About 2Snack

"2Snack" is a snack developed with the concept of "Better Bites! A little good habit that starts with that one bite." It offers an addictive quality that makes it hard to stop eating, dispelling the image that guilt-free snacks are unsatisfying or bland. With careful selection of ingredients and flavors, it allows you to fully enjoy the taste of carefully selected ingredients while being plant-based and light.

Currently, four flavors are available: "2Snack Fragrant Truffle," "2Snack Charred Garlic," "2Snack Fragrant Japanese Black Tea Sable," and "2Snack Rich Gateau Chocolat Style Sable." All four flavors use plant-derived ingredients and contain 0mg of cholesterol. They are also enriched with dietary fiber, allowing for guilt-free enjoyment. They are proposed as an option that supports your mind and body while satisfying your mood in various situations, such as during work, short breaks, or as a gift.

*2 Although the chocolate used in this product's ingredients does not contain dairy, it is manufactured on the same line as products containing dairy, and cross-contamination cannot be avoided, hence the allergy labeling.

Development Background

In recent years, snacks have become more than just a way to satisfy hunger; they are chosen to accompany various daily scenes, such as for a change of pace between work and chores, for relaxing alone time, or for time spent with family and friends. Meanwhile, with the growing health consciousness, there is an increasing need to pay attention to ingredients and nutritional value when choosing snacks, while still valuing "deliciousness" and "satisfaction."

Overseas, snacks, crackers, and bars incorporating dietary fiber are gaining interest as the next trend following high-protein foods. In the Japanese snack market, products incorporating protein and dietary fiber are also trending as convenient and nutritionally balanced snacks. Dietary fiber is one of the nutrients that people are conscious of incorporating into their daily diet. While the recommended intake is 25g per day, the median intake for modern Japanese adults (18 years and older) is around 13.3g/day, falling significantly short of the target.

At 2foods, true to the brand's spirit of "There are always two things you want," which fulfills both deliciousness and health desires, we have developed products that allow you to achieve "two" things, such as the gummy "2Gummy LIPOSOME VC" with liposomal vitamin C and the addictive and guilt-free "2Snack." These products allow you to consider inner care deliciously, smartly, and enjoyably simply by changing your usual snacks.

The new flavors of 2Snack CRISPY type aim to be snacks that can be easily incorporated with dietary fiber, not only as a treat but also as a snack for home drinking or evening drinks. They feature a non-fried, crispy texture, umami flavors that pair well with alcohol, and are designed to provide plenty of dietary fiber. They also consider calories, fat, and sugar content, achieving 0mg cholesterol. They have been developed as "smart snacks" in the 2foods style, enjoyable for those who want to be particular about their snacks for home drinking or evening drinks but also want to take care of their bodies.

We propose "2Snack" as a new option for snacks that complements the little good habits of everyday life.

Points to Consider When Choosing Snacks, According to Registered Dietitian Kazumi Matsuo

Snacks enjoyed with alcoholic beverages tend to be high in flavor and fat, which can lead to overeating. Many people feel they want to enjoy alcohol but are a little concerned about their snacks. When choosing snacks, it's important to consider not only their compatibility with alcohol and satisfaction but also whether they provide nutrients that are important to incorporate into your daily diet, such as protein and dietary fiber. It's also recommended to choose options that have texture and chewiness, providing a sense of fullness even in small amounts, rather than just fried or high-salt items.

Dietary fiber, in particular, is a nutrient that is often lacking in modern diets. Since it can be difficult to consume sufficient amounts through daily meals alone, it is important to consciously incorporate it in various eating occasions, such as snacks or between-meal snacks. Dietary fiber is also attracting attention from those concerned about post-meal blood sugar levels and fat intake. It can be incorporated as a component to support eating habits during drinking, and it is also known as a component that improves gut environment and supports daily regularity. It is a nutrient that cannot be overlooked when considering overall healthy habits during drinking.

As a registered dietitian, I recommend increasing opportunities to consume dietary fiber in a way that is easy to continue. Incorporating dietary fiber into your usual snack time leads to choices that are mindful of your body while still being enjoyable.
