As an alternative to producing another sweet snack bar for the market, PowerBar recently unveiled a trio of protein-packed bars called 'Jerky & Nut Savory Snack Bars.' These snack bars feature a blend of beef jerky, nuts and seeds in three flavors: Original, Teriyaki and Barbecue.
As consumers look for satiety and portable sources of protein, there are a greater number of bite-sized meat snacks that are emerging on the market, as well as new food formats that embrace mixtures of nuts, fruits and meat in a single ready-to-eat package. At the same time, many consumers are also looking to diversify the sources from which they get their protein, and plant-based nuts also serve as a great source of the essential nutrient for the human body.
