B-SIDES Launches Upcycled Crunch Puffs on Amazon
PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Rachel Van Dolsen for B-SIDES
NEW YORK, NY (April 1, 2025) – B-SIDES, a snack company focused on reducing food waste through upcycled ingredients, has launched its flagship Crunch Puffs on Amazon. The move marks the brand’s first entry into nationwide e-commerce distribution, expanding access to its plant-based, allergen-friendly snacks.
Crunch Puffs are made using oats upcycled from oat milk production, a byproduct that is typically discarded at scale. Each 10-pack rescues approximately 1⁄2 lb of nutrition, saves 75 gallons of water, and avoids 2 lbs of CO2 emissions, based on internal sourcing data. In addition to upcycled oats and corn, the puffs are formulated with pea protein and clean-label ingredients, and are free from the top 9 allergens, including gluten, soy, and dairy. Each bag delivers 10 grams of complete plant-based protein, with fewer calories and lower fat than the leading brands.
The Amazon launch reflects the company’s focus on accessible, scalable sustainability in the snack aisle. B-SIDES also uses 100% home-compostable pouches from noissue and plastic-free shipping materials, including water-activated tape and PCR corrugate boxes.
“As we grow, we’re committed to building a transparent, sustainable supply chain that meets both the needs of modern consumers and the planet,” said Yousuf Ahmed, B-SIDES Founder & CEO.
