EPIC Provisions is offering more than just Meat Bars and Performance Bars for on-the-go snacking by introducing its all-new Rise & Grind Bars as a protein-packed solution for the morning. Unlike many sweet [grab-and-go snack bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/savory-protein-bars) that are filled with fruits and nuts, these ones feature eggs and meat—the 1.5-ounce EPIC Rise & Grind Bars feature organic egg yolks sourced from Pete and Gerry's Organic Eggs, humanely raised [pork and chicken raised without antibiotics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/free-range-pork-bar).

These paleo-friendly, gluten-free bars help to fuel the body for the day ahead and provide a [source of protein](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pure-protein-ammmaze-bars). While the variety with bacon and egg yolks shares nine grams of protein, the snack bar with chicken, apple and egg yolks serves as a quick way to get 13 grams of protein.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Meat-based Breakfast Bars:** The growing demand for high-protein breakfast options presents an opportunity for the food industry to explore meat-based bars as a disruptive innovation.
- **Paleo-friendly Snacks:** The popularity of paleo-friendly diets creates a market opportunity for snack manufacturers to produce paleo-friendly meat-based breakfast bars.
- **Morning-inspired Protein Snacks:** The convenience of on-the-go morning snacks that are high in protein and low in sugar creates a chance for food companies to innovate with meat-based breakfast bars that feature eggs and meat.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Food and Beverage:** The food and beverage industry can capitalize on the trend toward protein-packed breakfast options with the development and marketing of meat-based breakfast bars.
- **Fitness and Nutrition:** The fitness and nutrition industry can leverage the high-protein content of meat-based breakfast bars to promote them as a convenient and effective way to fuel the body for active lifestyles.
- **Organic and Humane Farming:** The trend toward organic and humane farming practices creates opportunities for farmers to specialize in the production of organic eggs, pork and chicken used as ingredients in meat-based breakfast bars.
