GLENVIEW, Ill., May 11, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- KFT | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- The lunch hour just isn't what it used to be. Nearly half (45 percent) of the country's workers say they're taking shorter and/or fewer lunch breaks than they did a year ago. And while many are skipping lunch to trim expenses, more than a third say they pass on the mid-day lunch break thanks to an increasing workload(1).

DiGiorno is bringing innovation to the workplace to infuse a little excitement into America's lunchtime woes and help workers take back their lunch hour. For the first time ever, the DiGiorno brand is bringing fresh-baked taste beyond the pizza aisle with new DiGiorno Flatbread Melts, a line of premium, single-serve handheld meals. With toasty flatbread folded over Italian-inspired ingredients such as white meat chicken, fire-roasted vegetables and delectable cheeses, new DiGiorno Flatbread Melts help consumers make the most of their busy lunch break with a hot, restaurant-quality meal in less than four minutes.

"Whether you're buried under a full desk of work or running late to a meeting because of noontime traffic jams, we understand that finding time to enjoy lunch can be a challenge," said Tom Moe, Director-Marketing of DiGiorno. "With new DiGiorno Flatbread Melts, we're serving up a delicious, premium meal in just minutes to help busy consumers make the most of their lunch."
