Asda has launched an innovative new cottage cheese format aimed at shoppers looking for a healthy lunchtime snack, The Grocer reports.
The 200g cottage cheese snack pot is produced by Arla Foods and contains a tub of cottage cheese, a sachet of tangy tomato chutney and four crackers. Data tracked for The Grocer by Brand View show that the snack pot went into stores last week, priced at £1.
Asda claims the product “makes lunch a bit more interesting”, adding “cottage cheese is a great solution as it’s high in protein but low in fat”.
The launch comes as interest in cottage cheese is rising. Last month, Holy Cow organic cottage cheese – one of the few branded cottage cheeses – was relisted by Waitrose.

There was little festive cheer beyond the alcohol aisles for supermarket bargain hunters in the run-up to Christmas, the latest Grocer Price Index reveals.
Although prices across the big four were, on average, 0.2% lower in December than in November, this was largely down to a 5% cut in alcohol prices. In fact, of the 15 categories surveyed for the Grocer Price Index by Brand View, only alcohol and household goods showed average price falls in December.
Asda’s post-promotion prices rose 9% year-on-year versus 4% at Tesco, 3% at Sainsbury’s and 7% at Morrisons.

In a recent interview with computing.co.uk Sainsbury’s CIO Rob Fraser explains the success behind the Brand Match initiative.
According to Fraser, more customers were given vouchers in the first 40 days after the Brand Match implementation than have ever been rewarded on the Asda scheme, which has been running for more than two years. Fraser puts this down to the system’s real-time capabilities, something he says is essential in making it far simpler for the customer.
“Sainsbury’s partners with a firm called Catalina to provide the till solution for Brand Match, and with a company called Brand View, which provides data for the real-time price comparison.”
“It’s clever because it’s simple. Our competitor’s web sites are up all the time, so we always have access to their pricing. If you capture that data, it’s a relatively simple exercise to keep a running total of what that shop would be costing at that point in a transaction at Asda or Tesco,” says Fraser.
