In addition to the new Kids’ Pak, which will include a toy designed to encourage physical activity, the Subway chain is re-designing its subwaykids website to offer educational games and health information, the company said.
After research and product testing, Subway said its Kids’ Pak now consists of a fresh deli-style sandwich, a Minute Maid 100% fruit juice box and a General Mills Fruit Roll-Up fruit snack. The new Kids’ Pak has less fat, saturated fat and cholesterol than traditional burger and french fry fastfood meals, Subway said.
