Applegate Farms, LLC Continues its Growth in the Breakfast Category with APPLEGATE NATURALS® Pancake & Sausage Stick

Tags

Bedminster, N.J.

With this expansion, Applegate becomes the first company to offer a nationally available Applegate humanely raised* pancake on a stick

The makers of APPLEGATE®, the nation’s leading natural and organic meat brand, today announced its continued expansion into the breakfast category with its latest innovation: APPLEGATE NATURALS® Pancake & Sausage Stick.

This convenient on-the-go offering is perfect for big and small hands alike. Featuring a fluffy pancake wrapped around savory sausage placed on a stick, APPLEGATE NATURALS® Pancake & Sausage Stick is an ideal ‘heat and carry’ option for busy mornings. Made with 100% natural Applegate Humanely Raised* chicken, and featuring 7g of protein per serving, Applegate’s newest breakfast item continues the company’s breakfast growth, while simultaneously marrying convenience with satisfying protein.

“Weekday mornings are busy – not just for parents, but kids, too, and trying to think of nutritious and delicious meals can put a damper on mealtimes,” said Joseph O’Connor, President of Applegate. “With this launch we hope to give families back some of that time; while starting the day off right.”

The APPLEGATE NATURALS® Pancake & Sausage Stick is ready in minutes; simply heat, let cool, and enjoy savory sausage and fluffy pancake batter. This breakfast addition is made with Applegate’s signature high-quality, simple ingredients, and meat sourced from animals raised with no antibiotics, ever.

APPLEGATE NATURALS® Pancake & Sausage Stick is available now with an MSRP of $7.99, sold exclusively at Whole Foods Markets.
