OHME! Foods Launches Blueberry Yogurt Crunch: A Creamy, Crunchy Celebration of Real Fruit, Real Culture, and Real Innovation
VANCOUVER, BC, May 8, 2025 /CNW/ - OHME! Foods, the Canadian snack brand redefining healthy snacking with its clean, freeze-dried creations, proudly announces the launch of its newest product: Blueberry Yogurt Crunch — a shelf-stable, on-the-go snack made with just three simple ingredients: blueberries, Canadian Greek yogurt, and apples. Sweet, tangy, and naturally protein-packed, this latest addition is a crunchy nod to OHME!'s roots — both in food and in culture.
Founded by Jenny and Han Yue, two Asian Canadian health-conscious project managers turned entrepreneurs, OHME! Foods is built on a mission to make snacking fun, nutritious, and accessible. As proud members of the AAPI (Asian American and Pacific Islander) community, Jenny and Han are sharing their culture through food—celebrating simplicity, wellness, and flavour-forward creativity.
"We grew up in families where food wasn't just nourishment—it was love, care, and storytelling," said Jenny Yue, Co-Founder of OHME! "With OHME!, we wanted to bring that same intention into modern snacking—real ingredients, real joy, and none of the junk."
OHME! first made waves with its freeze-dried fruit line and quickly built a loyal following across North America. Now found in over 120 retailers and recently picked up by Urban Outfitters US, the company is expanding its beloved yogurt crunch line to include Blueberry—following popular demand after the success of their Mango and Strawberry flavors.
Made in Canada, the Blueberry Yogurt Crunch took over seven months of testing to perfect. "We didn't want it to be crumbly or chewy—we wanted that perfect crunch, like a yogurt parfait you can eat with one hand," said Han Yue, Co-Founder and Product Lead. "Turns out it's really hard to make something this simple—and that's what makes it special."
Blueberry Yogurt Crunch is now available online at www.ohmefoods.com and through select retailers across Canada and the US. As part of the launch, customers who sign up for OHME!'s newsletter will receive an exclusive gift with purchase, while supplies last.
In honour of AAPI Heritage Month, OHME! is also spotlighting other AAPI founders and creators throughout May via social content and community partnerships—continuing to uplift the voices behind the snacks.

Same-store food sales in Canada saw a 5.1% increase, driven by increased consumer demand from initiatives like the Inuit Child First Initiative. International Operations experienced strong results with same-store sales gains of 2.6% in food and 5.2% in general merchandise. Gross profit dollars increased by 7.2% due to sales gains and a 103 basis point increase in the gross profit rate. The Next 100 program is yielding financial benefits, including more effective promotions and cost savings initiatives. Expenses rose by 8.7% due to higher staff and technology costs, as well as increased depreciation and foreign exchange impacts. The Next 100 program incurred $2.1 million in onetime costs for professional fees, impacting overall expenses. Wildfires in Northern Canada have negatively impacted sales, affecting approximately 10% of the company's sites. Payments from the First Nations drinking water settlement are expected to be slightly less than last year, impacting revenue. The Inuit Child First Initiative funding has been limited, potentially reducing access to nutritious foods and impacting sales. Q: How many communities does North West operate in Northern Canada, and how are they affected by the wildfires? A: North West operates in about 140 communities in Canada. The wildfires have affected roughly 10% of these sites, with sales significantly reduced in the affected areas. However, some stores remain open to service emergency workers and residents still in the community. Q: Are the payments to individuals from the First Nations drinking water settlement less in 2025 than in 2024? A: The growth rate of payments is about on par with last year, but we anticipate that the total payments will be slightly less than in 2024. Q: How is the Inuit Child First Initiative affecting food same-store sales growth? A: The program has slowed down significantly compared to last year, impacting access to nutritious foods. There is ongoing effort to restore the program to its previous state, but no interim measures are currently in place. Q: Can you provide an update on the performance of North Star Air and its impact from the wildfires? A: North Star Air had a good quarter, meeting expectations. The wildfires have not negatively impacted its operations; instead, the airline has been able to assist communities due to its operational flexibility. Q: How should we expect the benefits of the Next 100 program to ramp up, and when will we see a full run rate? A: The program is expected to mature by 2026, with benefits ramping up steadily through the year. By the latter end of 2026, we will be able to provide a more definitive outlook on the program's impact.
