Artificial Ingredient-Free Hot Dogs

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The McCormick Grill Mates Beef Franks Aren't Made with Fillers

— July 15, 2017 — Lifestyle
Hot dogs are associated with having a somewhat unnatural recipe, which is something that isn't the case with the new McCormick Grill Mates Beef Franks. The seasoned 100% beef franks are made without the use of byproducts, fillers or artificial colors or flavors, which makes them a better choice over the other options out there with a long list of suspect ingredients.

The McCormick Grill Mates Beef Franks come in three flavor options including Smoky Applewood, Montreal Steak and Classic, which offers something for everyone to enjoy without having to worry about unwanted ingredients. The hot dogs have been released just in time for barbecue season and are available at grocery stores nationwide as of now.
Trend Themes
1. Natural Hot Dogs - The trend towards natural and artificial ingredient-free hot dogs is disrupting the traditional hot dog industry and providing opportunities for new market entrants to offer healthier options.
2. Clean Label Products - The demand for clean label products is driving the development of ingredient transparency and disrupting traditional food product manufacturing processes prompting an opportunity to move into new food manufacturing space.
3. Ethical and Sustainable Sourcing - The consumer demand for ethical and sustainable sourced meat for hot dogs is disrupting the traditional meat industry and creating opportunities for producers to make environmentally friendly and socially responsible products.
Industry Implications
1. Hot Dogs - The hot dog industry is experiencing disruption as consumers increasingly demand natural and artificial ingredient-free products, creating opportunities for companies to develop new products and compete against traditional brand names.
2. Food Manufacturing - The trend for clean label products means that companies must seek new innovation opportunities to develop healthier products, increasing the need for ingredient research and creating potential for disruption and market growth.
3. Meat Production - The trend towards ethical and sustainable sourcing of meat products, particularly for hot dogs, creates opportunities for new market entrants to develop environmentally friendly and socially responsible products, disrupting and challenging traditional meat manufacturers.
