A snack can be wolfed back. This is one that deserves 'savouring':
savour: to enjoy food or an experience slowly, in order to enjoy it as much as possible

Thanks. I think that the image of nibbling (rabbit) or a grazing (sheep) should indeed be avoided.

German term (edited):
als Snack zum Auszuzeln
to be enjoy as a snack
In the context of "als snack zum Auszuzeln" I would leave the nibbling/sucking/chewing out of the TT altogether, as Thomas suggested. "Savour" is well on the right track, but again "savour in the mouth" is too specific for an English reader.
However, you can still convey the sense of pleasure the consumer should have by using another word that is more appropriate for an English audience. I would go with "to be enjoyed as a snack". Personally, I find that "savour" sounds a bit too luxurious for an edamame ;)

I apologize for the typo, that should say "to be enjoyed as a snack", not "to be enjoy"!

finger food
Organic soybeans, or edamame, are a healthy finger food choice in moderation for little ones.

finger food to be sucked, sounds not very appetising. I usually open them and pull out the beans.

to eat straight out of the pod
is what I would say, since the beans are inside pods and this includes the idea of auszuzeln without using suck or anything similar

But that's not going to work in the English-speaking world. Maybe not even in the German-speaking world outside Bavaria.
