About
NOR is made by people who got tired of turning a snack bag over and reading a ten-line ingredient list.
The snack market splits in two: what tastes good, and what is good for you. Wanting both usually landed you with a protein bar that tasted of chalk, or a bag of nuts at a price nobody can defend.
We wanted to make something that solves both at once. The chickpea turned out to be the answer — it goes crisp when roasted properly, it carries seasoning well, and it brings protein and fibre without anything being added.
NOR is roasted in Norway, in small batches. Small batches mean we can adjust temperature and time to how the raw ingredient behaves that day, rather than running a fixed factory recipe regardless.
It is more work per bag. In return we get a chickpea that is crisp all the way through, not just on the outside.
NOR is a brand from Norvigs AS, a Norwegian food company that develops and produces snacks with short ingredient lists. We also run the Fjell Jerky brand.
We work to a documented HACCP plan, and all nutrition values are calculated from official Norwegian food composition data before being verified in a laboratory.
