Think snacks<\/a> have matured, with little in the way of innovation? Then you obviously haven\u2019t been paying attention to the annual Natural Products Expo West show. Every year, new products are revealed\u2026and trends identified.\u00a0Following this year\u2019s show \u2013 running from March 10-12 \u2013 Claire Nuttall, a specialist in breakthrough innovation in the food and drink, weighed in on the most unique introductions and ongoing trends.<\/p>\n

Half-Popped Corn<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Healthy<\/a>Is your favorite part of popcorn those crunchy bits typically found at the bottom of the bag? If so, you\u2019re in luck. According to Nuttall, snack brands such as Mr.Popular and Half Pops, are introducing this half-popped variety. The thought behind this innovation is to combine the crunch of a tasty savory bite with the puffed corn texture. Also, there are several flavor combinations already available.<\/p>\n

Null Hull Popcorn<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

There are many people who love the taste of popcorn, but can\u2019t stand the hulls. Well, Null Hull popcorn promises to be \u201cpractically hulless.\u201d Using black jewel corn, which is a smaller grain than typical popping corn and is black in appearance, creates a great white color when popped with no crispy outer hull. These will also available in several flavors available, such as regular, sea salt and cheddar.<\/p>\n

Trail Mixes and Jerky Combo Packs<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

The combination of trail mix and jerky has been available for quite some time, but now producers are updating the product to offer an even better consumer experience. The problem with combining these products in the past has been the moisture migration between the jerky and trail mix pieces. Some manufacturers have started\u00a0offering dual packs \u2013 with jerky in one pack and trail mix in the other \u2013 allowing the consumer to open and mix when ready to eat. Other suppliers are simply separating the jerky into a packet within the trail mix package. Regardless of the approach, both options are giving consumers a better tasting product.<\/p>\n

Hemp<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

The overall hemp trend continues. There\u2019s hemp rope, clothing, oil, lotion, shampoo\u2026and now snacks. This was something that started gaining traction last year, but the momentum has only continued to grow. Today there are many new hemp snacks, with bars featuring hemp within or packets of flavored hemp offered as a standalone snack. Given the health benefits and growing popularity, this category is only predicted to get bigger in the years to come.<\/p>\n

Wraps<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

More and more people are avoiding bread, and turning to new, carb-free wrap options. The varieties are seemingly endless, with wraps made of kale, basil, pure coconut, and turmeric. There are also \"Healthy<\/a>several brands now in this category, including Paleo, Blue Mountain Organics, Vito Coco and Nuco. The popularity of these wrap options is a further testament to the rapidly growing interest in healthier snacking options. The first into these categories showed promise in\u00a0healthier snack<\/a> options, but the many companies now entering the market show it\u2019s a demand that can\u2019t be ignored.<\/p>\n
