Chia Pod

Chia Pod vanilla beanWe've seen Chia Seeds and Chia Oats. Chia has well and truly made its mark in the superfood sector. And now it's Chia Pods. These are the perfect energy boosting breakfast, because each little 'pod' contains one full serving of sun ripened Chia seeds (very high in protein, omega-3 and tons of other healthy stuff) mixed with fruit and coconut milk. Cold processing has been used to ensure the full nutrition, taste and color of the fruit is retained, and pure coconut milk gives Chia Pods a thick creamy texture. They may be small, but the flavour is rich and they fill you up nicely. I should certainly hope so at £2.39 for a 170g serving. Available in mango, strawberry, banana, vanilla and blueberry, as well as lemon & date (intriguing....), coffee bean (in case your morning coffee isn't quite enough) and dark cacao (effectively chocolate), so there's enough flavours to have a different one for breakfast each day of the week! However, only mango and vanilla are stocked in Waitrose and Tesco, and they're wayyy too pricey for me to have regularly.
