Morinaga America, the makers of HI-CHEW, are introducing a new brand called FI-BEING that shares better-for-you hard candies. Each serving of FI-BEING provides 39% of the daily recommended dietary fiber intake. Additionally, the healthful hard candies deliver four grams of sugar and they contain zero sugar alcohols. Available in sweet and tart Passionfruit and Elderberry flavors, these candies deliver the taste experiences fans crave.
FI-BEING sets itself apart by using dietary fiber, called Inulin, and other unique formulations, to partially replace the candy's sugar content. With each serving of FI-BEING providing 11 grams of dietary fiber, these candies stand out to consumers who consider fiber content.
The name of the new brand comes from the product's two main attributes: fiber and being.
