Once you’ve popped a crispy, crunch, chewy kale chip in your mouth..you will be hooked. A warning and a promise!
I was at the Mind Body & Spirit Festival 2013 in London in June. We interview Dominik Schnell from inSpiral Foods A mainly raw food company with a great little cafe/lounge bar in Camden Town and an online shop. Selling all their raw and vegan products. They were the first to bring kale chips to the market in the UK. A little behind our American cousins, who’ve been crunching on raw kale chips for years, but better late than never! More and more companies are getting in on it now. Dominik is a bit of a raw rock god, in my eyes.. I’m in awe of anyone with the gumption to seize, and create the growing vegan market.
Kale chips are certainly not cheap. But, they are the most tasty savoury, crispy, healthy snack you can buy. Inspiral have now launched their bio degradable, fully compositble snack bag (world first eco pack..see below for the science). 30g only £2.19, much more accessible cost wise. They come in savoury and sweet options. I confess I go for the savoury nibble every time.
Dominik is a fascinating visionary. I hope you enjoy the interview.
Buy the new snack bags online, and at their cafe. They are sold in most whole food stores in the UK and selected places in Europe. I nearly peed with excitement when I saw them in the Vegan Store on my recent trip to Berlin.
Loving the kale!
Love kale chips, I always get the savory flavors (from a US company). I don’t care for the sweet one either. It is pricey but at least it’s good for you.
Cool packaging too.
I hope you are well in Brighton, how was the city and the weather there? I would love to visit Brighton one day - do you know Jojo from Brighton, too?
Great interview, it’s great to know that the UK is introducing raw kale chips! I am a bit picky on kale chips and they are certainly expensive. The best ones I had was Brad’s Raw Kale chips in the U.S. The inSpiral packaging looked cute and minimalistic.
Are they also available in Paris? I will be there in December and January!
Have a great weekend xxx

Pricey, but worth it. My dehydrator is in storage, if it wasn’t i’d be creating a kale mountain right now!

Hey Veganmian (Rika),
Brighton is cool (in both senses of the word, right now). You must come visit! Are you still in BA? No, I don’t know JoJo. I’d love to meet her. I should make it happen!
Yes, Brad’s are good. Have you tried Just Pure Foods zucchini chips? so good.
Paris next for you! wow! Exciting. xx
