Jamba's New Wraps, Salads and Flatbreads Offer a Better-For-You
Option For Tasty Food On the Go EMERYVILLE, Calif., Aug. 20
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Jamba Juice announced today the Chicago
debut of its new food menu of delicious and better-for-you wraps,
salads, flatbreads and fruit tea infusions. Launching initially in
18 area locations, the new menu offers busy Chicagoans a satisfying
way to grab a tasty meal on the go without sacrificing quality for
speed of service. The new Grab-n-Go food, California Flatbreads(TM)
and Fruit Tea Infusions(TM) are made with high-quality ingredients
and designed to meet customer demand for great tasting food that
supports a healthy lifestyle. With customers becoming increasingly
savvy about what goes into their food, Jamba Juice was extremely
passionate in deciding on ingredients that should not be in their
products. Like all of the Jamba products, the Grab-n-Go food and
California Flatbreads(TM) contain 0 grams trans fat, no artificial
flavors, no artificial preservatives and no high fructose corn
syrup. "In a bustling city like Chicago, our customers are always
looking for something they can eat on the run," said Brian Lee, VP
of Innovation and Quality, Jamba Juice Company. "Without
compromising on taste and quality, we are committed to offering our
customers food served fast they won't feel guilty about eating--at
lunch, or dinner, or any time in-between." The Grab-n-Go items--a
portfolio of ready-made wraps, sandwiches and salads--make a tasty
meal that can be enjoyed on the fly. The Grab-n-Go food selection
consists of four different wraps, including an Asian Style Chicken
Wrap, Chimichurri Chicken, Greek Goodness(TM) (which is vegetarian)
and the Greens and Grains Wrap (which is vegan). Jamba will also
offer a Gobble'licious turkey sandwich and two salads--Caesar the
Day!(TM) and Ginger Soy Salad Joy. The California Flatbreads(TM)--a
perfect combination of yummy ingredients on top of a crispy
crust--make a great pairing to any Jamba Juice smoothie. An
excellent source of protein, the California Flatbreads(TM) will
come in four different flavors including Four Cheesy(TM),
Smokehouse Chicken, Tomo Artichoko(TM) and MediterraneYUM(TM). In
addition to the introduction of food, Jamba Juice is extending
their drink offerings with the launch of Fruit Tea Infusions--an
infusion of organic green tea and natural fruit juices served over
crushed ice. The perfect accompaniment to the new menu items, the
Fruit Tea Infusions(TM) are made with all-natural ingredients,
natural fruit juices, contain no high fructose corn syrup and are
an excellent source of Vitamin C. With a whole serving of fruit and
160 calories in a 16 0z serving, the Pomegranate, Passion Fruit and
Prickly Pear are refreshing, healthy, and great for any time of
day. "Chicago represents the most significant launch for food since
June, when we kicked off our new menu at over 220 of our California
locations," stated Kim Larson, Vice President Marketing, Jamba
Juice Company. "The reception of food by customers has been
tremendously positive and we are continuing our expansion
nationwide." Jamba Juice customers can now enjoy a full menu of
food offerings in almost 300 locations, including 18 locations in
the Chicago marketplace and over 250 locations across Northern and
Southern California. And, as of July 27 2009, New York City
marketplace customers can also indulge in California Flatbreads.
