Breakfast on the go; Squeezable sour cream; Almond milk plus cashews

Breakfast on the go
Kellogg Co. announced its new Kellogg’s To Go Breakfast Mix, which combines large cereal pieces and nuts in a resealable single-serving pouch and is intended to be eaten without milk. The upright pouch is wide enough to reach into and fits in cars’ cup holders.

“New Kellogg’s To Go Breakfast Mix fits the growing need for convenient breakfasts by providing a delicious, portable option that is custom designed for today’s mobile lifestyle. The food itself is unique for this product, with distinctive big cereal loops and savory nuts for easy finger-to-mouth munching,” says Chris Noble, director of innovation, U.S. Morning Foods, Kellogg Co. “The packaging is also uniquely designed for portability and convenience. … While each pouch holds a single serving, it is resealable to give individual flexibility as to how much to eat at one time.”

Available in two flavors—Salted Caramel & Praline Almond and Cinnamon Roasted Candied Pecan—each variety provides 4 grams of protein, 3 grams of fiber, and 15 grams of whole grains per serving. The mixes can be found at retailers for a suggested retail price of $1.59.

Squeezable sour cream
Daisy Brand introduced a squeezable version of its sour cream, making it easier for consumers to top tacos and quesadillas as well as measure the ingredient for use in recipes such as cheesecake and dips.

“Consumers were asking for a better way to use sour cream as a topping with greater precision than a spoon allows, so we worked closely with them to develop a unique package that suits their needs,” says Craig Ziemkiewicz, director of marketing, Daisy Sour Cream. “Our flexible package is both fun and easy to use, allowing consumers to squeeze a dollop of Daisy exactly where they want it.”

The squeezable package—the first for sour cream, according to the company—sits cap-down, fits in the fridge door, and can be used with one hand. In addition, the opening valve design keeps air out of the package, extending freshness and allowing the consumer to fully use all of the product inside.

Daisy Squeeze Sour Cream can be found at retailers around the country for a suggested retail price of $2.49.

Almond milk plus cashews
Blue Diamond Growers released Almond Breeze Almondmilk Cashewmilk, a creamy blend of Blue Diamond almonds and cashews. Lactose- and soy-free, the calcium-enriched nut milk is available in four varieties: Original, Original Unsweetened, Vanilla, and Vanilla Unsweetened. The Unsweetened flavors contain just 25 calories per serving, and the regular options have 60–80 calories.

“Our newest Almond Breeze Almondmilk Cashewmilk line was inspired by taking the goodness of our almond milk and combining it with the creaminess of cashew milk,” says Suzanne Hagener, senior marketing manager for Blue Diamond.

The milk, which is packaged in half-gallon cartons, can be found in U.S. retailers for a suggested retail price of $3–$3.50.
