Muuna Unveils Cottage Cheese Portfolio

Muuna has unveiled a line of products featuring single-serve cottage cheese cups available in six varieties, including Strawberry, Blueberry, Pineapple, Peach, Mango and Lowfat Plain. The company is also launching two multi-serve items—Lowfat Plain and Classic Plain. 

Muuna's premium fruit-on-the-bottom flavors each have 130 calories, 9 to 11-grams of sugar and 15-grams of protein per 5.3-ounce container. Muuna's Lowfat Plain has 120 calories, 4-grams of sugar and 19-grams of protein per 5.3-ounce container. All Muuna products contain no high fructose corn syrup or stevia and are free of artificial flavors, colors and sweeteners. Muuna is also gluten-free and certified Kosher. 

"Cottage cheese has been around forever, and mainly thought of as a diet food. The same was true for yogurt, but yogurt innovated while cottage cheese remained stuck in the past," says Gerard Meyer, CEO of Muuna. 

"At Muuna, we decided to reimagine cottage cheese, inside and out, down to our unique, beautiful cup. Today's consumers want good food that tastes delicious, but cottage cheese has developed a reputation as boring and bland. So we spent years creating a proprietary recipe that delivers a melt-in-your-mouth, creamy cottage cheese combined with premium, real pieces of fruit, which will surprise and delight your taste buds. What's more, protein-seekers will be delighted to know that Muuna is high in protein. We invite consumers to compare Muuna to their favorite cottage cheese or their favorite Greek yogurt, because if you like those, you'll love Muuna." 

Muuna cottage cheese is available in 5.3-ounce single-serve cups with a suggested retail price of $1.69 and 16-ounce multi-serve containers with a suggested retail price of $3.49. Muuna will be on the shelves of select Northeast retailers, including ShopRite and Shaw's, this week.
