Partner Spotlight: Sweetpotato Awesome

Sometimes the best snack ideas are the simplest ones.

Sweetpotato Awesome takes an ingredient most of us already know and love, the sweet potato, and turns it into something unexpectedly crunchy, craveable, and genuinely fun to eat.

Founder Josh Kingdon's approach is refreshingly straightforward: start with organic sweet potatoes, keep the ingredient lists short, and use freeze-drying to create the kind of satisfying crunch you might expect from a chip or cracker, without relying on the usual deep-frying or long list of ingredients.

As Josh puts it, sweet potatoes are “kind of like kale, but taste like a cupcake.”

From Sweet Potato to Awesome

Sweetpotato Awesome handcrafts its snacks at a dedicated production facility in Las Vegas, starting with certified organic sweet potatoes. The sweet potatoes are lightly baked and then freeze-dried, a process that removes moisture and transforms them into surprisingly crisp slices, sticks, and fries.

And despite the word “fries,” they aren't actually fried.

The ingredient lists are intentionally simple. Depending on the flavor, you'll find combinations of organic sweet potatoes, organic virgin coconut oil, salt, and organic seasonings like dill, garlic, and cinnamon. The brand describes the result as a “junk food-esque crunch without any of the junk,” which pretty much captures the experience.

Some varieties are remarkably minimal. The Plain Fries contain just organic sweet potato and organic virgin coconut oil, while the Sea Salt Slices add only sea salt.

A Snack That Does More Than Snack

One of our favorite things about Sweetpotato Awesome is that the products don't have to stay in the snack category.

Eat the smaller pieces straight from the bag. Dip the fries into your favorite ranch or sauce. Use them anywhere you'd reach for a crunchy cracker. The larger Sea Salt Slices are even designed to work as a bread or toast alternative.

That versatility is particularly helpful when the foods you normally reach for aren't an option.

Sweetpotato Awesome currently makes several flavors and formats, including Sea Salt, Dill & Garlic, Cinnamon, Plain, and Spring Salt, with both slices and fry-style options. Its AIP sampler includes Cinnamon, Dill & Garlic Fries, Sea Salt, and Spring Salt Fries, all identified by the brand as AIP-friendly. The products in that sampler are also certified organic by CCOF and Certified Seed Oil Free by the Seed Oil Free Alliance.

Why You'll Find Sweetpotato Awesome at Fully Healthy

The ingredient lists are easy to understand. Several varieties work for AIP and other specialized diets. And most importantly, these aren't snacks that feel like a consolation prize for something you can't eat. They're crunchy, versatile, and awesome.
