Hormel Foods is continuing to expand its REV brand with an all-new line of meat and cheese bites.
Previously, Hormel released REV Wraps, which pairs different kinds of meats and cheeses in a convenient snacking format. Now, these meat and cheese pairings are being offered in an even smaller bite-sized format with REV Bites. These snacks featuring pepperoni, ham and turkey can be eaten cold or hot if warmed in the microwave for a few seconds. These single-serve two-ounce snack packs contain about six small meat and cheese bites that are loaded with about seven to eight grams of protein.
Because of the ingredients in the snacks, they are meant to be kept in the fridge until they are needed as after-school or on-the-go snacks.
