Nesquik continues nutritious evolution with new porridge
Nestlé said it is continuing to provide 'more nutritious' choices for children with the launch of Nesquik All Natural Porridge.
The porridge is made with '100% natural ingredients' and is a source of fibre with at least 70% oats, a mix of oat flakes and oat bran. It also contains wheat and cocoa, with no artificial flavors, the company said.
Nestlé stressed that children in Europe are not eating the recommended intake of dietary fibre.
The range includes a classic version with cocoa, as well as cocoa & banana and cocoa & apple varieties with the inclusion of real fruit pieces.
The porridge has less than 5g total sugars per serving and meets WHO EU nutrition criteria. Consumed with milk, a serving contains an additional 6g of sugars from the lactose naturally present in milk.
First launched in Germany in July, the porridge will be available in further European markets including Portugal and Poland.
