‘Stranger Things’ Star Founds Vegan Hazelnut Spread Brand

TO BE HONEST 

TBH is a brand new, better-for-you hazelnut cocoa spread from Founder and Chief Snacking Officer Noah Schnapp. Launching on November 1, TBH is a game-changing snack that not only tastes great, but does good for the planet, too.  

JAR OF GOODNESS  

Noah grew up as a lifelong fan of the world’s most consumed hazelnut spread. He was shocked when he learned that its first ingredient was sugar and its second ingredient was palm oil – and that harvesting palm oil is a leading cause of deforestation and habitat destruction. Once he realized how bad this traditional brand was for his health and the environment, Noah went looking for an ecofriendly alternative. While some were available, nothing lived up to the indulgent taste he was craving. Inspired, Noah followed his entrepreneurial spirit and teamed up with the folks at Umana Venture Studios, a firm dedicated to building purpose-driven brands, to create TBH.  

TBH is a vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free, kosher hazelnut cocoa spread that has three times more protein and 50 percent less sugar than other hazelnut spreads. Best of all, hazelnuts are the first ingredient and there is zero palm oil. With organic sugar and organic cocoa powder, each jar of TBH is a guiltless pleasure that can be enjoyed on toast, in baked goods, as a dip or even just on its own.  

THE NEXT GEN  

As conscious consumers who shop with sustainability in mind, Gen Z has the spending power to make a difference by choosing products that align with their values. Noah designed TBH with his peers in mind, redefining snacking habits with a version of hazelnut spread that is better for people and planet. Through his platform, Noah showcases how Gen Z entrepreneurs can change the world simply by changing what’s in our pantry, inspiring the next generation of snackers to take action and choose honest, transparent products. 

“TBH is inspired by honesty. It’s about being transparent with ourselves about what we’re actually consuming, and then making a change for the better,” shares TBH Chief Snacking Officer Noah Schnapp. “Hazelnut spread on toast has always been my favorite comfort food, but of course, when I was a kid, I didn’t realize that my snack habit wasn’t very good for me or the environment. Once I found that out, I wanted to create a new take on hazelnut cocoa spread with honesty and sustainability at its heart, and found the perfect team to help that vision come to life. We’ve been working on it for over a year, and I’m grateful to finally share it with other snackers like me. I feel lucky to be in a position where I can help my generation make a difference through simple pantry swaps like TBH.”
