Smucker's® Uncrustables® Brand Removes High Fructose Corn Syrup from the Classic PB&J Sandwich Recipe





ORRVILLE, Ohio, May 31, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Just ahead of the busy summer snacking
season, Smucker's® Uncrustables® has updated its full sandwich line by replacing high
 fructose corn syrup with sugar while maintaining the delicious taste families love.
The reformulated Smucker's Uncrustables sandwiches have also been certified
non-GMO and NSF Non-GMO True North™ by NSF International. NSF 
International provides third-party certification for non-GMO products.
"While the immense popularity of Smucker's Uncrustables has led to record sales,
we continually review our products and ingredients to make sure they meet the
evolving preferences of our consumers," said Maribeth Burns, vice president
corporate communications at The J.M. Smucker Company. "As more and more
 families enjoy Smucker's Uncrustables sandwiches as a snack or a meal, it is
 important we maintain the superior quality and ingredients consumers have come
 to expect and the taste they have come to love."
This announcement comes on the heels of plans to build an additional
  Smucker's Uncrustables manufacturing facility in Longmont, Colorado.
The new facility will help meet growing demand for Smucker's Uncrustables,
 which has grown from approximately $10 million in annual sales in 2000 to
a $200 million business today. The new Longmont facility will complement
 the company's Smucker's Uncrustables sandwiches manufacturing facility
in Scottsville, Kentucky, which will continue to produce up to two million sandwiches per day.
The reformulated Smucker's Uncrustables sandwiches will begin to appear
 in frozen aisles of retailers nationwide this summer. They can be easily
 identified by new product packaging that features no high fructose corn syrup,
 while continuing to show important features like protein content, flavor variety,
and sandwich count.
Smucker's Uncrustables sandwiches are delicious pre-made frozen peanut
 butter and jelly sandwiches that consumers simply thaw and serve. With a
 variety of sweet and fruit spreads and whole wheat and reduced-sugar options,
these handheld sandwiches make perfect on-the-go snacks or meals.
Smucker's Uncrustables sandwiches come in a variety of flavors including
 peanut butter and grape jelly, peanut butter and strawberry jam, peanut butter
and honey spread, and chocolate flavored hazelnut spread.
