Smashburger Develops Healthier Kids Meals

Side options now include Musselman’s® Unsweetened Squeezables Applesauce

September 1, 2015
Smashburger introduced better-for-you options to its Kids Meal Menu. Seared and seasoned in Smashburger’s own kitchens, new Grilled Chicken Strips are 100% premium all-white meat with no artificial flavors or fillers, making them an option for kids. Smashburger’s newest side option, Musselman’s Unsweetened Squeezables, is a single-serve applesauce in a re-closable pouch with no added sugar or sodium.

“We’re thrilled to introduce new better-for-you items to our Kids Meal Menu,” said Tom Ryan, Co-Founder and Chief Concept Officer for Smashburger. “These additions are a result of our core consumers asking for more Kids Meal options. We pride ourselves on having an innovative menu that is constantly evolving, so we’re extremely excited to see how our fans like our new better-for-you kids meal options.”

Kids can enjoy an entrée, side and drink for a total of $5.49 at participating Smashburger restaurants nationwide. In addition to our new options, Smashburger’s Kids Meals provide numerous entrée choices such as a Kids Smash™, which is a smashed-to-order burger made with 100% Certified Angus Beef®, topped with American cheese and sandwiched between an egg bun, Crispy Chicken Strips, an All-Beef Hot Dog, Grilled Cheese and the new Grilled Chicken Strips. Side options now include fries or Musselman’s® Unsweetened Squeezables Applesauce.

Guests can round out their meal with one of three drink options, including Organic HONEST Kids® Juice, Horizon Milk® or a fountain drink. An organic beverage, Organic HONEST Kids® Juice is sweetened only with fruit juice and contains half the sugar of leading kids juice drinks. Horizon Milk, another organic beverage is another great better-for-you choice.
