![]() Beef snacks campaign According to research published by Restaurants Canada, 65% of Canadians have replaced a meal with a snack at least once a month. And half of all Millennials and Gen Z consumers are replacing meals with snacks once a week or more. Recognizing an opportunity to position beef as a healthy and convenient snack, a campaign was developed to showcase beef beyond traditional meals like lunch and dinner. Beef as a snack has many advantages—it contributes to better nutrition and provides an alternative to processed snack foods, perfect for kids and parents alike. Protein remains a key driver of food choices. Reimagining beef ideas as portable, convenient snack foods provides protein-forward options for consumers looking for healthier snack ideas. To support this campaign, a blog post highlighting beef snack ideas was created and posted at Thinkbeef.ca. In addition, a recipe booklet, Power Up! Protein-rich beef snacks for everyday, was produced and posted online; a print version is also available to order. The recipes featured in the brochure are posted at Thinkbeef.ca. ![]() In March, Canada Beef’s Health and Nutrition team worked with two nutrition influencers to produce a campaign aimed at parents that highlighted healthy beef-based snacks for kids. The influencers created static and story posts (reels) and posted them to Instagram; the reels netted over 21,000 views. In addition, Happy Healthy Eaters published a newsletter on beef snacks and First Step Nutrition published a blog with links to the Thinkbeef.ca beef snacks information. The combined reach for these two communications was 25,000. Back to main page ![]() KARINE REKUNYK Director, Health & Nutrition ![]() EMILY RICHARDS Director, Culinary Initiatives |
