Snacking is increasing in popularity amongst many different consumer demographics who are looking for a healthy way to stay fueled between meals, which is seeing brands like Jimmy’s Pure Popcorn respond with products tailored for this lifestyle.
The brand has launched a new size variant that is designed for convenience stores and markets to offer customers a simple product to pick up rather than opting for a large bag. The popcorn snacks come in three flavors including 'Slightly Sea Salted,' 'Subtly Sweet & Salty' and 'Sublimely Sweet,' which have all been modified to contain less sugar and salt than any other brand out there.
The Jimmy’s Pure Popcorns are also positioned as a low-calorie option that contains just 98 calories or less per serving.
