Chobani unveils protein snack innovation

NEW BERLIN, NY. — Chobani is expanding its high protein portfolio with a new yogurt innovation: Chobani 20-gram Protein Flip Greek Yogurt. The snack features Greek yogurt and blend of freeze-dried fruit and nut mix-ins.

The protein snack is formulated with “billions” of probiotics and vitamin B12, along with no added sugar, lactose or artificial ingredients, the company said.

The yogurt product is offered in four single-serve varieties.

Tropical mango coconut features mango pineapple low-fat Greek yogurt, freeze-dried pineapple, freeze-dried mango, toasted coconut and crisps.

Strawberry banana cashew contains strawberry banana low-fat Greek yogurt, freeze-dried strawberries, cashews and crisps.

Almond coconut chocolate is formulated with coconut low-fat Greek yogurt, roasted almonds, cocoa chunks and crisps.

Pomegranate pistachio chocolate is made with pomegranate low-fat Greek yogurt, pistachios, cocoa chunks and crisps.

“People want snacks that are delicious enough to look forward to and satiating enough to actually keep them going,” said Niel Sandfort, chief innovation officer at Chobani. “We saw an opportunity to take everything people love about Chobani Flip experience and evolve it for those seeking more protein from natural sources — pairing high-quality protein with natural mix-ins to create a uniquely satisfying experience.”

The snacks are set to launch nationwide in August.
