2021 Best New Refrigerated Retail Products Nominee

Blount’s Family Kitchen Plant-Based Chili

Blount-pb_chili_meal_package1.png
July 30, 2021

Blount’s Family Kitchen Plant-Based Chili was recently added to our lineup of refrigerated comfort bowls located in the deli section of your grocery store. Blount Fine Foods is a 5th generation family business born from a love of food! There is no other plant-based product out there right now in this segment, and Blount is excited to pave the way. We have learned that plant-based is not just a trend, but a lifestyle. For example, 98% of shoppers purchasing plant-based items also purchase beef. This means consumers are incorporating this into their weekday meals. Blount’s Plant-Based Chili comes in a 12oz microwaveable bowl that cooks in three minutes or less, and it’s meatless, gluten free, and has 17g of protein per serving. Clean-label ingredients include pinto beans, plant-based crumbles, and mixed bell peppers and onions, all simmered in a flavorful blend of tomatoes and spices.
