According to a lawsuit settlement involving a major brand, no "reasonable person" would believe that veggie sticks are a health food. While cleverly marketed to seem wholesome, the truth is that most commercial veggie sticks are highly processed snacks, which begs the question: are veggie sticks really healthy?

According to a study cited by the Environmental Working Group (EWG), some veggie puffs have been classified as unhealthy ultra-processed food. This raises a critical question for health-conscious consumers: are veggie puffs actually healthy, or is their 'vegetable' label a marketing smokescreen?

Despite clever marketing, veggie straws are a highly processed snack, often containing less fiber and more sodium than traditional potato chips. This means relying on them for your daily vegetable intake is a mistake, and many truly healthier alternatives exist for satisfying your crunchy cravings.
