Who knew snacking could have a health twist? I recently had the pleasure of speaking with Cheryl Winokur Munk for her latest article in CPG Specialist about the #BetterForYou snack market. We discussed the emerging trend of consumers seeking food products that satisfy multiple criteria – such as high protein and low carb count – and how inflation is impacting innovation in this market.    Here’s a sneak peak: 98% of manufacturers are targeting innovation at mainstream or premium price points with a heavy focus on health and wellness, per the findings in our recent #AdvantageOutlook report.
