Founded in the farm to fork capital, Davis, CA in 2022, Rivalz is disrupting the $1T extrusion industry with foods that taste better, feel better, and do better for people and the planet. Rivalz is the first food company to apply AI to the cooker extruder, allowing for novel food product designs that are nutrient rich: high protein and low glycemic, without sacrificing taste or affordability, ultimately helping to reverse the 50-year pandemic of malnutrition, diabetes, and obesity.
Rivalz is on a mission to create nutrient-packed snacks that taste better and work harder, because it is not about what we take out, it is about what we put in. Our game changing snacks rival any traditional snack on flavor and provide a new way of thinking about nutrition. We are setting out to give those snacking goliaths a little healthy competition with snacks that tastes better and do better. Welcome to the future of snacking!
