Hi, Iām BUNKY. Hereās what 7 months actually looks like š
August: brought tiny bags to my favorite workout class.
December: sold out. January: dropped the big bags. 22g protein, zero seed oils, no chalky aftertaste. Thatās the whole point.
April: got laid off from my day job. Threw everything at this.
Also April: rolled out at The Fresh Market.
May: I canāt tell you whatās coming yet, but I can tell you itās the biggest one.
To everyone who tagged a friend, sent a bag to a buyer, posted a story, ate one in the car at 9pm. Youāre the reason this exists.
New flavors loading. Be here for it.

Big Popcorn doesnāt know I exist yet. They will.
$7B industry. 20 years. Zero innovation.
SkinnyPop sold for $1B. LesserEvil sold for $1B. Both selling you air, salt, and seed oil. Neither one ever tried to put function in. So I did.
Popcorn has been my favorite snack since I was a kid. And it stopped trying a long time ago. Empty calories, no redeeming benefits. Iām putting function back in. Iām putting flavor back in. Iām putting real ingredients back in. Thatās the whole point.
75 stores down. 30,000 to go. Only 7 months.
Follow if you want to watch one guy take a swing at a $7B industry.
Episode 5: Poppinā Off
A snack I made in my home kitchen is now in multiple stores 3,000 miles away from where I live.
Funny how things work out.
Just trying to make BUNKY a household name.

This is as transparent as it gets. As honest as I can be.
Iāve tried my hardest over the time that Iāve been building BUNKY to make everything clear, to build in public and let you all know what is going on. Iāve spent so much time on weekends and nights trying to build this while working on my day job and now itās the full time thing. Here is to loss, sadness and motivation all in one video.
If you have been munching on BUNKY for a while, shoot me a DM, tag a friend, grab a bag where you can find us, send this to a person you know would want to support a small business trying to make it bigā¦
More to come soonšæ
