Positioned by the brand as the world's first crunchy yogurt snack, the bites are created by utilizing a vacuum microwave dehydration process that enables them to have textural characteristics like potato chips.

The iögo Crunchy Yogurt Bites will be available in Canada at Couche-Tard and Circle K convenience stores in Quebec and Alberta, respectively. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 71% | Activity: 89% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Crunchy Yogurt Snacks:** The iögo Crunchy Yogurt Bites disrupt the yogurt industry by offering a unique crunchy texture similar to potato chips. - **Vacuum Microwave Dehydration Process:** The vacuum microwave dehydration process used to create iögo Crunchy Yogurt Bites opens up opportunities for innovative food manufacturing techniques. - **Healthy Snacking:** The iögo Crunchy Yogurt Bites tap into the growing trend of healthy snacking by providing a nutritious alternative to traditional potato chips. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Dairy:** The dairy industry can explore the potential of vacuum microwave dehydration process to develop more innovative dairy products with unique textures. - **Convenience Stores:** The introduction of iögo Crunchy Yogurt Bites in convenience stores presents an opportunity for these retailers to cater to health-conscious consumers looking for wholesome snack options. - **Snack Food:** The iögo Crunchy Yogurt Bites disrupt the snack food industry by offering a healthier and more innovative alternative to traditional chips. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Breakfast-Inspired Yogurt Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yogurt-mini-bites.md) - [Blueberry-Forward Yogurt Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yogurt-crunch.md) - [Mix-In Protein Yogurt Cups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/muller-and-myprotein.md) - [Poppable Greek Yogurt Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/greek-yogurt-bite.md) - [High-Protein Yogurt Sticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yopro.md) - [Indulgent Frozen Yogurt Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/igo-frozen-yogurt.md) - [Textural Frozen Yogurt Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yasso-fudge-poppables.md) - [Decadent High-Performance Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/launches-protein-bites.md) - [High-Protein Yogurt Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oikos-pro-highprotein.md)
