Hershey creates new guilt-free candy that's a dream combo
Many of us may think we have self-control, but once we take a bite of that delicious chocolate bar we've been thinking about for the last few hours, it's almost impossible to stop at just one piece. Before realizing it, the entire chocolate bar is gone. A few minutes later, our stomachs begin to hurt, and with it comes a creeping sense of guilt that makes us swear we will never do it again. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter The reality is that most of us tend to forget a few days later, turning this unhealthy habit into an ongoing vicious cycle. Related: Hershey creates new candy that's a dream combo Food companies know the guilty pleasure that unhealthy snacks and sweets evoke in millions of consumers worldwide. However, trends are evolving, with older and younger generations prioritizing low-calorie content and clean ingredients like never before. When healthier options are available, this becomes more feasible. Image source: Getty Images To avoid getting destroyed by the competition, many food companies have recently invested in developing healthier alternatives to these indulgent treats. Last year, PepsiCo (PEP) acquired the Mexican-American food brand Siete Food, and Flowers Foods (FLO) bought the healthy snack brand Simple Mills for $795 million in January. Prebiotic alternative soda brands like Poppi and Olipop have taken over the better-for-you beverage market, growing astronomically in only a few years. Related: Hershey combines two beloved products to make dream snack The global healthy snack market was estimated to be worth nearly $96 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach around $145 billion by 2030, with an annual growth rate of 6.1%, according to a study by Grand View Research. Hershey has also expanded its portfolio by investing in the better-for-you snack sector. In April, it made a major business move by acquiring the organic snack brand LesserEvil. However, it's taking the health kick to the next level. Hershey (HSY) has teamed up with the protein bar brand ONE to launch a new collaboration that makes eating chocolate healthier than ever. The result is a chocolate bar you can enjoy guilt-free. Although it might sound impossible, the ONE x Hershey's Double Chocolate protein bar contains 18 grams of protein and one gram of sugar. To promote this new creation, Hershey and ONE are maximizing the celebrity marketing trend and partnering with pro golfer Bryson DeChambeau, who has become the face of the new launch.

Popular protein snack recalled as 'do not eat' alert issued over health risk
A widely-sold protein snack has been urgently recalled amid concerns it could pose a serious health risk to certain customers. The recall, issued last week, affects specific batches of Myprotein Gooey Filled Cookie Double Chocolate and Caramel, which contains an ingredient not listed on the packaging. The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) confirmed that select batches of the cookie, sold in both single 75g packets and boxes of 12, have been found to contain cereals containing gluten - specifically wheat - that is not declared on the label. This could make it dangerous to eat for anyone with with wheat allergies, gluten intolerance or coeliac disease. The affected batches have best before dates ranging from June 17, 2025 to July 16, 2026. Consumers who are allergic to or intolerant of gluten are advised to not eat these products. The FSAI said: "The above batches of Myprotein Gooey Filled Cookie, Double Chocolate and Caramel contain cereals containing gluten (wheat) which is not mentioned on the label. This may make the batches unsafe for consumers who are allergic to or intolerant of gluten, and, therefore, these consumers should not eat the implicated batches. The affected batches have been recalled." Myprotein issued a voluntary recall on May 22, stating that the issue stems from a limited number of batches produced by a third-party manufacturer, which holds the highest food safety accreditation. The company reassured customers that the vast majority of its products are made in-house under strict quality control. A spokesperson said: "Out of an abundance of caution, we're voluntarily recalling the Myprotein Gooey Filled Cookie - Double Chocolate and Caramel 75g (Single Cookie) and 12 x 75g (Box of 12), due to the presence of an undeclared allergen, wheat. This could be a risk to people with a wheat allergy or coeliac disease. "We would like to reassure you that the product was produced, packaged, and labelled by a third-party manufacturer that holds a BRCGS Grade AA accreditation, which is the highest standard in food safety and quality. The issue identified affects a very limited number of batches from this external supplier. It's important to note that only a very small portion of Myprotein products are produced externally. All of these partners meet strict BRCGS accreditation standards. "The vast majority of Myprotein products are made in-house at our own state-of-the-art facilities, which also hold BRCGS Grade AA accreditation. This ensures full control over quality and safety across our product range. Your safety is our top priority, and we're working closely with our manufacturing partner to understand how this happened and to make sure it doesn't happen again." For affected customers who have purchased the recalled cookies, Myprotein has urged them to either return the product to the retailer or contact their customer service team for a full refund. The spokesperson continued: "If you have a wheat allergy/intolerance or coeliac disease, please do not eat this product, and contact our Customer Services using 0800 260 6946 Mon-Fri 8am to 4pm with your details, and we will provide a full refund. "If you purchased the product from one of our retail partners, please return the product or bring your receipt to the point of purchase or local store for a full refund. "If you have any questions, please contact our Customer Services at 0800 260 6946 Mon-Fri 8am to 4pm." Gluten is a naturally occurring protein found in wheat, barley, rye and related grains. It gives bread its chewy texture and is found in many everyday foods like pasta, cereals and baked goods. For most people, gluten is harmless - but for those with gluten intolerance or coeliac disease, it can lead to unpleasant and sometimes serious health issues. Gluten intolerance still causes unpleasant symptoms, such as: People with gluten intolerance or wheat allergies are strongly advised to avoid eating the recalled cookies.
