Ready Pac Launches Ready Snax for Back to School Season
IRWINDALE, CA – With August nearing to a close, back to school season is already in full swing. Ready Pac has parents looking to put together healthy lunches for their kids covered with its new line of Ready Snax® products. Ready Snax® provides a wide array of on-the-go snack packs with fruits and vegetables paired with a great dip or treat.
“By offering a wider variety of delicious and healthy components, Ready Snax helps parents find more ways to introduce daily healthy eating habits to their kids without the boredom and limitation we traditionally think of in terms of nutrition,” said Tristan Simpson, Vice President of Corporate Communications at Ready Pac.
More than ever before, parents are looking for healthier options for their kids' lunches. For example, Mom bloggers at Completely You said that, “Sending kids to school with a nutritious lunch isn’t always easy. Although school lunches are mandated to be healthier this year, many parents still prefer their kids bring food from home for both financial and health reasons.”
Linda Spiker, the writer behind The Organic Kitchen, elaborated on this point, saying that, “If you buy prepared food, make it good food! Always pack veggies, and be sure to add variety. Nothing makes your child want to trade their lunch for a friend’s Hostess cupcake faster than opening their lunchbox to the same ol’ same ol’ every darn day.”
Ready Pac is confident that its Ready Snax® product line will be exactly what these parents are looking for. According to a press release, Ready Snax® come in 6 flavor combinations:
- Carrots, Grapes & Cheese with Pretzels
- Fruit, Cheese & Flatbread Crackers
- Apples & Cheese with Caramel Dip
- Veggies & Cheese with Ranch Dip
- Veggies, Hummus & Sunflower Seeds
- Apples, Granola & Yogurt
Ready Pac also wants consumers to know that its Ready Snax® line isn't just for kids. In Technomic’s 2014 The Snacking Occasion Consumer Trend Report, 51% of consumers saying they snack twice a day, 60% calling portability extremely important for any snacking option, and 50% saying that healthfulness is very important to them. Ready Pac is pointing to Ready Snax® as a perfect option that fulfills all of these desires.
