BOLD AND BETTER FOR YOU:
New 0g Trans Fat Vinta and Vinta Squares Now Available

Dare Foods Inc. introduced two new versions of Vinta Crackers. Vinta and new Vinta Squares now have 0g trans fat. These healthier versions of Vinta are part of Dare Foods’ efforts to make all their cracker lines 0g trans fat by mid 2005.

Dare’s new Vinta 0g trans fat and Vinta Squares are made without hydrogenated oils. Still a hearty blend of eight grains and seeds, this better-for-you version of Vinta is also nut free. New 0g trans fat Vinta Squares are the perfect size for snacking. Vinta crackers are packaged in 8.8-oz. boxes, and are available in 60-count displays. Vinta Squares are packaged in 7-oz. snack boxes.

Michael Thompson, Vice President & General Manager, commented, “Dare Foods has grown significantly over the past several years with the launch of new products. Consumers love the unique, robust flavor of Vinta. It just made sense to introduce a snack-size version this popular cracker at the same time we introduced the new 0g trans fat formula. Simply, it gives consumer two exciting reasons to try Vinta, and hopefully other Dare products.”
