Light + Fit®, Oikos® and Too Good & Co.™ Brands Each Debut Delicious Products In NEW Remix Line

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. and BROOMFIELD, Colo., April 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Americans are snacking more than ever, with a whopping 90 percent reporting they snack one to three times a day.¹ At the same time, nearly half say they're actively trying to eat healthy.²Danone North America is responding to these growing consumer trends and disrupting the yogurt aisle with REMIX – a wide variety of yogurts and dairy snacks with bold mix-ins to satisfy snacking cravings earlier or later in the day. Consumers can feel great about choosing a REMIX snack with knockout taste, epic mix-in toppings and – depending on the brand -- high protein, less fat, or lower sugar options.

Danone's new REMIX collection spans three of its most beloved brands, Light + Fit, Oikos, and Too Good & Co. As one of the largest yogurt manufacturers in the world, Danone is on a mission to bring health through food to as many people as possible. The company's REMIX line delivers in a way that is fun and exciting for consumers, especially as snacking habits evolve. Danone's world-class team of Research & Innovation experts and Nutrition Science experts looked at over 100 ingredients resulting in 50+ different flavor options before landing on its final drool-worthy combinations.

A Snack That's the Best of Both Worlds

The Oikos REMIX™, Light + Fit REMIX™, and Too Good & Co. REMIX™ products give consumers portable snacking solutions that are delicious and convenient.

"It's no secret that snacking is increasing for busy Americans, and we've taken notice," said Rafael Acevedo, President/GM at Danone North America. "We want snacking to feel anything but routine, and at Danone we are positioned to give consumers yogurt options that work for them on all fronts – for their tastebuds, their nutrition goals and their schedules. That's why we created Oikos, Light & Fit and Too Good REMIX, to shake up the mix-in space with options that not only have compelling nutritional profiles, but that taste insanely good, too. All nine varieties and topping combinations are fantastic, but my personal favorite is Too Good - Banana Dark Chocolate Honey."

Made to fit perfectly into the palm of one hand, REMIX features an innovative, patent-pending packaging design with a new recyclable cup shape making it easy to elevate your snack game on the go or at home, morning, noon or night.
