“We are excited to offer kids and the young at heart a fun and healthful new way to enjoy their favorite sandwiches,” said Maureen Linder, Senior Vice President & General Manager, Fresh and Frozen Bakery at Pepperidge Farm. “When you see our Goldfish Sandwich bread, you can’t help but smile. It’s also part of Pepperidge Farm’s ongoing commitment to health and wellness, which we already demonstrate in both our bakery and cracker categories.”
In celebration of the launch of this “smiling” sandwich bread, Pepperidge Farm commissioned “The Shape of Sandwiches” national survey, and found that lunch-making can often be challenging for parents. Whether creating sandwiches for summer afternoons on-the-go or the first day of school, 9 out of 10 moms agree it is easier to get a young child to eat when food is made “fun” by creating shapes and faces. The survey also revealed:
- Many moms receive special lunch requests from their children including “cut sandwich in half” (61%), “cut sandwich into triangles” (50%), “cut sandwich into squares” (39%), and “make a ‘food face’” (23%).
- Furthermore, 71% of lunch-making moms reported they have “surprised them with a favorite food item,” while 63% have “cut the crust off of a sandwich” and 43% have “cut a sandwich into a fun shape” for their children.
