Breaking away from its usual seafood offerings, StarKist has announced plans to launch its first ever chicken product: Chicken Creation™ Pouches. The company’s new line of chicken pouches will come in four flavors and add to the company’s 15 varieties of Tuna and Salmon Creations pouches.
According to a press release, these single-serve, shelf-stable 2.6 oz pouches will sell for about $1.75 at retailers nationwide.
"After 100 years in the tuna business, we proudly announce that StarKist is now a diversified healthy food company," said Andy Mecs, Vice President of Marketing & Innovation. "It is our goal to provide convenient, healthy options that satisfy the palates and nutritional needs for all Americans. Chicken Creations is a natural extension to our highly successful Tuna and Salmon Creations as we already have the pouch expertise and consumer trust in our high-quality flavored-protein products."
StarKist noted that the tear-open, no-drain packets, with all white-meat chicken, will come in four flavors: Bold Buffalo Style, Zesty Lemon Pepper, Ginger Soy, and Chicken Salad.
“I’ve loved working with StarKist over the past year. Their delicious line of tuna and salmon pouches—especially BOLD Hot Buffalo Style—has become my go-to snack post-workout or on set,” said Candace Cameron Bure, StarKist Spokesperson, and star of hit TV shows Full House and Fuller House. “The launch of StarKist’s first ever chicken pouch line is big, and I’m thrilled I can enjoy the same convenience with this new protein option!”
