[Update] Cookies, Snacks and the Impact of COVID-19 at Flavorcon Virtual on Demand

As workers around the globe began working from home in an effort to reduce the spread of COVID-19, proximity to the pantry and a need to self-soothe sparked a surge in snacking.

“Cookies, Snacks and the Impact of COVID-19” presented by Meredith Keiling, senior manager of cookies product development, Campbell’s, at the Flavorcon 2020 virtual conference is now available on demand.

Keiling noted, "People are indulging in so many different ways. Cookies are number one, but then you've got chocolate, ice cream, snack bars. The variety is abundant and people are indulging."

During her presentation, Keiling shared her point of view on cookie product development during COVID-19, including trends, changes in consumer behavior and how product developers are working with manufacturing plants and vendor partners.
