"Consumers snack three times a day on average, and 75 percent of adults are looking to add more protein to their diets," said Joe Fragnito, Oscar Mayer vice president of marketing. "The protein snacking category has a 7 percent growth rate, but meat is too often an afterthought with all the yogurt, smoothies, bars and powders on the market. P3 Portable Protein Pack is the ideal product to address this gap in the marketplace."
