At the 2022 Winter Fancy Food Show, Bold Palate Foods will be among the exhibitors debuting new products, including a beet-based barbecue sauce called The Beet Goes On. This healthier barbecue sauce product is made with a base of hibiscus tea, plus balsamic vinegar and beetroot powder, and other ingredients for a sweet, smoky and slightly zingy flavor.
Bold Palate’s Founder and CEO Kate Mann says, "The high fat and caloric content of oil, egg yolks, mayonnaise, and other ingredients found in so many dressing recipes can drag down the nutritional benefits of a salad."
Other interesting plant-based dressings from the brand include the tangy No Cows on this Ranch; zesty Hint of Harissa; and Apple Spice Vinaigrette, a sweet and fruity dressing with a hint of garlic.
