Pero Family Farms debuts riced vegetable items
Scott Seddon, brand manager for Pero Family Farms, holds one of the newest products for the company, riced cauliflower.
NEW ORLEANS — Pero Family Farms featured its new organic cauliflower rice, broccoli rice and vegetable medley rice at Fresh Summit.
Brand manager Scott Seddon said the reception to those products has been strong.
“Everybody wants it,” Seddon said. “Everybody wants to eat healthy, and they want to cut carbs out and calories and stuff, so this is a really healthy, easy way to do it.”
He reported the company’s other organic side dishes have garnered interest as well.
“All the retailers are hearing from their consumers they want more choices in that organic category, and there really isn’t that many ready-to-go organic choices, so it’s been a good welcoming for us,” Seddon said.
