What is Quinoa & Chia Mixed Wheat Pops?

Quinoa & Chia Mixed Wheat Pops combines popped wheat with quinoa and chia seeds for a crisp, ready-to-eat cereal or snack. It has a light crunch, a mild toasted grain flavour and little pops of texture from the seeds.

Try it with milk or yoghurt at breakfast, sprinkle it over fruit or a smoothie bowl, or eat it by the handful between meals.
