OMAHA, Neb., Sept. 21, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Orville Redenbacher's® Gourmet® Popping Corn, a
brand of ConAgra Foods, is shaking up microwave popcorn by adding a
flavorful twist to one of America's favorite snack foods. The
leading popcorn brand has introduced Orville Redenbacher's Flavors, individually
wrapped bags of the brand's beloved microwave popcorn that each
come with a separate seasoning packet, allowing users to sprinkle
on just the right amount of flavor – in White Cheddar, Extra
Cheese, or Sea Salt and Vinegar varieties. And since popcorn
is a good source of fiber and made with 100 percent whole grain,
it's a snack the whole family can feel good about while customizing
to their own personal tastes.
"Orville Redenbacher's has been
popping up fresh, delicious popcorn for decades," said Jesse Spungin, vice president for Orville Redenbacher's. "We've found consumers
more than ever want to control the flavor of their food. That's why
we're excited to introduce Orville
Redenbacher's Flavors as the latest creation that lets
popcorn lovers customize the flavor of their favorite snack."
Whether it's for kids or for grown-ups, Orville Redenbacher's Flavors twists up snack
time – or anytime the craving for a salty snack strikes:
- Keep the crew excited about family game night by serving a
post-dinner treat of Orville
Redenbacher's Flavors Extra Cheese popcorn and root beer
floats.
- Who needs potato chips? Add some whole-grain to the next family
cookout by serving Orville
Redenbacher's Flavors Sea Salt and Vinegar popcorn alongside
hot dogs and raspberry lemonade.
- Serve Orville Redenbacher's
Flavors White Cheddar popcorn with red wine for a twist on the
usual cheese and crackers tray at an upcoming cocktail party.

Redenbacher's Flavors is easy – just pop the delicious and
fluffy snack by following the package directions, open seasoning
