Grizzly Snacks Beef Jerky is low in fat, rich in protein, and full of flavour; it is ideal for anyone looking for a healthy, delicious snack.

Papa Original – refreshing drink to neutralise garlic smell
Papa Original is a refreshing drink which became known in the Vox start-up show “Die Höhle der Löwen” (similar to “Dragon’s Den”), and is designed to get rid of garlic smell after eating kebab. A kebab at lunchtime and then straight to work? Or in the evening, and then move on to a club?
Papa Original makes it all possible. The manufacturer claims that 50 mg of the new “garlic killer” refreshment drink can neutralise garlic and onion odour within an hour. The secret of the “garlic killer” Papa Original is the chlorophyll – that is the green substance found in plants. The natural substance neutralises odours and also colours the beverage bright green. The normal digestion process of food containing onions and garlic involves the body’s own enzymes, which neutralise the odorants with the help of chlorophyll molecules.
PaPicante – the new savoury snack bar
PaPicante is the new savoury snack bar based on pea protein crisps, with international flavours (American Style, Asian Style, and Mediterranean Style). It is a delicious response to appetite on the go and when out and about. PaPicante is more than just another muesli bar.

Thanks to its innovative baseline ingredient pea protein crisps, it fits in well with current food trends and customer wishes, made from regional ‘superfood’, and serves a growing target group (“Quality & Mobile Eaters”), giving it a genuine USP. PaPicante is the perfect fit for a busy, active lifestyle.

Seedlip – the world’s first distilled non-alcoholic spirit, from the UK
Seedlip is the world’s first non-alcoholic spirit, answering the old question of “what to drink when you’re not drinking®”. In November 2015, Seedlip was launched at Selfridges department store in London, and was sold out straight away. Today the brand is sold in more than 10 international cities and served in 80 Michelin starred restaurants. It is also available at the world’s best cocktail bars. Seedlip is blended and bottled in the UK. The brand has developed its own specially tailored maceration process for each plant extract, with distilling in a copper vat and its own filtration process – the manufacturing process takes a total of 6 weeks. The spirits from Seedlip are zerocalorie and contain neither sugar nor sweeteners nor artificial aroma substances, making a Seedlip & Tonic a serious adult alternative to an alcoholic cocktail.
Skiwater – Austrian organic lemonade freshened with mountain spring water
Sport makes you thirsty. Skiwater was invented as a genuine isotonic thirst quencher to respond to that need in remote Alpine villages.

For a specially refreshing drink, Skiwater is vitalised by slight carbonation. www.skiwater.at
