"As the snack food category leader, we have insights that show consumers are seeking a wider range of products made with all natural ingredients. At Frito-Lay North America we want to provide our customers with a broad portfolio of snack options that taste great and are made with real food ingredients," said Ann Mukherjee, senior vice president and chief marketing officer, Frito-Lay. "Many of the unflavored snacks in our portfolio are already made with all natural ingredients, and we've focused on expanding our portfolio of products with all natural ingredients to include more of consumers' favorite flavored products."
Frito-Lay's seasoning professionals and chefs at the Frito-Lay Flavor Kitchen turn culinary inspiration into great tasting snacks like Lay's regionally-inspired flavors, such as Tangy Carolina BBQ and Garden Tomato & Basil. The Frito-Lay seasoning professionals created the new seasonings for the products made with all natural ingredients.
New products made with all natural ingredients are now becoming available at retailers nationwide with more products launching throughout 2011. The reformulated products will be easily identifiable in stores with a stamp on package that calls out that the product is made with all natural ingredients, with no MSG, artificial preservatives or artificial flavors.
