New Product Review — New salads from Bonduelle

In normal years, the Produce Marketing Association's Fresh Summit event presents the opportunity to explore dozens of innovative fruit and vegetable products being launched at the show. In many cases, samples are provided.

With a virtual showcase in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we still wanted a chance to try out some of the new items coming available from produce marketers around the country. 

Bonduelle, which markets the Ready Pac Foods brand, is introducing several new SKUs at the online show:

  • Smoky Maple Bacon Chopped Salad Kit
  • Southwest Chopped Salad Kit
  • Lemon Arugula Single-Serve Salad
  • Chicken & Guacamole Single-Serve Salad

Check out the video to see a review from retail editor Ashley Nickle and copy editor and designer (and noted foodie) Amelia Freidline. They sampled the Smoky Maple Bacon Chopped Salad Kit and the Lemon Arugula Single-Serve Salad.
