Unstoppable rise of protein: the trendy nutrient that's taking over menus

 

 


High-street food chains excluding / including Pret a Manger and Pod are now placing the nutrient rather than the ingredient centre-stage – and no need to know what foods contain which nutrients, they are telling us upfront: “This is protein.” “Our mission is to offer a balanced menu, so our in-house nutritionist pulled out the key food groups to profile,” explains Pod’s marketing director Meg Ellis. “Hence the name Protein Box.” Pret a Manger’s group director of food, Caroline Cromar, says they are catered / catering to demand: “High-protein diets have been a big trend for some time, so having protein in the product / production name makes it easy for customers to identify them as a good source.” The chain has had an Egg and Spinach Protein Pot and a Veggie Sushi Protein Pot on sale since 2013, at least giving you an idea of what the source of the nutrient might be.
