In normal years, the Produce Marketing Association's Fresh Summit event presents the opportunity to explore dozens of innovative fruit and vegetable products being launched at the show. In many cases, samples are provided.
With a virtual showcase in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we still wanted a chance to try out some of the new items coming available from produce marketers around the country.
Kingsville, Ontario-based Mastronardi Produce, which markets under the Sunset brand, is adding a new hot pepper to its lineup: a red chili dubbed Yowzers!
The item will join other recent releases Shazam!, a shishito pepper, and Kaboom!, a black jalapeno, in the company's hot pepper collection.
