CU has launched the 'Protein Ready Meal Series' in collaboration with SPC Samlip, significantly increasing the protein content.

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] CU announced on the 20th that it has launched the ‘Protein Ready Meal Series’ in collaboration with SPC Samlip, significantly increasing the protein content.

The Protein Ready Meal Series consists of a total of five items: Protein Chicken Sandwich, Protein Chicken Burger, and three types of Protein Salads including Herb Chicken, Spicy Chicken, and Chicken Breast Sausage.

The Protein Chicken Sandwich is made primarily with Cha Grill Herb Chicken, a chicken breast seasoned with herbs. It features a savory taste enhanced by onion slices that add a crunchy texture, along with onion cream sauce and honey mustard. This product provides a total of 17g of protein, which is over 40% higher compared to the average protein content of about 12g in regular sandwiches.

The Protein Chicken Burger is topped with a chicken patty and chicken salad on a soft brioche bun. It contains a generous amount of chicken breast, providing 20g of protein, which accounts for 38% of the recommended daily protein intake for adults. The Protein Salads also help maintain nutritional balance by supplying up to 24g of protein at once, along with carbohydrates and minerals.

A BGF Retail official stated, “Reflecting the growing interest in healthy eating habits due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, we have introduced a ready meal series fortified with protein. As demand for high-protein products is expected to continue increasing, we will closely analyze customer responses and steadily expand related products.”
