RO*TEL, a brand of ConAgra Foods, Inc., (NYSE: CAG), announced
today that it is bringing the heat of a new sauce to the canned
tomato category. RO*TEL Zesty Tomato & Green Chili Sauce packs
all of the spiciness consumers love from RO*TEL’s diced tomatoes
into an 8-ounce can of tomato sauce.
Available in two varieties, original and mild, RO*TEL Zesty
Tomato & Green Chili Sauce is the perfect way to add spicy
flavor to Tex/Mex recipes such as chili and enchiladas. The sauce
is filled with all the flavor and kick RO*TEL fans love, so there
is no need to add additional spices when cooking. The sauce makes
it easy to add spice to any favorite recipe that includes tomato
sauce, and with such a robust and delicious flavor it is good
enough to eat with a tortilla chip straight out of the can.
“The addition of our new RO*TEL Zesty Tomato & Green Chili
Sauce to the RO*TEL line-up gives home cooks another convenient way
to add some flavor and heat to their favorite recipes,” said Ryan
Clark, ConAgra Foods vice president and general manager, Tomatoes.
“From traditional family favorites to exciting new dishes, this
versatile product can liven up a wide variety of recipes.”
RO*TEL Zesty Tomato & Green Chili Sauce is hitting shelves
at the right time, as the U.S. Department of Agriculture urges
Americans to eat more tomatoes. In the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for
Americans, the U.S.D.A. created a new red and orange vegetable
sub-group which provides a greater focus on tomatoes. The new
recommendation calls for Americans to increase their intake from
the current average of one serving per day to two. With RO*TEL
Zesty Tomato & Green Chili Sauce, consumers can easily add a
kick of flavorful tomatoes to any meal.
The RO*TEL Zesty Tomato & Green Chili Sauce is available in
select grocery chains and mass retailers nationwide, with a
suggested retail price of $0.69.
