Big news: Jackson's Super Veggie Straws® are now at every Sam's Club
Here's the update we can't wait to share. Jackson's has officially expanded into every Sam's Club nationwide with a brand new Super Veggie Straws® variety pack, and it's built for exactly the kind of life you're living.

They're impossibly light, satisfyingly crunchy, and come in flavors your whole household will actually fight over. Whether it's Sea Salt for the purists, Cheddar for the cheese lovers, or Ranch for the dip-obsessed, having all three in single-serve bags means everyone gets their favorite without the debate.
What to look for when snacking smart at Sam's Club
Bulk shopping can be a beautiful thing, but it also means committing to a big box or bag. So how do you make sure it's one you'll actually love? Here are a few things we always keep in mind.
Read the ingredient list, not just the front of the bag
Packaging can say a lot of things, but the ingredient list tells the real story. We're big believers in keeping things simple: real food ingredients, avocado oil, and seasoning. That's it. If you can picture the ingredients as actual food, you're usually in good shape.
Look for oils that make sense to you
Cooking oil matters more than people realize, and it's worth knowing what you're looking at on a label. Curious about how different oils stack up? Our guide on identifying seed oils in everyday foods breaks it down in plain language, so you can shop with a little more confidence next time you're comparing bags.
At Jackson's, every single chip and straw is cooked exclusively in avocado oil. It's been that way since the very beginning, when the Reamer family started making snacks for their son Jackson in their home kitchen. That commitment carried all the way through Shark Tank to a dedicated, world-class facility built entirely around avocado oil.
Check for dietary needs upfront
Whether you're shopping for a household with allergies, a gluten-free eater, or someone who's vegan, a quick label scan saves a lot of guesswork. Jackson's snacks are gluten-free, vegan, kosher, Non-GMO, and made in a dedicated Top 9 Allergen Free facility in Muskego, Wisconsin, so you can stock the pantry without a second thought.
More snacks worth grabbing on your next run
Sam's Club is genuinely full of great options once you know what you're looking for. Here are a few categories worth exploring alongside your Jackson's haul.
Crunchy chips for lunch and movie night
If you love a good kettle-cooked crunch, Jackson's Sea Salt Sweet Potato Chips are a longtime favorite for a reason. Made with real sweet potatoes, avocado oil, and sea salt, they deliver that satisfying snap people crave. As registered dietitian Julianka Bell put it in Business Insider, "My husband and I love crunchy and savory snacks. Jackson's chips are simple and made with lightly salted sweet potatoes with avocado oil." Jackson's chips have also been featured in Bon Appétit's guide to the best healthy snacks, called an editor-approved treat.
Dippable crackers for your snack board
A good cracker is only as good as what you can pile on top of it. Look for sturdy, multi-grain options built for hummus, guacamole, or a slice of sharp cheddar. The Crunchmaster 5 Seed Multi-Grain Cracker is a fantastic choice here. These oven-baked, seed-based crackers bring a nutty, savory flavor from a blend of sesame, amaranth, flax, chia, and quinoa seeds. Cooked with olive oil, they are packed with ALA Omega-3s and have a satisfying texture that holds up to even the heartiest of dips.
Protein bars and bites for busy days
For those days when you need something more substantial, bars made with simple, recognizable ingredients like nuts, dates, and honey are a great way to keep your energy up between meetings or errands. The Kize Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bar is a standout example, combining a creamy peanut butter base with egg white protein, honey, dates, and dairy-free chocolate chips for a nourishing snack that tastes like a decadent treat.
Another excellent option is the LÄRABAR Chocolate Coconut Macaroon Trail Mix Bar. It delivers a wonderful mix of textures, combining the crunch of almonds and pecans with the chewiness of coconut and the smooth melt of Fair Trade Certified semisweet chocolate chips—a perfect boost of energy and flavor on the go.
Nuts for mindful snacking
Sometimes the simplest snack is the best one. A handful of pistachios or almonds gives you something to slow down with, plus a bit of protein and healthy fat to keep you satisfied. Wonderful Pistachios (the salted variety) are a classic choice here. They are a powerhouse of plant-based nutrition made with just pistachios and salt, and the act of cracking them open is a great way to snack more mindfully. Grab a handful for a smart, salty, and naturally seed-oil-free snack.
Sweet treats with simple ingredients
If you're looking for a little sweetness that doesn't rely on processed seed oils, there are some great options on the shelves. Ava Organics Coconut Crispy Rollers are a unique, light, and airy snack baked with organic coconut milk, tapioca flour, and a hint of coconut sugar. They are USDA Organic, Paleo, and Gluten-Free, making them perfect for munching on their own or crumbling over a smoothie bowl.
For a warm, comforting option, Bobo's Apple Pie Stuff'd Oat Bites offer the flavor of a homemade pie in a chewy rolled-oat bite. Individually wrapped and made with coconut oil instead of processed seed oils, they feature a sweet apple puree filling spiced with cinnamon that makes them a great on-the-go treat.
Bulk snacking made joyful, not stressful
Filling your cart with snacks you feel good about doesn't have to be complicated. It just takes a little label know-how and a sense of what you and your family actually enjoy eating. Snacking should be fun, easy, and full of flavor, not a source of stress every time you walk down the aisle.
With Jackson's now in every Sam's Club nationwide, and that new 24-count Super Veggie Straws® variety pack ready for lunchboxes and busy weeks, your next warehouse run just got a little more exciting. We're so glad to be part of your snack rotation, and we can't wait for you to try all three flavors.
Next time you're rolling your cart through Sam's Club, make a beeline for the snack aisle and shop Jackson's. Your lunchbox, your pantry, and your cravings will thank you.
