A Piece of Their Story:
The Pirate Brands story began in 1987 in Sea Cliff, NY with our founder, Robert. Robert, a snack industry renegade and father of two, scoured the high-seas for a tasty treasure that would inspire people to live a little healthier and have fun while doing it. That's when Robert discovered the cheesy rice and corn puffs we know today as, Pirate's Booty.
Here are the flavors that I received:
Aged White Cheddar, Barbeque, Crunchy Corn Sticks, New York Pizza, Real Wisconsin Cheddar, Sea Salt & Vinegar, Sour Cream & Onion, and even Veggie!
And here are a few of the Nutritional Facts. (These Nutritional facts are not the same as the Crunchy Corn Sticks or Real Wisconsin Cheddar).
»All natural
»Kosher
»Baked
»Trans fat and gluten free.
»Cholesterol free
»Each bag contains 130 calories or less!
»50% Less fat than potato chips!
I'm tellin' ya, I had hoped that these snacks would atleast last through the week, but they didn't. They lasted a few hours. My family and I ate them in no time at all. In our defense, there were six of us! And out of all of the flavors, we didn't come across one that we didn't like.
Personally, I loved the crunch. They weren't too hard nor too soft. They crunched the perfect crunch!
Not only was the crunch good, but the taste was wonderful as well. Even the Sea Salt & Vinegar. I don't usually eat Salt & Vinegar chips, I'm not big on the overwhelming smell (or taste). But I actually enjoyed this Sea Salt & Vinegar flavored snack! The smell, nor taste, was over-powering.

Pirate’s Booty is made from corn and rice meal that is extruded and results in a puff of rice and corn. In some industry circles, the puffs are known as hull-less popcorn.

I learned that Pirate Brands has eliminated fryers and trans fats from all of their products and keep the ingredients simple. Pirate Brands only additives are just good fun.
