Flavors include Buffalo, Himalayan Pink Salt,
Nashville Hot and Sea Salt Vinegar. There's also
Chicken + Waffles, with the chips crisped in
coconut oil then seasoned with a buttery maple
syrup and a touch of cinnamon.
" I wanted to create flavors that had never
been seen before in the snack aisles, " said
Jason Wright, founder.
The chips are gluten and grain free, low
carbohydrate and keto friendly. The un-potato
chips deliver 15 grams of protein and no more
than 1 gram of sugar per serving.
Flock, San Francisco, uses chicken skins
to make its namesake chips. Flock Chicken
Chips are made from 100% real chicken skins,
seasoning blends and oil. They are made in
small batches fried in woks.
The company chose to make the chips
from chicken skins - an upcycled ingredient
from boneless, skinless chicken processing
- because they provide a combination of
crispiness and taste while also delivering
12 grams of protein, zero sugar, and 0 to 1
grams of carbohydrates, depending on flavor.
Varieties are Barbecue, Original, Sea Salt
Vinegar and Hattie B's Hot Nashville. The latter
is a co-branding relationship with the Hot
Hattie B's Chicken chain.
A serving also contains 14 grams of fat,
which the company describes as " good fat. "
It is mostly the soybean oil the skins are fried
in, which is believed to be associated with
lowering high cholesterol levels and reducing
blood pressure.
" Chicken skins are a nutrient dense
ingredient, which have been historically
overlooked and left for refuse, " according
to the company. " By utilizing this resource,
we're actively fighting against America's
food waste problem and paving the way
for future categories to rethink innovation
and sustainability. "
K2 Ventures, a Boston-based startup,
launched Brave Good Kind Tender Chicken
Bars earlier this year, after a successful launch
of chicken bites in 2021.

from Brave Good Kind
contain 65% less fat
than standard potato
chips and 30% to 40%

" Brave Good Kind was born to re-imagine
healthy snacking, focusing on the meat snacks
category with an offering that is tender, all-natural
and made with chicken, " said Prabal Chaudhri,
president and founder. " We know consumers want
a jerky that is easy to eat and are looking for a
tenderly delicious snack without un-sustained
sugary spikes of energy from guilt-inducing
ingredients. We also addressed the desire for a
more sustainable protein source. The result is a
snack that fulfills both desire and conscience. "
Bites and bars are made with antibiotic-free
chicken. Varieties include Hot Honey, Original
and Teriyaki. One 0.8-oz bar contains 8 grams
of protein, 4 to 5 grams of carbohydrates and
less than 6 grams of sugar.
