Well-Remembered Brand Is Back, Offering Delicious and Innovative Products CHICAGO, August 4
CHICAGO, August 4 /PRNewswire/ -- When was the last time you grabbed a quick bite between meals or stepped out for a snack? If it was only a matter of minutes, this mimics the snacking habits of most Americans. According to the International Deli-Dairy-Bakery Association, on any given day 90 percent of Americans will enjoy a snack, compared to the only 75 percent who eat breakfast and 88 percent who eat lunch. To help satisfy these snacking needs, EAGLE(TM) Snacks, the classic, all-American brand that first brought hungry airline fliers honey-roasted peanuts, is returning to the snacking scene this summer with the nationwide debut of its two new snack line products popping and bursting with flavor, Poppers! and BURSTS!(TM).
"EAGLE(TM) Snacks is back with products and flavors that reflect the palate of today's snacking constituency," said Reserve Brands Inc. President and CEO Scott Lazar. "Discerning snackers need variety and a break from the same-old, same-old traditional snack food fare. EAGLE(TM) is responding with innovative and delicious flavors and textures that provide a truly unique snacking experience to wake up tired taste buds."
EAGLE(TM) Snacks successfully delivered for consumers before -- with nearly $500 million in annual sales, it was the second largest snack brand during its tenure under Anheuser-Busch ownership. Now under Reserve Brands Inc., it aims to break boundaries and please American snackers once again. Today's EAGLE(TM) Snacks believes all citizens should achieve life, liberty and the pursuit of snacking satisfaction. It therefore pledges its allegiance to delivering creative, great-tasting products to its snacking constituency.
Product Party Platforms
EAGLE(TM) Snacks give time-crunched snack-loving citizens a real reason to make time for a real CRUNCH break. Anytime, anywhere -- big occasion or small soiree -- Poppers! and BURSTS!(TM) deliver amusement and merriment to consumers' mouths.
EAGLE(TM) Snacks' Poppers! are crunchy potato spheres with a zest-packed punch you will crave. Poppers are available in four savory flavors -- Honey Barbeque, Habanero, Sweet Onion and Salt & Vinegar.
The new EAGLE(TM) BURSTS! (TM) on the other hand, are delectable corn puffs that will tantalize your taste buds with their smooth flavors and melt-in-your-mouth texture -- these premium snacks are unlike anything else in the snack aisle. BURSTS!(TM) come in Cinnamon & Sugar, Caramel Dulce de Leche and White Cheddar flavors.
Consumers who fondly recall EAGLE Snacks, and eagerly embrace the idea of a new premium snack, can find Poppers! and BURSTS(TM) in 2.5 ounce bags at grocery stores or online at http://enjoyeagle.com, under "FIND EAGLE." BURSTS!(TM) and Poppers! suggested retail prices are $2.79.
