Del Monte Foods Unveils New Global Flavors, Continuing Legacy of Innovation
Del Monte Foods innovates with new on-trend flavors that resonate with adventurous taste buds
WALNUT CREEK, Calif. /PRNewswire/ — Del Monte Foods today reaffirmed its commitment to innovation with the introduction of new products inspired by the latest food trends, catering to consumers’ growing appetite for exciting and unexpected flavors. Building on its rich history as a trusted brand, Del Monte Foods continues to lead the way in developing new products that resonate with the evolving tastes of modern consumers.
As the U.S. becomes increasingly racially and ethnically diverse and global culinary trends make their mark domestically, Del Monte Foods remains at the forefront of food innovation. The company is responding to these shifts with bold, new offerings like Mexican Style Street Corn and Southern Style Green Beans — spicy, modern twists on classic favorites. These new products represent just one example of how Del Monte is delivering exciting, flavorful foods that tap into the growing demand for ethnic and global tastes.
“Innovation has always been a part of Del Monte Foods’ DNA, and we’re constantly evolving to meet the needs of today’s consumers,” said Greg Longstreet, President and CEO of Del Monte Foods. “Our latest bold, spicy products are not only delicious but are a fresh and modern twist on classic favorites. They cater to consumers who crave both familiar comfort foods and new, adventurous flavors. And this is just the beginning — we have exciting plans for more flavor extensions that we can’t wait to share.”
Del Monte Foods’ ability to anticipate and quickly respond to consumer preferences is driven by its robust Product Innovation Teams, who work in tandem to spot the latest restaurant and menu trends, collaborate with culinary chefs, and partner with suppliers. From the popularity of bubble tea to emerging flavor profiles, Del Monte is always on the lookout for ways to introduce new, exciting products to its portfolio.
One of Del Monte Foods’ most notable innovations is JOYBA® Bubble Tea. The company identified the global trend of bubble tea and the rising popularity of the beverage in the U.S. and introduced this first of its kind offering at mass retail, leading the way for bubble tea’s popularity to expand beyond specialty shops into consumers’ homes. The success of JOYBA has spurred further innovation within Del Monte Foods’ portfolio, including Bubble Fruit® Gel products, which capitalize on the widespread appeal of bubble tea textures and flavors.
“Del Monte Foods is proud to push the boundaries of what packaged foods can be,” said Bibie Wu, Chief Communications and Technical Development Officer of Del Monte Foods. “We’re always inspired by what’s happening in restaurants, at trade shows, and across global food trends, and we work diligently to bring that inspiration to our consumers.”
With more new products set to launch in 2025 — including a line extension of Del Monte Foods’ bold flavor offerings and another series of culinary-inspired products currently in testing — Del Monte Foods is poised to continue driving innovation across its categories.
The company’s commitment to trend-spotting and consumer insights has been the foundation of its legacy for over 135 years, and Del Monte Foods remains dedicated to bringing fresh, modern ideas to the table.

(Family Features) It’s no secret that many grocery store dairy sections are filled with more options today. One choice continuing to gain favor with consumers is 100% grass-fed organic dairy. Nutrition, environmental awareness and animal care are some of the leading reasons consumers choose grass-fed dairy products.
Globally, the 100% grass-fed dairy market is projected to continue growing and some market experts predict annual growth rates as high as 22%. If you’re curious about 100% grass-fed organic dairy, consider these benefits from Maple Hill, America’s original 100% grass-fed organic dairy producer. The pioneer of 100% grass-fed organic dairy took its commitment a step further by celebrating and declaring National 100% Grass-Fed Organic Dairy Day on April 15, which recognizes the positive impact it has on consumers, cows, farmers and the environment.
1. Honoring the Farmers
Unlike large-scale corporate dairy farms, most organic farms are small, family-owned operations dedicated to traditional, sustainable farming. Small dairy farms have been disappearing, but 100% grass-fed organic dairy creates a sustainable, viable path forward for farmers who work in harmony with nature.
This more natural approach to dairy is a “craft” process, favoring small family farmers who are willing to dedicate the extra focus and patience to a better product and process. These family farms are passed on to future generations to grow the “better for you, better for the planet” approach.
2. Commitment to Good Health
Most consumers don’t know the difference between traditional organic and 100% grass-fed organic dairy. One key distinction is the products’ nutritional composition; 100% grass-fed organic dairy provides a 50% healthier ratio of omega 3:6 and 40% higher levels of CLA fatty acids, which may support heart health and provide other health benefits.
What’s more, Maple Hill’s products made with 100% grass-fed organic dairy are GMO free, hormone free and antibiotic free with no additives or fillers. The line of high-quality, rich-flavored products let you experience the organic difference from traditional dairy for a nutrient-dense solution that tastes as nature intended.
3. Happy, Healthy Cows
Cows on a 100% grass-fed diet can live up to three times as long as grain-fed cows and are never subjected to unnatural diets, hormones or antibiotics. More time in pastures filled with lush grass means cows have the freedom to roam, ruminate and graze on diverse, nutrient-rich grasses.
The result is happier, healthier cows, which in turn results in a richer, better-tasting and more nutrient-dense milk.
4. Sustainability and the Environment
Producing milk without grain or corn requires farmers to focus on regenerating soil and the soil life that supports everything else on the farm. In fact, the healthier the soil, the healthier the feed, so farmers have a natural incentive to be as regenerative as possible. Regenerative grazing practices are a powerful and positive tool to improve land and the web of life on farms by actively restoring soil health, promoting biodiversity and reducing the environmental impact compared to conventional dairy.
Well-managed grazing helps pull carbon from the atmosphere into the soil, fighting climate change in the process. In addition, healthier soil retains more water, reducing runoff and protecting water sources from agricultural pollution.
5. Strengthening the 100% Grass-Fed Organic Market
Consumers are increasingly aware of the choices they have in dairy products and how 100% grass-fed organic supports their health, farmers, animals and the planet. Some ways to support this category’s continued growth include choosing certified 100% grass-fed organic dairy, advocating for regenerative farming and helping shape a more sustainable food system.

White Castle Unveils a Bounce House (er, Castle) as Part of Its New Line of Branded Merchandise for Spring 2025
New merch collection also includes White Castle tin lunchbox, pickleball paddle set, playing cards, T-shirts and more.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — White Castle is helping customers take their legendary Crave to new heights with the launch of a brand-new line of merchandise. The crown jewel of the spring 2025 collection? An 8-foot-tall bouncy castle with a design inspired by, you guessed it, an actual White Castle! This inflatable fun house reinforces that White Castle isn’t just about satisfying Cravings — it’s about creating memorable moments, too.
White Castle is introducing a bounce castle as part of its new line of spring 2025 merchandise.
- A tin lunchbox. Retro meets modern with a never-before offered classic tin lunchbox. It’s perfect for Cravers of all ages, whether used for packing lunch, storing collectibles, or just showing off an affection for White Castle’s iconic Sliders.
- Pickleball paddle set. As the home of The Original Slider®, White Castle is well-suited to help with your slide action on the pickleball court. Pick up a pair of these paddles and slide away!
- Playing cards. No tricks here, just a simple deck of White Castle-branded playing cards.
- “Only Beef” T-shirt. Proclaiming “The only beef between us is this Slider,” this T-shirt is best bought in pairs.
- Knight-time craver T-shirt. “Dost thou even crave?” asks the knight who adorns this grey T-shirt holding a tray of Sliders.
- A “Follow Your Crave” horn. This long plastic blue horn, similar to a vuvuzela (think soccer stadium noisemaker), can be blown when the Craving hits — or at any time, for that matter.
- Pint glass. Raise this pint glass, painted with the White Castle logo, and toast to memorable moments.
- Bucket hat. Anyone wearing this soft, wide-brimmed bucket hat, adorned with the White Castle logo, will look super cool eating Sliders.
