Shocker! The protein trend continues, and now it&#8217;s made its way into the round little cheese covered in wax you could spot from across the room\u2014the one I would gladly peel and peel until my hands turn red from the dye.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"3\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Babybel just announced Babybel PRO, a new snack cheese that combines protein and probiotics in one mini, individually wrapped serving. It&#8217;s made with 100 percent real cheese and just four ingredients, and each piece clocks in at 5 grams of protein and 1 billion live &amp; active LGG probiotics, all for 50 calories.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"4\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Babybel says the whole point is giving snackers a more &#8220;functional&#8221; option without forcing them into the usual lineup of protein bars, shakes, probiotic drinks, or yogurt. So expect the same lunchbox-friendly cheese situation, but with a little extra going on.<\/p>\n<section data-embed=\"watch-next\" data-lazy-id=\"P0-17\" data-node-id=\"5\" class=\"embed\"\/>\n<section data-embed=\"body-image\" data-lazy-id=\"P0-18\" data-node-id=\"6\" class=\"embed\">\n<div size=\"medium\" data-embed=\"body-image\" class=\"align-center size-medium embed css-y6m8k e1fodxfw4\">\n<div class=\"css-uwraif e1fodxfw3\">\n<div class=\"css-p7qblm e1mlxuuw0\"><img draggable=\"true\" alt=\"exercise and healthy snacks displayed together\" title=\"exercise and healthy snacks displayed together\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"994\" height=\"559\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" style=\"color:transparent;width:100%;height:auto;\" sizes=\"auto, 100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/bel-brands-babybel-pro-routine-69ac1cdd1383a.jpg?resize=640:* 640w, https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/bel-brands-babybel-pro-routine-69ac1cdd1383a.jpg?resize=768:* 980w, https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/bel-brands-babybel-pro-routine-69ac1cdd1383a.jpg?resize=980:* 1120w, https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/bel-brands-babybel-pro-routine-69ac1cdd1383a.jpg?resize=980:* 1400w, https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/bel-brands-babybel-pro-routine-69ac1cdd1383a.jpg?resize=980:* 1800w, https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/bel-brands-babybel-pro-routine-69ac1cdd1383a.jpg?resize=980:* 2000w\" src=\"https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/bel-brands-babybel-pro-routine-69ac1cdd1383a.jpg?resize=980:*\" class=\"css-0 e1g79fud0\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" data-dynamic-svg=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.delish.com\/_assets\/design-tokens\/fre\/static\/icons\/social\/pinterest.e8cf655.svg?primary=%2523ffffff\" loading=\"lazy\" data-testid=\"dynamic-svg-base\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" alt=\"pinterest\" class=\"css-4lml0h e1mlxuuw1\"\/><\/div>\n<p><figcaption data-theme-key=\"photo-credit-figcaption\" class=\"css-1am3yn9 e1g9hcy40\"><span data-theme-key=\"photo-credit-creditor\" class=\"css-l4pefh e1geg53v2\">Babybel<\/span><\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"7\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">&#8220;As shoppers increasingly seek out snacks that deliver both protein and probiotics, we recognized an opportunity to expand the Babybel portfolio, so consumers don&#8217;t have to choose between goodness and enjoyment,&#8221; said Jessica Dillon, Senior Brand Director for Babybel. &#8220;To meet consumers&#8217; desire for both benefits in one snack, we brought them together in the playful, perfectly portioned format only Babybel can offer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"8\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">The brand is positioning Babybel PRO as an easy grab for daily routines\u2014gym bag, backpack, desk drawer, you name it\u2014and it still comes wrapped in that signature red wax.
