Pokimane Ditches Junk Food And Launches Healthy Snack Brand

Life has a funny, often scary, way of inspiring us to change our daily habits. That’s how founders Darcey Macken, a 15-year veteran in the Consumer Packaged Goods industry, and Imane Anys, popularly known as Pokimane, came up with the idea for Myna Snacks.

During the pandemic, Pokimane began having health issues from excessive online streaming and eating junk food. She has over 6 million subscribers on Twitch, which led to hours of streaming while consuming lots of unhealthy snacks.

Myna Snacks was inspired by a shared desire to create a snack that was just as delicious as popular brands yet was made with real ingredients that are sustainably sourced, gluten-free, and non-GMO. The company’s first offering is “Midnight Mini Cookies” and is a deep chocolate cookie with creamy white chips and sea salt. They’re perfectly bite-sized for maximum munchie satisfaction.

Myna Snacks are currently available in a 4-pack, 8-pack, and 12-pack options on their website — that breaks down to an affordable $7 per bag. You have the option of making a one-time purchase or joining Myna’s Snack Club for a 10% discount.
