Our selection criteria

As an enthusiastic (endurance) athlete and with a passion for healthy nutrition, Kevin noticed, in 2017, that a lot of so-called “healthier” snacks still contained too many sugars, fats or other additives. JustBite was born from that frustration.

Snacks selected by JustBite vs. traditional snacks

We select our snacks according to the highest standards, using our own model. That’s how we’re working hard to reduce the amounts of salt, added sugars and saturated fats in our snacks.

Our process...

JustBite goes farther than anyone else! Together with a nutritional expert, we developed a method for screening snacks individually.

Step 1

Screening of the market

We screen snack brands that claim to be healthy

By the way: do you have a product that you think JustBite should select? Get in touch, we’d love to put you under a microscope!

Step 2

Searching for pure ingredients

We look for pure, 100% natural ingredients..

That’s why we scrutinise every single ingredient and see if it’s on our list of “bad ingredients”. At JustBite, you won’t find any trans-fats, chemical additives such as flavouring, colouring or thickening agents, etc. We also refuse snacks with dairy and non-sustainable palm oil.

Healthy snacks: baked potato- and soy-based crisps

Step 3

Balanced proportions

After the ingredient check, we look at the ratio between carbs, proteins, fats and fibre. That’s where our nutritional knowledge plays a big role!

An example: A snack that’s high in carbs can sometimes pass our test if it also contains sufficient fibre, which causes it to release its energy slower.

Of course, the selection process is a lot more complicated than that. We promise you one thing, though: we’ll go the extra mile to select healthy snacks for you.

Step 4

The equally important taste test!

Our snacks are also simply delicious! Once per month, our snack review panel reviews every snack that passed our tests. Does it taste good? Then it gets extra points.

The result: JustBite approved (or not)

Pssht. Clearly, reality is a lot more complex than this. Do you have any questions? Would you like to know more? Get in touch!

+ 250 approved snacks & counting...

More than 250 selected snacks of over 60 brands have received the JustBite seal of approval. That means that only a quarter of the more than one thousand snacks we’ve reviewed have passed our tests.

Sweet bars? Savoury crisps? Not crazy about cricket flour? Allergic to an ingredient? We have something for everyone!
