefits found in sustainably harvested kelp, lightly fried with natural seasonings. Rich in minerals, vitamins, and antioxidant activity, Kelpie Chips have many potential uses in snacks and meals.

Snacks from the Sea Founder Jennifer Murphy grew up in Korea, where kelp is eaten for its numerous health benefits or on special holidays when kelp would be dried, cleaned, fried, and dusted with sugar. As a busy mom and executive, Murphy found herself feeling burnt out and her mother made her kelp chips as a remedy. Murphy launched Snacks from the Sea, a line of delicious, nutritious kelp-based products, to carry on the family tradition and offer people an energizing snack that would enhance their lives and help them feel their best, naturally.

“Kelp is one of the most nutritious foods for people and the planet,” said Snacks from the Sea’s Founder Jennifer Murphy. “Right now, people are looking for snacks that are made with whole foods that are rich in nutrition and don’t sacrifice flavor. Kelp has a crunchy texture and a hint of umami that delights the palette.”

With the goal of bringing the nourishment of kelp, packaged in a convenient, snack-worthy form, to the masses, Murphy began a long R&D process to make the best, minimally processed kelp chips available. Kelpie Chips are made with real natural kelp leaves that are dusted with seasoning, not reconstituted or made from powder, and they don’t contain fillers like starch.

Kelpie Chips can be eaten on their own or paired with a variety of dips, including salsa, hummus, and tzatziki and can be purchased on Amazon.
