The snack food market continues to grow, with Nielsen reporting sales of nearly $33 billion in 2017 in the U.S. alone. With their increasingly busy lifestyles, consumers appreciate convenient, portable, single-serve snacking options, especially those that offer health benefits, pack a punch of protein, eliminate preservatives, and provide variety. With this in mind, Expresco Foods of Montreal, Quebec, Canada, has introduced a mini-size portion of the hand-grilled chicken skewers it sells as a meal solution in retail and club stores.

Called ProSticks, the fully-cooked, snackable skewers come two per pack, contain 21 g of protein, are preservative-free, and offer three flavor options: Mediterranean with Sweet Teriyaki sauce, Sweet Sriracha with Sriracha-style sauce, and Chipotle with Chipotle BBQ sauce. Says Michael Delli Colli, Marketing Manager for Expresco Foods, the “satisfying and savory hand-held ProSticks are the optimal snack for today’s consumers on the go.”
