Kid-Friendly Protein Snack Packs

Hillshire Farm SNACKED! Share Nine Grams of Protein Per Serving

— September 9, 2021 — Lifestyle
Cheese, hard salami and pretzel rods are just some of the assorted foods that can be found in the Hillshire Farm SNACKED! protein snack packs, which boast nine grams of protein per serving. Created with kids in mind, these protein-rich prepackaged snacks satisfy parents' desire for products that are high in quality, easy to prepare and full of flavors that kids will enjoy.

The portable snack packs created for life on the go were intentionally created as versatile, great-tasting, kid-focused snacks with three "poppable" bite-sized components. With a mix of savoy cheeses, meats and a treat, the packs respond to the changing ways that parents are preparing lunches. As Noelle O'Mara, Tyson Foods' Group President, says, "The reality of kids' lunches today is that parents are serving a collection of snacks – versus a main dish, like a sandwich and sides."
Trend Themes
1. Protein Snack Packs - Prepackaged protein snack packs with multiple components have become a trendy and convenient alternative to traditional lunch options.
2. Convenient Snacking - As parents prioritize convenience in their children's lunches, companies have an opportunity to innovate new, versatile snack options.
3. Kid-friendly Foods - More companies are catering to the tastes of children with kid-friendly snack options that still offer high-quality ingredients.
Industry Implications
1. Food Manufacturing - Food manufacturers have the opportunity to develop and market prepackaged snacks with various components and high protein to appeal to busy parents and their kids.
2. Retail - Retailers can take advantage of the popularity of snack packs and offer a variety of options in-store or online for parents seeking convenient, healthy snacks for their children.
3. Education - As schools prioritize healthy options for students, there is an opportunity for food manufacturers and retailers to partner with schools to offer easy and nutritious snacks for kids.
