Meeting Consumer Demand for Protein

As 73 percent of Americans are intentionally consuming foods with protein on a daily basis, over half are looking to snacking occasions to prioritise protein intake.

“At PepsiCo, we’re evolving our portfolio to meet shifting consumer preferences toward foods with functional ingredients,” said Tina Mahal, Senior Vice President of Marketing, PepsiCo Foods.

“As more snackers look for protein options that fit seamlessly into their daily routines, PopCorners Protein is a convenient snack offering a good source of protein, with nine grams of protein per one-ounce serving, that can be enjoyed with the great taste of PopCorners.”

As consumers increasingly look for functional ingredients in their everyday food and beverages, PepsiCo is leveraging its iconic brands to lead category transformation.

PopCorners Protein will come in five-ounce bags and four-count multipacks. Available at select retailers at the end of May, with a nationwide rollout in July.
