Quinoa Superfood Spreads

Roland Foods' Quinoa Spreads Mix the Ancient Grain with Pesto and Pepper

— February 16, 2018 — Lifestyle
At this year's Winter Fancy Food Show, Roland Foods launched a series of Quinoa Spreads that blend the gluten-free ancient grain with a variety of ingredients.

Although quinoa is often served as a side to different vegetables, Roland Foods' new spreads put the superfood front and center in varieties like 'Peruvian Yellow Pepper & Quinoa,' 'Piquillo Pepper & Quinoa' and 'Quinoa & Basil.'

As many consumers are now looking to better support their health by incorporating more plant-based, protein-rich foods into their diet, these spreads offer a convenient way to fuel up at any time of the day. Some of the other ways that consumers are eating more quinoa include through sweet snack clusters, ancient grain burger patties and breakfast cereals, which just goes to show quinoa's immense versatility.
Trend Themes
1. Plant-based Protein - Creating plant-based spreads with quinoa showcases the growing trend of incorporating more protein-rich foods into diets.
2. Convenient Superfood Snacks - Roland Foods' Quinoa Spreads provide a convenient way for consumers to incorporate healthy superfoods like quinoa into their daily snacking.
3. Versatile Quinoa Creations - The use of quinoa in various forms, such as spreads, sweet snacks, and breakfast cereals, highlights the versatility of this ancient grain.
Industry Implications
1. Food Packaging - Creating innovative packaging solutions for quinoa spreads can enhance the convenience factor and appeal to health-conscious consumers.
2. Superfood Production - Growing and sourcing quinoa as a superfood ingredient presents opportunities for farmers and suppliers to capitalize on the increasing demand.
3. Healthy Snack Manufacturing - Incorporating quinoa into the production of healthy snack options like clusters and bars can cater to consumers seeking nutritious on-the-go choices.
