Del Monte prefacing launch of new products with ADA conference

SAN FRANCISCO Del Monte, one of the United States’ largest food producers, is holding an ADA conference with their registered dietitian Laura Ali in order to promote the health benefits of their current and upcoming products.

Ali will be offering recipe samples to show attendees how to incorporate more vegetable servings into their daily intake.

New Del Monte products include Del Monte Superfruit snacks, Del Monte Fruit Naturals apples and oranges, red grapefruit bowls, no salt added diced tomatoes with basil, garlic and oregano, and 50 percent less salt corn.

“The Company’s presence at the ADA conference calls attention to the healthfulness of our fruit and vegetable products­ from our Fruit Naturals products, which are an important source of vitamin C, to our reduced salt and no salt added vegetable products,”Ali said. “These convenient, great-tasting products make it easy to get the four-and-a-half cups of fruits and vegetable MyPyramid recommends as part of a daily diet.”
