Fresh Cravings, the family-owned and operated, Arizona-based snacking brand, has expanded its collection of dips at Publix stores, chainwide in the produce section, with the addition of Jalapeño Popper and French Onion Plant Based Dips. These gluten-, dairy-, and preservative-free products join the Fresh Cravings family of refrigerated salsas, hummus, and Organic Kickin’ Queso Plant Based Dip, offering yet another way for snack-seeking shoppers to ‘Crave Goodness.’
Jalapeño Popper is a brand-new flavor in the Fresh Cravings plant based dip lineup. Diced jalapeños and chives are added to a rich and creamy cashew base, giving it a unique, elevated flavor. Fresh Cravings French Onion Dip is made with the zesty flavors of diced and toasted onion, garlic, and black pepper, all folded into a richly smooth cashew base. Both dips are Keto friendly vegan alternatives to traditional dairy dips and are also gluten-free and preservative-free. They are perfect as standalone snacks, paired with a favorite dipper, or incorporated into recipes such as jalapeño pasta or ‘cheesy’ onion bread.
In 2021, plant-based food sales achieved a historic high at $7.4 billion, representing a 6.2% growth from the pandemic-driven highs of 2020, as per the Plant Based Foods Association, Good Foods Institute, and SPINS annual report. This same report sites that plant-based alternatives are now present in 61% of U.S. households.
“We are excited to participate and contribute to the explosive growth occurring in the refrigerated plant based dip category. As the fastest growing refrigerated salsa and hummus brand in America, and one that focuses on creating exceptional products, made with high quality ingredients, we are thrilled to expand our plant based dips at Publix. With these two new vegan dips, we are meeting shoppers where they are at with their dietary needs and preferences,” said Jay Whitney, CMO of FoodStory Brands. “We love rethinking classic dips and making craveable, elevated fresh-snacking options accessible to all.”
Fresh Cravings’ product line, which includes plant based dips, chilled salsas, creamy dips, and hummus, are available at more than 11,000 stores nationwide.
