ConAgra Foods was recognized recently with the Institute of Food Technologists Industrial Achievement Award for its Healthy Choice ® Café SteamersTM product platform. The judges described Café Steamers as “a significant improvement in frozen meal preparation and quality.”

The award honors a company or organization for “an outstanding development which represents a significant advance in the application of food science and technology to food production.” The award was presented at the IFT Annual Meeting and Expo in Chicago, Ill.

“Café Steamers are a true representation of our efforts to use science and innovation to bring consumers high-quality, fresh-tasting food that’s also convenient,” said Gordon Smith, vice president, Research and Development, ConAgra Foods. “To be selected by peer scientists for this award is a real honor.”

Healthy Choice Café Steamers was named in 2009 as the number one new food item, measured by sales in 2008, according to IRI data. The product also received a World Packaging Organisation WorldStar Award in 2009, when it was awarded top honors with the President’s Award Gold. Café Steamers use tray-in-tray steaming technology to separate sauce from frozen ingredients, using steam to cook the meal.
