Fromageries Bel in France released P'tit Dej, a spreadable cheese for children. With the fun loving Asterix cartoon branded on the cheese cup, P'tit is said to be a great way to start the day. Children and parents will be attracted to the convenience of the product because it is shaped for children's small hands. It is available in a 150g pack.
In Finland, Lahden Vientikerma released a multi-pack dessert under the Jacky brand. Jacky Monipakkaus is a dessert for children. Each pack contains eight 125g-tubs of raspberry vanilla yogurt and eight 90g-tubs of milk chocolate pudding. The product is certainly marketed towards children because of the cardboard packaging that can be made into a toy farmhouse without cutting or gluing. Cardboard figurines of dairy cows are also included.

The health benefits of black foods include blood thinning, lowered blood pressure, improved blood circulation, lowered cholesterol and improved energy levels.
In Japan, Azumino Shokuhin Kobo has introduced a strawberry yogurt drink. This unique probiotic drink is loaded with chopped strawberries. The package comes with a thick straw to let through the large strawberry dices. It contains BB-21 bacteria, claimed to reach the intestines alive.
