Better Break: Del Monte’s New Plant-Based Snack

Del Monte is launching a new product line “Better Break”, the company’s latest solution for consumers seeking out a convenient and nutritious lunch or snack option. The product line will be available nationwide this summer and offers an appealing on-the-go food choice for time-strapped households and for consumers striving to integrate plant-based solutions into their daily routine. 

Better Break is a plant-based snack containing 130 calories or less per serving. The microwavable snack takes three minutes to heat-up and features delicious veggies such as cauliflower, broccoli, sweet potato, kale and corn. Packed with 4 grams of protein per serving, Better Break is a wholesome choice for consumers aiming to enjoy a quick, convenient and healthy snack or lunch. 

“We know that our consumers—millennials especially—are looking for tasty, convenient and wholesome options when it comes to lunch and afternoon snacking. Better Break is our solution for everyone who may be too busy to prepare their own plant-forward options, and we look forward to adding them to our Del Monte lineup at our retailer nationwide this summer,” said Dennis Christou, vice president marketing for Del Monte Fresh Produce. 

The new meals are available in varieties such as Spicy Pomodoro, made with kohlrabi linguine and chunky, spicy chipotle pepper tomato sauce; Zesty Green Chile, with kohlrabi, cauliflower, kale, chickpea and bell peppers tossed in tangy green chile sauce; and Summer  Corn, with cauliflower, broccoli, sweet potato, kale and corn sauce with roasted corn and bell pepper.
