So much flavor, so little prep time
ORANGE,
Calif., Sept. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Over the
years, guacamole has become a staple for restaurants — as an
appetizer, topper and versatile ingredient used on sandwiches,
burgers and Mexican dishes. A recent Technomic study found that 50%
of operators cited simplicity as the primary benefit to their
kitchen/menu with regards to using packaged or pre-made
guacamole1. In response, MegaMex Foods is expanding its
WHOLLY® Guacamole portfolio with the introduction of
three new foodservice products.
The extension of the portfolio includes three new pre-made
guacamole flavor varieties, bringing the brand's total to five
flavors now available for purchase for foodservice operators.
