BUNKY Launches Protein Popcorn
PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Davis Freeman for BUNKY
LOS ANGELES, CA (2025) — BUNKY, a new premium protein popcorn brand, has officially launched for the wellness-minded consumer. Combining bold flavor with clean functionality, BUNKY delivers 10 grams of complete protein per bag, crafted without seed oils or artificial additives.
The brand debuts with two crave-worthy flavors: Aged White Cheddar, a sharp and savory classic, and Sriracha Lime, a bold, zesty blend inspired by global flavors. Designed as a light, satisfying alternative to dense protein bars or chalky shakes, BUNKY fills the gap in the functional snack category by offering a guilt-free, protein-packed option that still feels indulgent.
“Popcorn was always my go-to snack, but I wanted something better — something that fueled my active lifestyle without compromise,” said Davis Freeman, Founder of BUNKY Foods LLC. “Protein bars felt heavy, shakes weren’t exciting, and most ‘healthy’ options left me unsatisfied. That’s when I realized popcorn could be reimagined into the perfect functional snack.”
BUNKY caters to today’s health-conscious consumer — from busy professionals and fitness enthusiasts to flavor seekers looking for cleaner, better-for-you options. With its playful brand ethos, “Snack Vividly. Live Fully.”, BUNKY represents more than just food; it’s a lifestyle rooted in balance, wellness, and joy.
Retail-ready with strong branding, non-GMO ingredients, and a focus on innovation, BUNKY is prepared to stand out on shelves and in pantries alike. In addition to its initial launch, the company has plans to expand into new flavors and retail partnerships throughout Southern California before scaling nationally.
“BUNKY isn’t about compromise — it’s about creating snacks that are both functional and fun,” Freeman added. “We want to change the way people think about healthy snacking.”
BUNKY is now available direct-to-consumer at munchbunky.com
and will be rolling out at select retailers in 2025.
