Internet grocer Peapod, Skokie, Ill., is offering its own “restaurant-caliber” Chef Express Smart Selections prepared meals, developed by Chicago chef Michael Foley.

Stepping outside its coffee and baked goods menu, Dunkin’ Donuts, Canton, Mass., has begun offering a Wake-Up Wrap, the chain’s first sandwich featuring a tortilla.

Cheese processor Sargento Foods Inc. has three new offerings that add quick creativity and flavor to any meal.

Spread the word. The latest spread from Land O’Lakes, St. Paul, Minn., is a butter made with olive oil.

Just in time for summer fiestas, Sargento Foods Inc., Plymouth, Wis., added an Authentic Mexican cheese variety to its Artisan Blends cheese line.

The more, the merrier. Or perhaps it’s “the more, the meatier.” Hormel Foods, Austin, Minn., expanded its line of seasoned Hormel Always Tender dinner meats.

Windsor Foods sampled two new additions to its Bernardi Grand-i-Oli line of super jumbo ravioli.

Whether it’s at a retail bakery or the nearest sandwich shop, artisan breads and rolls are popular. And now they are available in the freezercase too.

Although it already comes in its own - often edible -  natural packaging, fruit still is not the most convenient food. In fact, the Produce for Better Health Foundation says 90 percent of Americans don’t eat the recommended four servings of fruit each day.

Just in time for summertime grilling, produce marketer The Sholl Group II, Minneapolis, has introduced a complete “grill kit” line with fresh produce, chef-inspired sauces and a recyclable no-mess grill tray.
