The popularity of Asian-style sweet chili flavors continues to grow in the U.S., and Morey’s Tilapia Sweet Chili is an exciting new entry in that category.

Morey’s Tilapia Sweet Chili is also gluten free, giving it wide appeal to consumers looking for delicious and healthy white fish options.
Consumer research shows that foods with sweet chili and other Asian-style flavors are experiencing double-digit growth across the U.S. and particularly in the South. About 46% of consumers say they love or like the flavor of sweet chili, and 42% say it is their most preferred Asian-style sauce, according to Datassential.
“We’re incredibly excited to add such a beloved flavor profile to our product portfolio with Morey’s Tilapia Sweet Chili,” said Ciera Womack, Director of Marketing, Seafood, for the Consumer Brands Division of Rich Products Corp., parent company of Morey’s. “The combination of high-quality tilapia and a delicious Asian-inspired marinade will definitely appeal to those who love sweet heat and are looking for easy and nutritious white fish options.”
