Bolthouse Fresh Carrot Fries Boast a Healthier Comfort Alternative
Bolthouse Fresh Foods has introduced a new value-added product called Bolthouse Fresh Carrot Fries. This product delivers fresh carrots cut into a fry-like shape and seasoned in three different ways.
The Bolthouse Fresh Carrot Fries are available in Classic Sea Salt, Rockin' Ranch, and Spicy Chipotle flavor profiles. They are designed to be cooked quickly in an air fryer or conventional oven.
Bolthouse Fresh Foods' product transforms a traditional vegetable into a format that mimics the familiar comfort food experience of potato fries. Since the carrot fries retain their natural sweetness and nutritional advantages of the source vegetable, this flavor range stands as a guilt-free alternative for classic comfort foods. Melissa Oliver, SVP of Sales and Marketing at Bolthouse Fresh Foods, confirms: "Carrots are one of the most versatile vegetables in the produce department, and Carrot Fries offer a new way for shoppers to enjoy them. By pairing the familiarity of fries with the freshness of carrots, we're introducing a format that fits today's cooking habits while helping retailers expand how shoppers use carrots at home."
