1.1 Our products
Are your products vegan?
Some are, and some are not. Please check the individual ingredient lists if you have food sensitivities or allergies
Are your products gluten-free?
Every product is dairy and gluten-free except for the chicken which contains yoghurt.
Who are the products for?
Our flavour bombs are for them lazy people who want equal parts nutrition and equal parts PARTY in their mouths. They are also for people who hate cooking, cause around here we HACK our way to simple and fun meals! Think 3 ingredient, less than 10 minutes type of vibe
Are your dips suitable for people on a paleo or keto diet?
Yes, and no. It depends on how strict you are about adhering to these diets. Yes because, our products contain 100% whole foods, which ticks the boxes for both diets. However, you may choose to refrain from consuming our products as they all contain some form of natural sweeteners (none of which are artificial and are naturally derived).
Where are the products made? Is it a halal kitchen?
They come straight to you from our Home Kitchen.
The same kitchen is used to cook other meals. At times, pork/meat is handled in this space, but we assure you that Loaded Gun products are 100% plant-based. At no point do they come into contact with meat products. We are not halal certified.
What items are made completely from scratch?
All of our key ingredients. For example, our Kimchi in our Kick-Ass Carrot Kimchi Hummus is homemade, brewed with the most warming of vegetable broths.Umami Bomb Cashew Cream contains roasted red capsicums and caramelised onions. Bitchin', right?? We think so too.
What is the best way to consume your dips?
The idea is to get it in your mouth, STAT! You could eat them straight out of the tub. The utensil of choice is totally up to you. (Fingers work fine in a pinch!) Our dips are designed to be the perfect accompaniment to any snack. They act as a ‘rempah’ or base sauce, for meals. Some of our favourite ways to scarf them are on pizza, in wraps, sandwiches, and on top of fries. Inventive ways to use them are as pasta sauces, and even ravioli fillings.

How long can I keep the dips for in the fridge?
A good rule of thumb is that they're good for 10 days from the day of delivery or pickup. Like anything fresh, whole and preservative free, they contain the best nutrients, flavour and freshness within this window.
How should I store the products for maximum freshness?
All products need to be refrigerated from 0 - 4 degrees celcius to maintain ultimate freshness.
Can I freeze the dips?
Yes, they can be frozen directly in the jars themselves. Our jars are safe for freezing as they are made with high quality glass :)
How do I defrost the dips and when should I consume them by?
Place the entire jar in the fridge to defrost overnight. The next day (or as fast as 8 hours later), your dip is ready to be enjoyed. Please then consume the dip within the next 7 days.
Will freezing change the texture and taste of the dips?
No, it will not. At most, there will be a thin layer of water formed from the freezing and defrosting process. Just stir through!
I'm having a party! How long can I keep the dip out at room temperature for?
It can last at room tempature for about 3 hours. Avoid direct sunlight. If you are going for a picnic, carrot kimchi is the best option, but not umami bomb or green goddess if you are staying out in the sun for long hours. However, with proper ice bags and cooler systems, all the dips can be brought out for around 2 hours :)
