Uncrustables were introduced as crust-free grab-and-go peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and they are now being shared in the form of savory pockets. While there are crust-free sandwiches that can be enjoyed with sweet hazelnut spread, nut butter and honey or straight-up peanut butter fillings, Smuckers is expanding its Uncrustables to include BBQ Chicken Bites and Taco Bites.
On the inside of the bite-sized, heat-and-eat stuffed bread pockets are meat and other ingredients to round out each flavor and offer up to eight grams of protein per pack of two. While the savory Taco Bites are filled with beef crumble, cheese, salsa and taco seasoning, the mess-free BBQ Chicken Bites contain white meat and barbecue sauce.
