Skinny Bik

According to the latest consumer trends, more and more Australians are snacking throughout the day and there are no signs of it abating.

Unfortunately, the most popular snacks consumed by Australians are rich in calories and poor in nutrients, contributing over 30% of total energy intake! Given these trends, there is an urgent need for healthier snack options.

Australians love biscuits. About half the population consume them regularly. Nutritionists advise Australians to avoid them because they are mostly full of refined sugar and starch, bad fats and are too low in fibre and protein.

In the famous Mediterranean diet renowned for its health giving properties, wholesome biscuits and rusks made with olive oil, orange juice, eggs and wholegrains were often consumed daily, especially for breakfast. There is absolutely no reason why biscuits cannot be healthy and eaten daily.
