Sainsbury’s the latest retailer to launch high protein and ‘nutrient rich’ meals
Sainsbury’s has launched a range of high protein and “nutrient rich” meals as supermarkets rush to meet soaring demand from customers on weight loss jabs.
The UK’s second-biggest supermarket chain said the new “small but mighty” range had been designed to be “perfectly portioned to support customers with reduced appetites” and meet their protein and fibre requirements.
Each meal contains fewer than 350 calories while being a source of fibre, containing at least 20g of protein and counting towards one of the “five-a-day” portions of fruit and vegetables.
Sainsbury’s said online searches for “high protein” were up 57% year on year and searches for “high protein ready meals” had increased by 300% as it also launched 19 products to meet demand.
The range includes a pesto chicken tortiglioni containing 35g of protein and a beef bolognese tagliatelle containing 33g.
Other products include high protein wraps, salads and sandwiches, porridge pots, cereals and natural yoghurts.
In February, the supermarket will also launch a selection of high protein bakery items including tortilla wraps, flatbreads and buttermilk pancakes.
James Campbell, Sainsbury’s director of fresh product innovation, said: “We understand people have different nutritional needs, appetites and tastes, and that continues to guide how we develop our products.”
Sainsbury’s follows retailers including Ocado, Marks & Spencer, Waitrose and Greggs in advertising new ranges catering for those taking GLP-1 drugs.
BENGALURU: India’s Gen Z workforce is embracing what experts describe as “portfolio careers” – balancing multiple professional identities and income streams simultaneously. New research from LinkedIn shows that 75% of Gen Z entrepreneurs in India now manage multiple income streams, significantly higher than the 62% among Gen X entrepreneurs. The findings point to a growing preference among younger professionals for flexibility, autonomy and diversified sources of income. “We’re also seeing the rise of the ‘portfolio era’, with more professionals creating multiple income streams and redefining what a career can look like. This shift is making entrepreneurship more accessible than ever before,” said LinkedIn India country manager Kumaresh Pattabiraman.Rather than depending on a single full-time role, many professionals are simultaneously building businesses, freelancing, consulting, creating online content and monetising specialised skills through digital platforms. The trend comes amid a broader rise in entrepreneurial activity in India. LinkedIn recorded a 104% year-on-year increase in members adding “Founder” to their profiles – the highest growth among all global markets.AI is also emerging as a major enabler of this shift. The report found that 85% of Gen Z entrepreneurs consider AI and digital tools important to their business operations.
Sam Altman said Elon Musk tried many times for total control of OpenAI, which he’s now suing.

United Airlines flight attendants approved a new five-year labor contract with 31% average raises to base pay by August and other improvements, marking the last of the major carriers with unionized flight crews to reach a deal post-Covid.
The labor deal would give United’s roughly 30,000 flight attendants their first raises in close to six years. The company and the flight attendants’ union reached a preliminary deal in March. Crews had rejected a contract last year.
The union said the contract won 82% approval from the flight attendants, with close to 90% of them voting.
“The contract will immediately change the lives of United Flight Attendants, especially our thousands of new hires who have been hired since the pandemic,” said Ken Diaz, president of the United chapter of the Association of Flight Attendants.
The contract also includes boarding pay, or pay for when the aircraft’s door is open and travelers are getting on. Airlines had for years started flight attendants’ pay clock once the boarding door was closed.
The contract comes with a roughly 7% to 8% increase in compensation and $741 million in back pay, as well as quality-of-life improvements like restrictions on red-eye flights and “sit pay” during disruptions of more than 2½ hours.
