Can't Stop, Won't Stop Snacking

Posted in Breakfast on March 3, 2016

Snacks are no longer the stuff of sporadic bites to satiate a desire. Today, they’re moving from between-meal munchies to main event. People are replacing entire meals with snacks or even skipping main meals all together in favor of all-day snacking,1

With 90% of consumers snacking multiple times1 a day, you need a variety of snacks that play into all dayparts and dietary needs to ensure customers stay satisfied.

Keep nutritious optionslike fresh fruits and items made with whole grains—on hand to appeal to conscientious eaters. Smaller portable items can keep on-the-goers coming back for more.

And don’t forget dessert. The sweeter stuff—such as cookies and candy—is a sure-fire way to please people looking for an escapist moment after a well-balanced meal.

So from morning to noon to nighttime and beyond, snacking is serious business and an awesome opportunity for you.
