We believe a healthy snack can be both good for you AND the planet. Our mission is to help consumers SNACK BETTER and DO BETTER by eating the whole fruit, maximizing nutritional value and minimizing food waste.
Small scraps of discarded food add up to big problems.
Number of pounds (lbs) calculated is determined by percentage of actual fruit rind in each bag. Calculations do not factor in strawberry or pineapple since those dried fruits do not include any rind.
Americans waste nearly 40 million tons of food each year, an estimated 1/3 of all food produced.•
Fruits and vegetables account for the largest portion,representing ~30-40% of all wasted food in the United States.**Imagine walking out of the grocery store with five bags of produce and leaving two in the parking lot! 🤷 🛒

The majority of this waste is totally unnecessary!
At RIND, we’re all about making every bite count. We upcycle perfectly good fruit that would otherwise go to waste, turning it into delicious, eco-friendly snacks. But what does upcycled mean? We rescue fruit that doesn’t make it to the fresh market—often overlooked due to appearance. Through our drying process, we transform this fruit, including the nutrient-rich rind, into craveable snacks that retain vital nutrients, have a longer shelf life, and significantly reduce waste.
Snack better. Do better.
RIND Snacks are zero waste.
We also believe that our highly nutritious snacks can be part of the solution in fighting childhood hunger andnutrition insecurity.
