Real Naturals Shiitake Mushroom Chips Garlic and Herbs are a flavour-led snack that combines the natural savoury character of shiitake mushrooms with a carefully balanced garlic and herb seasoning. Designed as an alternative to conventional snack chips, this product focuses on familiar ingredients and straightforward preparation. The result is a crisp, moreish snack that feels at home alongside everyday meals or as a simple savoury option between them.
Shiitake mushrooms form the foundation of these chips, supported by tapioca starch to achieve a light, crunchy texture. Rice bran oil is used during cooking for its neutral profile, allowing the seasoning to come through cleanly. The garlic and herbs blend brings warmth and aroma without overwhelming the base ingredients.

Additional Information
Real Naturals develops snacks that prioritise recognisable ingredients and clear flavour direction. In this variety, garlic and herbs are used to complement the natural umami of shiitake mushrooms rather than mask it. The seasoning blend is designed to feel familiar and versatile, making these chips easy to pair with a wide range of foods.
Extended Information
Shiitake mushrooms have long been valued in cooking for their deep, savoury taste and satisfying bite. When prepared as chips, they offer a different way to enjoy mushrooms, delivering crunch while retaining a subtle earthy quality. In everyday snacking, this garlic and herbs variety works well as an alternative to heavily seasoned options, offering flavour without excess.
The inclusion of herbs such as thyme and parsley adds aromatic notes, while garlic provides warmth and depth. Tapioca starch supports structure, helping the chips maintain a light, crisp texture. Rice bran oil is commonly selected for snack production due to its mild flavour and stability during cooking. Together, these elements create a snack that feels considered and well balanced.
