Why Fiber Is the Back-to-School Nutrient Everyone’s Talking About, and That’s it. Is at the Center

PR Newswire

LOS ANGELES, July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — That’s it., the 100% real fruit snack brand, has delivered fiber from fruit for almost 15 years. Fiber is now officially the nutrient of the moment: Datassential named it the next big health trend on the heels of protein, more than 9 in 10 Americans don’t get enough, and legacy snack giants are racing to launch new products with added and fortified fibers.

That’s it. offers back-to-school snacks made with one to four simple ingredients, fiber from fruit, plant-based protein, and no added sugar.

That’s it. is on track to deliver 350 million servings of fruit and more than 1 billion grams of fiber from fruit this year, up from 250 million fruit servings the year before – enough fiber from fruit to give 40 million students a full day’s recommended fiber intake.

For families, that means one less thing to plan for during a season already packed with shopping lists, new routines and meal planning. Whether it’s a lunchbox, a backpack or a dorm room, Fruit Crunchables, Fiber Fruit Bars and Fruitola Fruit Granola are made with 100% real fruit and no added sugars, for benefits and ingredients families can feel good about without spending time scrutinizing a label.

The timing is bigger than the trend. This is the first back-to-school season since the release of the 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, and while the new guidelines have sparked debate, their guidance for kids echoes what nutrition experts have said for years: children should avoid added sugars through age 10, limit or dilute 100% fruit juice, and get more fiber from whole foods. Every That’s it. snack has met these standards since 2012.

As “fibermaxxing” fuels a wave of new snacks made with isolated and added fibers, experts continue to point families toward the original source: whole fruit, where fiber naturally occurs alongside water and nutrients.

“As a dad packing lunchboxes myself, I want the fiber my kids eat to come from real food, in a format they love and will actually finish,” said Dr. Lior Lewensztain, founder and CEO of That’s it., a doctor turned entrepreneur and father of two school-age daughters. “That’s exactly what we do at That’s it. We create simple, nutritious snacks parents can trust, designed for every age and stage, and made with fiber from 100% real fruit.”

That’s it. meets kids and parents where they are: in the lunchbox, the backpack, the car, and the cafeteria. That’s it. Fiber Fruit Bars are available in Fun Size, Minis, and full-size Bars, offering 4 to 7g of fiber from fruit per serving for a range of ages, appetites, and lifestyles, including kids ages 2+, teens, college students, and parents, with just 2 to 4 ingredients.

After sampling millions of snacks in K-12 schools and on college campuses, That’s it. Fruit Crunchables and Mini Fruit Bars are now served in schools to over 1 million K-12 students nationwide, and all products are available in more than 85,000 retail doors, including Costco, Sam’s Club, BJ’s Wholesale, Walmart, Target, Kroger, and Whole Foods Market.
