Healthy snacks boom
This year will see a healthy snacks boom, according to Eurostar, as the British public turn away from snacks high in sugar, salt and saturated fats.
“The British public is wise to hidden sugars and salts and wants to eat different formats and healthier ingredients – avoiding refined sugars and binders in favour of chicory and fibres,” it said.
“Healthy snacks catering for specialist diets are going to come into the mainstream because texture and taste has improved significantly.”
