Snack kits have long been the go-to choice for lunchboxes and on-the-go eating by offering kids a satisfying variety of little things to pick at, but they've often fallen short where it matters most, and Sargento Mighty Bites is a new line of snack kits remedying this with 100% natural meats and cheeses. Nutritionally, these kits deliver up to 14 grams of protein per kit, thanks to a combination of mini pieces of meat, cheese, brand-name crackers and treats.
Made to mix, match and stack, these lunch snack kits launched in the refrigerated lunch snack kit aisle in varieties like Uncured Salami & Natural Cheddar Cheese with RITZ mini crackers and milk chocolate-covered pretzels, and Uncured Pepperoni & Natural Mozzarella Cheese with Wheat Thins crackers and fruit natural flavored snacks.
