From the Breakfast Table to Snacks On-the-Go, Hain Celestial Provides Delicious, Better-For-You Essentials for Back to School
HOBOKEN, N.J., Aug. 1, 2024 /CNW/ -- Back-to-School season is upon us, and with it comes back-to-packing-lunches, back-to-carpools and back-to-back commitments for busy parents and kids. In fact, 8 in 10 parents plan to enroll their children in extracurricular activities this school season1.
As families gear up for another school year, leading health and wellness company Hain Celestial Group (NASDAQ:HAIN) is here to provide delicious and convenient better-for-you snacking and meal prep solutions to keep the whole family's tastebuds satisfied and bellies full.
Keep Snack Cravings Met
According to U.S. data, more than half of parents are looking for better-for-you snacks that their kids will actually enjoy2, and 58% of consumers say they're interested in snacks that are easy to eat on the go3.
- Combining craveable flavors, convenient and crunchy formats, and veggie ingredients, Garden Veggie Snacks™ are a satisfying crowd-pleaser at lunch or snack time. Stock up on the new Garden Veggie™ Flavour Burst™ Tortilla Chips – which offer a taste bud adventure for kids and parents alike – or look for the lunchbox-friendly, single-serve packs of fan-favorite Garden Veggie Straws®.
- For the youngest school-goers, Earth's Best® Organic offers a range of yummy snacks to help bridge the tricky hours between pick-up and dinnertime. Bring tasty fun to their busy days by offering award-winning Earth's Best® Organic Garden Veggie Straws4, Veggie Puffs and Sunny Days Snack Bars®, all featuring Sesame Street. Each is certified organic and made with wholesome ingredients.
Meal Prep Like a Pro
Breakfasts and lunches that are nutritious and delicious? Back-to-school win.
- A filling and protein-packed breakfast can set the tone for the entire day. Start it right by spreading velvety smooth MaraNatha® Creamy No Stir Almond Butter on toast or mixing it in oatmeal. Natural and organic, MaraNatha also offers a peanut butter option that's perfect for a better-for-you take on the classic PB&J sandwich.
- Greek Gods® Yogurt brings the delicious taste and silky smooth texture of a Greek-style yogurt without the tang. Let each member of the family top Greek Gods® Traditional Plain Yogurt with their favorite fruit, honey or granola for a fun start to the day or a great addition to their lunch.
- Plants can also be an alternative source of protein. Pack the perfect lunch using Yves® Plant-Based Deli Slices on your favourite sandwich bread. Add lettuce and tomato, and pack carrot sticks for a fresh and delicious lunch.
Satisfy Carpool Companions
Let's face it: Fall's on-the-go schedule is just as busy for the rest of the family as it is for school-aged children. For an elevated, salty snack for Mom or Dad, snag a bag of Terra® Original Vegetable Chips, which feature a mix of sweet potato, earthy parsnip, golden kettle potato and mildly sweet batata, crisped into chips and seasoned with sea salt. Simple and delicious.
Shoppers can stock up on these better-for-you family favorites at popular back-to-school destinations including Walmart, Amazon, Loblaws and Sobeys, as well as local grocery retailers and specialty shops. Prices vary and are at the sole discretion of the retailer.
