Cow Candy now comes in fruit flavors with no artificial ingredients. The new fruit-flavored Monterey Jack Cheese has 15 % of the daily calcium, 4 grams of protein and 1 to 2 grams of sugar per serving.
“Children’s bodies are growing and developing so fast,” says Nutritionist Tierney Planasch. “It’s important for them to consume foods that are high in vitamins and minerals, while lower in sugars. Cheese provides ideal amounts of protein, calcium and vitamin D as well as potassium and vitamins from the B-complex, which helps with muscle and nerve growth.”
According to a release, Packaged cheese sales have surged in recent years due to its convenience and calcium boost.
“As a parent, it can be difficult to find a healthy, easy-to-serve snack that competes with candy,” says Cow Candy founder Danyel O’Connor. “This struggle led to the creation of Cow Candy, a high-quality cheese bursting with fruit flavor to tempt kids’ taste buds and establish healthy snacking habits.”
Cow Candy comes in different flavors including fruit punch jack, grape jack, honey jack, orange jack and strawberry jack cheese. The transparent packaging is flexible and shows the color of the cheeses inside.
