StarKist Co., a food company focused on healthy, shelf-stable seafood products in the United States, launched five new product innovations that build on its successful StarKist Creations® line of pouch products: Salmon Creations® in Lemon Dill and Mango Chipotle; Kid's Creations™ in Bacon Ranch and Honey BBQ; and a new Tuna Creations® flavor, Hot Buffalo Style.
"At StarKist, we are committed to delivering healthy food to more people, and we are thrilled to offer consumers with more delicious and convenient ways to enjoy the benefits of seafood," said Andrew Choe, President & CEO, StarKist Co. "With the growing demand for healthy and on-the-go meals, we see an ongoing opportunity to grow our pouch business. Our single-serve pouch, which doesn't require any mixing or draining, is perfect to take anywhere – in the office, at school or following a workout."
Research has also shown that people who eat at least two servings of seafood a week have lower rates of heart disease than those who eat less. In fact the Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends eating at least 8-12-ounce of a variety of fish each week – such as light meat tuna, salmon or shellfish.
