LET'S FACE IT, WE HAVE BECOME A NATION OF SNACKERS, I MEAN THINK
ABOUT IT, WHEN YOU'VE BEEN HUNGRY, YOU WANT SOMETHING
THAT'S FAST AND OF COURSE YOU CAN ALWAYS GRAB A PEICE OF
FRUIT, LIKE AN APPLE OR AN ORANGE, OR EVEN SOME CARROTS AND
THOSE ARE GREAT BUT SOMETIMES YOU JUST WANT SOMETHING MORE.
SO WE ARE TALKING MORE OPTIONS THIS MORNING, IN THIS EVERYDAY
GOURMET SEGMENT.
OUR GUESTS THIS ORNING ARE STEVE KNEEPKENS VP OF SALKES AND
MARKETING OF UBER SNACK COMPANY CALBEE NORTH AMERICA AND
JENA COOLIDGE OF SANTEE INTEGRATED, WELCOME TO THE SHOW
GUYS.
THANKS DANIELLE.
THANK YOU.
SO...AS I JUST SAID WE LOVE TO SNACK BUT I AM GOING TO ADMIT I
LOVE TO SNACK ALL DAY, EVERYDAY.
BUT, THAT IS NOT NECESSARILY A BAD THING IS IT?
NO IT IS NOT.
STUDIES PROVE THAT THE MORE YOU SNACK THE BETTER AND HEALTHIER
YOU WILL ACTUALLY FEEL.
YOU KNOW, YOU YOU HAD AN INTERESTING STATISTIC THAT I
LOVE LOVE LOVE.
IT IS, IT'S A GROWING TREND IN THE UNITED STATES THAT ON
AVERAGE CONSUMERS SNACK A THOUSAND TIMES A YEAR.
A THOUSAND!
THREE TIMES A DAY.
SO BECAUSE PEOPLE LOVE TO SNACK SO MUCH AND PEOPLE LIKE ME AND
YOU AND I WERE TALKING, WE BOTH EAT HEALTHY, WE BOTH WORK OUT.
WE WANT WHOLESOME SNACKS WHAT SHOULD WE LOOKING FOR?
WELL YOU KNOW, NOT ALL SNACKS ARE ALWAYS TRUE TO
THEIR LABEL, SO YOU HAVE TO BE CARFUL.
HMM.
YOU NEED TO LOOK FOR A SNACK THAT HAS A HIGH PERCENTAGE IN
IT'S INGREDIENT BASED.
SO YOU REALLY WANT TO LOOK FOR THAT KEY INGREDIENT THAT HAS
THAT HEALTHFUL BENEFIT THAT WERE ALL LOOKING FOR.
THERE'S THREE THINGS THAT YOU SHOULD ALSO LOOK FOR IN
SNACKING.
ONE IS SOMETHING LOW IN SODIUM.
LOVE IT.
SOMETHING LOW IN CHOLESTEROL.
LOVE IT.
AND SOMETHING HIGHER IN FIBER.
UHH HUH, SO THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW, BUT HERES THE OTHER THING, I'M
GOING TO ADD A FOURTH THING WHICH IS TASTE, IT'S GOT TO
TASTE GOOD, CAUSE IF IT DOESN'T TASTE GOOD...I HAVE TO TELL YOU
I PROBABLY WON'T BUY IT AGAIN.
YOU KNOW, YOUR NOT GOING TO BUY IT, YOUR NOT GOING TO BUY IT,
YOUR KIDS ARN'T GOING TO EAT IT, IT'S AS SIMPLE AS THAT.
YEA.
YOU KNOW I COME HOME FROM WORK, I WANNA GO, YOU KNOW GO WORK OUT
AND SO I WANT THAT, LIGHT CRISP CRUNCH AND I WANT TO BE
ON MY WAY.
I'M WITH YOU ON, I LOVE THAT.
YOU KNOW AND THE THING IS I HAVE THREE KIDS UNDER THE AGE OF
ELEVEN AND I'M REALLY TRYING TO TEACH MY KIDS TO LIVE A MORE
HEALTHFUL LIFESTYLE, SO WE DO READ THE INGREDIENT LABELS, WE
EAT VERY HEALTHY, I BUY VEGGIE CHIPS, BUT ALTHOUGH I WILL EAT
THEM CAUSE I KNOW THEY ARE GOOD FOR ME, THEY WON'T EAT THEM
UNLESS THEY TASTE GOOD AND IT'S, I WANT TO KIND OF BE ABLE TO
SNEAK SOME GOOD VEGETABLES INTO THEIR DIET.
WELL, SNACKING IS A MOTIVE AND SNACKING SHOULD TASTE GOOD.
YEA.
THERE'S NO REASON IT SHOULD, YOU SHOULD EAT SOMETHING THAT YOU
DON'T LIKE.
SO THE PREMISE OF CALBEE FOODS IS TO CREATE SOMETHING THATS
TASTY FIRST, WITH A NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS THAT FOLLOW.
HERE'S THE THING AND YOU GUYS KNOW, WE TALKED ABOUT THIS.
HOW MUCH DID I EAT IN MAKEUP BEFORE WE CAM OUT HERE.
YOU DID WELL DANIELLE.
I ATE A WHOLE HALF BAG.
YOU DID.
I DON'T FEEL HEAVY I DON'T FEEL LIKE OH, I BLEW MY DIET OR
ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
ACTUALLY THE NUMBER ONE INGREDIENT IS A SNAP PEA.
70%... IMAGINE THAT.
...OF THE PRODUCT IS A SNAP PEA. 70% YOU SAY.
70% SNAP PEAS.
AND OUR LENTILS ARE 65 TO 70% LENTILS.
YES.
THERE BLENDED WITH A LITTLE BIT OF RICE FLOUR.
THERE BAKED, ADDED A LITTLE BIT OF SEASONING AND WHOLA, YOU HAVE
OUR HARVEST SNAPS.
AND THERE YOU GO, IT SAYS RIGHT THERE, MADE FROM WHOLE LENTIL
65%, MADE FROM SNAP PEAS, WHOLE PEAS, 70%.
CORRECT, YUP.
GREAT.
AND I THINK THAT'S SO IMPORTANT BECAUSE YOUR GETTING THAT
PROTEIN TOO.
IT'S A SIMPLE CONCEPT, THINGS ARN'T ALWAYS WHAT THEY
APPEAR TO BE.
YOU KNOW WHAT I WOULD LOVE TO APPEAR ON MY SALAD, I CAN PUT
THESE ON MY SALAD.
(LAUGHS).
WOULDN'T THAT BE GREAT FOR A SALAD.
IT'S A GREAT ALTERNATIVE TO CROUTONS, BECAUSE THEY ARE LOW
IN CARBOHYDRATES.
UH, HUH.
THERES ACTUALLY PLENTY OF RECIPES THAT YOU CAN USE THESE
PRODUCTS WITH.
YOU COULD ACTUALLY HAVE A LOT OF FUN WITH IT.
AND I REALLY DON'T EMOTE OVER EVERYTHING.
(LAUGHS).
BUT THESE REALLY ARE SO SO GOOD.
REALLY GREAT INFORMATION GUYS, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COMING BY.
THANKS FOR HAVING US APPRECIATE IT.
