AUSTIN, Texas, June 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- SkinnyPop
Popcorn, a better-for-you snacking favorite, is introducing its
first ready-to-eat popcorn flavors made with delicious real cheese:
Aged White Cheddar and Pepper Jack.
The two new varieties are SkinnyPop's most flavorful and
cheesiest popcorn yet! New Aged White Cheddar uses real white
cheddar cheese that's aged to perfection, offering consumers a rich
and creamy taste. The Pepper Jack variety has a unique twist and
hint of spice that brings extra cheesiness—the good kind.
"SkinnyPop has the best brand fans around and they're always
asking for more ways to enjoy our popcorn," said SkinnyPop Brand
Manager Kyle Banahan. "There's large
demand for cheesy popcorn and we saw an opportunity to bring
everything our fans love about SkinnyPop to this large and growing
segment, this time with a bigger burst of flavor."
Both new flavors bring on the cheese and also uphold the brand
promise of 100-percent SkinnyPop Popcorn, are non-GMO, gluten-free,
kosher and contain no artificial ingredients or flavors. At only
47-calories per cup, cheesy popcorn lovers can feel good about
satisfying their craving for an indulgent-tasting popcorn.
"We're excited to launch our most-seasoned popcorn flavors yet
that are made with real cheese and carry our brand promise of
simple ingredients," said Banahan. "SkinnyPop is proud to be a
go-to source for the allergen-free community and we will continue
to offer our non-dairy cheese flavors for our dairy-free fans."
SkinnyPop's Aged White Cheddar and Pepper Jack flavors are
available at major retailers nationwide and at SkinnyPop.com.
