Land O’Frost recently expanded its product lineup beyond deli meat to include a range of prepackaged meats called Deli Snackers. With a growing number of consumers choosing quick and [portable snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hillshire-snacking-dips-and-spreads) over full-fledged meals, these [bite-sized deli meats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-mad-butcher-bites) are a perfect option.

The Deli Snackers lineup consists of [prepackaged deli-meats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deli-meat1) in varieties such as Black Forest Ham and Buffalo Style Chicken Breast. The meat is cut into bite-sized pieces that are easier for consumers to enjoy on the go than traditional deli meats. The snack is also pre-portioned so that a two ounce serving contains 10 grams of protein and only 80 calories. As Land O’Frost's director of brand management Keith Hill explains, "We know consumers are looking to snack more throughout the day while also finding ways to get more protein in their diets."
