Do they replace a meal or help you survive until your next one? Or, maybe they\u2019re an energy boost? What about a reward or something to satisfy a craving? You aren&#8217;t alone if your snacks function as just one of those, or if they are all three at the same time. According to Tamara Barnett, VP of strategic insights for Bellevue, Wash.-based Hartman Group, \u201cHow we go about planning, acquiring and consuming food has been disrupted, and the result has been the displacement of meals and variations in when, how and what gets consumed.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To help the San Diego consumer adjust to these changes and see value in a snack or beverage, it is important to understand what the three primary snack needs are. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Snacking for Nourishment <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">helps to meet daily caloric needs and to stay hydrated<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">keeps energy levels stable and up<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">helps to manage health and diet<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">stops hunger between meals<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">examples: yogurt, granola bars, whole fruits and vegetables, water, and smoothies <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Snacking for Optimization <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">helps to meet mental and physical performance goals <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">offers an energy boost<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">helps with recovery after exertion (loss of nutrients, fluids &amp; energy levels)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">increases mental focus<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">examples: coffee, whole fruits, popcorn, nuts, and higher protein bars or smoothies <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Snacking for Pleasure<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">offers comfort and stops cravings, at least momentarily<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">can be either an indulgence or a reward<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">creates a time to eat different flavors and textures<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is an opportunity to discover and try new foods<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">examples: cookies, candy, chips, wasabi peas, salted nuts, and flavored milk<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-129\" style=\"font-size: 16px;\" src=\"http:\/\/trircoffee.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/AdobeStock_122174364-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Break Room Snacks in San Diego\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trircoffee.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/AdobeStock_122174364.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/trircoffee.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/AdobeStock_122174364-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trircoffee.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/AdobeStock_122174364-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each of these snack needs can function independently or in combination with each other. In most situations, the San Diego consumer unconsciously requires that the snack be pleasurable even if the primary goal is nourishment or optimization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Understanding the different snack needs of your employees is important as snack consumption in the workplace is up 10 percentage points to 16% compared to five years ago. 16% of the individuals looking for a snack find it at work (cafeteria or catering) and another 14% find their snacks in vending machines. One way to increase those numbers and have a positive impact on your employees is to reconsider the types of snacks and beverages offered in your <a href=\"https:\/\/trircoffee.com\/micromarkets.html\">office break room<\/a>. Barnett suggests optimizing break room layouts and product assortments to inspire snacking occasions and to meet your employees\u2019 needs. Not only is it good for your employees\u2019 health and well-being, but it\u2019s also good for company morale and productivity. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To learn more about the wide variety of food, snacks, and <a href=\"https:\/\/trircoffee.com\/coffeetea.html\">beverages<\/a> we offer and our vending options including traditional and <a href=\"https:\/\/trircoffee.com\/healthy.html\">healthy<\/a> vending, free vend, and micro-markets, contact <a href=\"https:\/\/trircoffee.com\/contact.html\">Tri-R Coffee &amp; Vending<\/a> at (760) 753-1112. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How do snacks fit into your day?
