Your Glastonbury Survival Kit: Fridge-less ChicP Snack Pots

So, you’ve secured the ticket. You’ve mentally prepared for the mud. You’ve definitely overthought your outfits. But have you thought about your snacks? We’re not talking about soggy cereal bars or communal pot noodles. We mean actual, grown up, festival proof, sustainable snacks that won’t leave you sobbing into a warm cider at 4am.

Because Glastonbury is a marathon, not a sprint and whether you’re raving in the depths of Shangri-La or pretending you’re not a little bit lost in the Healing Fields, you’ll need fuel. ChicP fuel.

First things First: Why ChicP?

Look, we’re not saying we’ll change your life, but if you’ve ever tried to eat something vaguely nutritious in a field of questionable burritos, you’ll know it’s a war zone out there. ChicP Fridge-less hummus snack pots are vegan, sustainable, naturally delicious and honestly? A bit of a flex when everyone else is on their third bag of Wotsits.

We take veggies, add a swirl of chickpea magic and boom...a snack pot that says “I’ve got my life together,” even if you’re wearing glitter as sunscreen.

Wait… Hummus That Doesn’t Need a Fridge?

Yes, you heard it. This isn’t your sad supermarket tub that turns within 30 minutes of sunshine. ChicP’s ambient hummus is the first of its kind in the UK, a total game changer for anyone who’s ever cried over warm cheese at a festival.

Our snack pots are designed to be shelf stable, which means, no fridge needed and they won’t leak all over your glitter top (we’ve tested).

It’s the festival snack hack no one tells you about, until now.

What to Pack: The Snack Edition

  • ChicP Fridge-less Hummus Pots (x4 minimum): Truffle, Basil, Velvet ... don’t make us choose. These are your pre set energy hits, post set hangover cures and crackers at 2am lifesavers. Pop a couple in your cool bag and guard them like you would your portable charger.
  • Dip-and-Go Gear: If you're don't fancy crackers or breadsticks 5 days on the trot, bring veggies (if you’re being that person) or even a crusty sourdough you panic bought at the farm shop on your way down. 
  • Midnight Grazing Supplies: When it’s 1am, your friends are AWOL and you’re emotionally vulnerable post-IDLES, nothing beats a wrap slathered in hummus.

Pro Tips from the ChicP Team Who Have Lost a Shoe or Two at a Festival

  • Do not rely on food vans for all your meals. Unless you enjoy queuing for 45 minutes for a £17 halloumi wrap that tastes like regret.
  • Pre mix some veggies, roasted chickpeas and dippers and store in jars. Sexy? No. Smart? Absolutely.

Being the person who pulls sustainable, delicious, plant powered snacks out of their tote bag at the right moment? That’s headline behaviour. So when the rain starts, your tent leaks and your mate’s lost her phone again, at least you’ll have hummus.

Pack like a pro. Snack like a queen. Party like you’ve never seen mud before.

See you at the Pyramid Stage (probably with hummus on our chin).
