Key Points:
- Prego, the pasta sauce brand owned by Campbell's, has created the Connection Keeper, a small recording device designed to capture family conversations during dinner.
- The device, developed with nonprofit StoryCorps, records up to eight hours of audio on a 16GB microSD card without using WiFi, Bluetooth, or AI.
- Users can upload their recordings to a StoryCorps microsite to keep them private, share them, or archive them at the Library of Congress.
- The Connection Keeper is intended to encourage screen-free dining conversations and will be sold in a limited run of fewer than 100 units for $20, bundled with Prego sauce, spaghetti, conversation cards, and a USB-C charger.
