Life was getting busier and messier with our growing family, and I was struggling to find snacks that were nutritious, tasty, and great for on-the-go. I would scan the grocery store aisles for my snack-loving family, and wonder why every packaged snack seemed to be either a sugar bomb, full of ultra-processed mystery ingredients, or a cardboard-tasting health food.

So I took matters (and measuring cups) into my own hands. Beans had already become a nutrition powerhouse in my older son’s diet, helping to fill some of the gaps from the foods he wasn't eating. So I asked: could I turn that same goodness into a convenient snack my whole family would actually crave?

That’s how the Mini Waffle Crisp was born - baked with organic whole foods, nothing artificial, shelf-stable yet without preservatives and, yes, nutrient-dense beans as the main ingredient. Snacks our kids begged for, snacks that I actually felt good about saying “yes” to and snacks that my husband and I loved munching on as well!

When we realized this could help so many others facing similar snack time struggles, my husband Sean jumped in. Together, with our kids as the most honest of critics, we built Pod Squad Snacks - a snack made from all the good of the Pod, for the good of your Squad.

Our mission is simple: To make snack time easier, happier, and healthier for everyone.

We're so grateful to be able to share these little bites of goodness with you - thank you for being part of our Pod Squad family. Let's snack better, together!
