So yes, I&#8217;m delighted to report that Uncrustables is about to make life even easier for the snack-minded among us.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"3\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">According to The J.M. Smucker Co., the brand <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/uncrustables-expands-convenience-with-fridge-friendly-storage-across-its-portfolio--full-rollout-in-summer-2026-302692156.html\" target=\"_blank\" data-vars-ga-outbound-link=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/uncrustables-expands-convenience-with-fridge-friendly-storage-across-its-portfolio--full-rollout-in-summer-2026-302692156.html\" data-vars-ga-ux-element=\"Hyperlink\" data-vars-ga-call-to-action=\"just announced\" data-node-id=\"3.1\" class=\"body-link css-8bav6j emevuu60\">just announced<\/a> that its <em data-node-id=\"3.3\">entire<\/em> Uncrustables lineup will be fridge-friendly, with a full rollout beginning this summer. That means you won&#8217;t have to plan your sandwich cravings an hour in advance anymore, with the idea being to remove that most annoying barrier between you and a PB&amp;J: thaw time. <\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"4\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">The sandwiches will still be sold in the freezer aisle, but at home, you&#8217;ll have options. You can keep Uncrustables in the refrigerator for up to five days for grab-and-eat convenience, or leave them frozen if you\u2019re stocking up for the long haul.  The company says the taste and texture won&#8217;t change, and that the same soft bread is baked daily in U.S. bakeries, with the sandwiches frozen on-site for freshness, just without artificial preservatives. <\/p>\n<section data-embed=\"watch-next\" data-lazy-id=\"P0-17\" data-node-id=\"5\" class=\"embed\"\/>\n<section data-embed=\"instagram\" data-lazy-id=\"P0-18\" data-node-id=\"6\" class=\"embed\"\/>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"7\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">This fridge-friendly move was shared at the Consumer Analyst Group of New York 2026 conference, and it follows the brand&#8217;s newer morning direction, too.  Two morning flavors already fit the fridge plan: Up &amp; Apple (peanut butter and apple cinnamon jelly) and Bright-Eyed Berry (peanut butter and strawberry jam), each with 12 grams of protein per sandwich.  They\u2019re currently available nationwide at Kroger, Walmart, and Target. <\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"8\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Don&#8217;t worry, your freezer isn\u2019t getting kicked to the curb. It&#8217;s just no longer the only door into your adult PB&amp;J era.<\/p>\n<section data-embed=\"editorial-link\" data-lazy-id=\"P0-19\" data-node-id=\"9\" class=\"embed\">\n<aside class=\"css-fcvumo e94w1mj1\"\/><\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2 min read Uncrustables is making its whole lineup &#8220;fridge-friendly,&#8221; meaning no more waiting around for a thaw.
