A little bite here, a little nosh there, maybe a sip later on. As consumers, we’re snacking throughout the day and for a variety of reasons. Snacks are sustenance, nutrition and indulgence – sometimes a combination - and can be mindful or rather mindless, depending on the occasion. And with pretty much anything constituting as a snack these days, consumers today are still all-in on snacking whether between meals or in some cases in place of meals. In fact, As of mid-2022, core snacking was up 10% in dollar sales over the previous year, outpacing total food and beverage sales.
