When I left my home in Mexico City for Chicago, one of the first things I did was go to the grocery store.
I remember going into the "ethnic aisle" and feeling lost. I didn't see anything that portrayed the Mexico I knew. There were rows of old school “Mexican” brands—sometimes US-owned—rooted in clichés of food and culture. Little health or freshness, all sombreros.
I created Nemi Snacks to share un poquito de México with you and bring you a taste of the liveliness, colors and joy of my cultura with a sombrero-free branding.
Our food traditions are rooted in familia, from mi abuela’s cocina to ancestors harvesting in Aztec villages. The old ways sustained body, soul and planet, and we return to that indigenous genius in our simple, real food recipes.
That’s why we took Nemi’s name from “to live” in Náhuatl, the language of the Aztecs. Food is love and life, and we want ours to be nourishing to your body and fresh in every way possible.
We have the opportunity to create more than a snack. A good business should be good to the community. From our farmers to our social feed to your salad, we want Nemi to be sustainable and delicioso in all ways.
We partner with small independent Mexican farmers using sustainable farming techniques. Meet Francisco and his certified organic farm!
We work with womxn of color who hold positions usually reserved for men to build greater economic independence and equity.
We provide a monthly donation to a local nonprofit committed to food justice.
Let customers speak for us
It's hard to stop eating Nemi... Need I say more?
So happy the Chile turmeric was not too spicy.
My question is:is there really 35 gm of fat or is it 3.5? Th flavor so good. Glad to have another flavor we like.
I loved how flavor filled each bag was. I loved them
So much I shared them with friends.
I like these! They're lite and flavourful and don't pack on the sugar like my usual mid-day snack do!
I love to keep a pack of Nemi snacks in my purse to ward off the urge to grab an unhealthy snack on the go. Delicious!
I’m glad I am able to enjoy all the available flavors with this fiesta pack! The savory spicy Turmeric Chili and Smoky Chipotle are so good and the Cinnamon Churro is a great dessert snack! The Mexican Lime was my least favorite but I’ll still eat it! Love these high protein, high fiber snacks.
The snacks were delicious, my personal favorite was the churro cinnamon. These bags stood out amongst the other chip bags on our shelves and immediately drew the attention of everyone who was looking for a snack! Will definitely be placing another order!
A refreshing flavor that goes well with any other flavors on the menus.
Love love all Nemi sticks. I love the crunch and tartness of the Mexican lime. They are my favorite afternoon snack!
These are definitely my new favorite healthy snack, and I really do love all three of these flavors, they are os unique and add the perfect amount of flavor. this pack is a great way to get all of the flavors together. the only problem is that I go through the 15 bags way too quickly!
unreal flavor/seasoning on these! and the best crunch! they are also really satiating/filling which is a huge bonus. since I first tried these I now always have to have at least a few bags in my pantry
