FAQS
What are ‘Nordic Crisps’?
Nordic Crisps are delicious bite-sized organic toasted crispbread crackers, inspired by the traditional longer sheets of Danish knækbrød (spelled knekkebrød in Norway, and knäckebröd in Sweden). As part of a healthy lifestyle, they are a great with breakfast, lunch, or as a snack - with or without toppings. Nordic Crisps come in three flavors: Multi-Seed + Oregano, Fennel + Onion, and the traditional Rye + Sea Salt.
Where did crispbread crackers originate?
Originally a staple food of Scandinavian countries, most variations were made with rye flour and were characterized as shelf-stable for long periods. Even today, they have remained a significant part of the Scandinavian diet, and they can be found in the pantry of most households.
Are Hungry Bird Eats products gluten-free?
Our Multi-Seed + Oregano and Fennel + Onion Nordic Crisp product lines are made with naturally gluten-free ingredients in our own nut-free facility. However, since we currently also make our traditional Rye + Sea Salt Nordic Crisps (using rye flour) in the same kitchen, we cannot currently certify that all products will be completely gluten-free for those with celiac and gluten-intolerance concerns. Note that we take steps to avoid gluten cross-contamination in the kitchen by thoroughly and carefully cleaning all our equipment before and after each use and physically distancing certain equipment to avoid gluten exposure where practical.
Are Hungry Bird Eats products vegan?
Yes! We do not use any animal products on our line of Nordic Crisps, and all of our ingredients are organic, which means that our products are GMO-free.
Are Hungry Bird Eats products allergy friendly?
The Nordic Crisp product lines are made without any of the following major allergens: egg, dairy, soy, peanuts, tree nuts or shellfish, however we do use sesame seeds in our products and our rye crisps contains gluten. We take great care to avoid contamination in our facility.
Are Hungry Bird Eats products kosher?
As a vegan product line, our Nordic Crisps do not include meat, dairy, or fish/eggs (pereve). Further since our kitchen space and equipment are dedicated to production of Nordic Crisp products, we do not store or expose our equipment to these products. Note that currently we have not obtained a kosher certification from a third party agency, but may seek to do so in the future.
How do I keep my crisps fresh?
Store them in an airtight container or a bag in a location that is dark, cool, and dry. Do not refrigerate. This will create moist.
We do not use artificial preservatives in our products, so our crisps are best consumed as soon as possible to experience the freshest taste. Over long periods of time the natural oils from the seeds and the olive oil may start to turn rancid, so Nordic Crisps are the very best when they are fresh baked!
Is the packaging recyclable?
Our 5 oz boxes are made of recyclable material and are manufactured locally by a company who uses solar panels. The company also makes an effort of recycling their paper and ink. The carbon footprint is low as the packaging company is located only 20 min away from our facility.
Why do you plant a tree?
Trees are key pillars of the world for both humans and the environment. They benefit us by purifying water, air and creating better social conditions. They benefit the environment by providing homes for various forms of life, cooling our climate and improving our soil. We also happen to be plant lovers.
