Gimme Seaweed Korean BBQ Roasted Seaweed Snacks

With this new flavor,
Gimme aims to pay homage to South Korea, the birthplace of the brand's Founder, Annie Chun, and the country where they grow their organic seaweed. Gimme's Korean BBQ roasted seaweed snacks bring a perfect balance of salty, sweet, and spicy flavors-think of the bold kick of a spicy miso soup in a crisp, savory bite. They take the traditional flavors of Korean BBQ - garlic, pepper, soy sauce, and miso – and marry them with gochujang for a kick of heat.

Spicy snacks have become increasingly popular in recent years, and this was evident to Gimme with the success of their Chili Lime flavor that launched in 2022. And as Korean-inspired flavors have come to the forefront, gochujang has become a go-to sauce for chefs to add a hint of spice to their dishes. While traditional Korean BBQ is actually not heavy on the gochujang flavor, Annie wanted to do things a little differently and created this recipe intentionally to have a unique, spicy flair.

"In the same way Korean BBQ has become a staple meal representing Korean culture in America, Gimme has made the Korean side dish of seaweed a beloved snack staple here," said Gimme Seaweed's Co-Founder, Annie Chun. "With this new flavor we are bringing the two concepts together to celebrate the
Korean culture through traditional foods, flavors, and ingredients."

Korean BBQ is the ninth flavor in Gimme's lineup of roasted seaweed snacks alongside, Sea Salt & Avocado Oil, Olive Oil, Sea Salt, Teriyaki, White Cheddar, Sesame, Wasabi, and Chili Lime.
