EAST HANOVER, N.J.,
Jan. 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/
-- Kids today are constantly on the go, bouncing from school
to glee club to soccer practice – which means parents need
wholesome snacks with important nutrients – snacks that can provide
nutritious fuel as kids prepare for their next adventure. Finding a
snack with both the delicious taste kids want and other positives
like protein and whole grain[1] is as easy as picking up a box of
Honey Maid Go Bites. Today, Honey
Maid, part of the global snacking powerhouse Mondelez
International, Inc., unveiled a mess-free snack both kids and
parents can enjoy.
Honey Maid Go Bites Filled Snacks are crispy graham pockets
filled with delicious ingredients kids can love together with 7g of
whole grains and 5g of protein per 30g serving. In line with the
full portfolio of Honey Maid's
wholesome offerings, Go Bites Filled Snacks are made with whole
grains and real honey, without high fructose corn syrup or
artificial colors.
"Parents are looking for snacks that are easy and nutritious,
while kids want snacks that taste great," said Tracey Benitz, Senior Brand Manager, Wholesome
Kids, North America. "Our goal is
to consistently provide families with delicious, wholesome and
enjoyable snacks that both parents and kids can agree on, and Go
Bites do just that – combining nutrients like protein with a
delicious filling."
Go Bites delivers the dual benefits of protein to help support
growth. Children rarely get the recommended amount of whole grains
in their diets1. Go Bites also delivers whole grains
that provide wholesome energy to help fuel active play.
Honey Maid Go Bites are now available in mass retailers
nationwide for the suggested retail price of $4.19 per box in both chocolate and vanilla
filling flavors. For more information, check out HoneyMaid.com,
