San Francisco, CA – As the growth of the value-added potato segment continues to outpace the category, retail produce buyers will have the opportunity to offer their shoppers the next, new favorite, quick-to-cook fresh potato item. Debuting at PMA Fresh Summit Convention & Expo, booth #2933, in Orlando, Fresh Solutions Network, the creators of Side Delights® potatoes will be launching 2 new seasoning blends under the Flavorables® line; Salt & Pepper with Parsley and Smokey BBQ. Side Delights Flavorables are triple-washed petite potatoes featuring sachets of delicious, gluten-free, vegan spice blends.
Available in a one-pound microwaveable, recyclable tray, these two new seasoning blends expand the product line’s current lineup of Chimichurri Seasoning (roasted garlic, cilantro, and lemon) and Smokin’ Tomato (roasted tomatoes, garlic and chives). Salt & Pepper with Parsley and Smokey BBQ were inspired by the most popular current potato chip flavors, another favorite tailgating accompaniment.
“Flavorables provide convenience shoppers with a fast, on-trend way to serve fresh potatoes via packaging that attracts their attention on the shelf and increases store sales, “commented Kathleen Triou, President & CEO for Fresh Solutions Network, “Consumers crave tasty, fast and easy ways to prepare fresh potatoes, and we are confident that these bold, popular, new flavors will win them over – and will pair perfectly with their favorite grilling proteins of tailgating season.”
