Partner Spotlight: Sweetpotato Awesome

Sometimes the best ideas are the simplest ones.

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

Founder Josh Kingdon had a pretty simple idea: what if you could take everything great about a sweet potato and turn it into the kind of snack you actually want to keep reaching for?

"Sweet potatoes are kind of like kale, but taste like a cupcake.”

The answer was Sweetpotato Awesome: organic sweet potatoes, refreshingly short ingredient lists, and a freeze-drying process that creates a seriously satisfying crunch. 

From Sweet Potato to Awesome

Sweetpotato Awesome handcrafts its snacks at a dedicated production facility in Las Vegas, starting with certified organic sweet potatoes. They're lightly baked and then freeze-dried, removing moisture and transforming the sweet potatoes into surprisingly crisp slices bits, and fries. And despite the name, the fries aren't actually fried.

The ingredient lists are intentionally simple. Depending on the variety, you'll find combinations of organic sweet potatoes, organic virgin coconut oil, sea salt and organic seasonings like dill, garlic and cinnamon.

"Junk food-esque crunch without any of the junk.”

Some are especially minimal. Plain Fries contain just organic sweet potatoes and organic virgin coconut oil, while Sea Salt Slices add only sea salt.

A Snack That Wears Many Hats 

We love a snack that can do more than snack, and this is where Sweetpotato Awesome gets especially fun.

Grab the smaller pieces straight from the bag when you need something crunchy. Dip the fries into ranch or your favorite sauce. Add them to a snack board. Use them anywhere you might normally reach for a cracker. The larger slices can even stand in for toast, ready for whatever savory (or sweet) topping sounds good.

That versatility can be especially helpful when you're eating around a specialized diet and some of your usual crunchy go-tos are off the table.

Sweetpotato Awesome offers several flavors and formats, including Sea Salt, Dill & Garlic, Cinnamon, Plain and Spring Salt, with both slices and fry-style options.

For those following AIP, the brand's AIP Sampler includes Cinnamon, Dill & Garlic Fries, Sea Salt and Spring Salt Fries, all identified by Sweetpotato Awesome as AIP-friendly. Products in the sampler are also certified organic by CCOF and Certified Seed Oil Free by the Seed Oil Free Alliance.

Why We Love Sweetpotato Awesome

One bite and we were hooked. The crunch is seriously satisfying. The flavor lets the sweet potato shine. And that naturally vibrant orange looks every bit as good as it tastes.

Then there's everything else we look for when deciding what belongs on Fully Healthy's shelves: refreshingly simple ingredient lists, options that work for a variety of specialized diets, and enough versatility to become more than a one-and-done pantry purchase.

But those things only matter if the food tastes good. And Sweetpotato Awesome tastes really, really good.

That's ultimately why we love carrying it. Eating around dietary needs already comes with enough compromises. Your snacks shouldn't have to feel like one of them.
