For its first-ever flavor collaboration, SpaghettiOs is speaking to adults who love a hint of heat by incorporating the iconic taste of a top-selling hot sauce. The all-new Spicy Original made with Frank's RedHot boasts a mild-medium heat level that satisfies the growing consumer demand for spicy food. As the brand detailed in a press release, "The new flavor continues a shift in the brand's focus to cater to Millennials who grew up with the brand and now make up over one-third of SpaghettiOs total annual sales. In a recent survey of adults (18-35) who ate SpaghettiOs in the past year, almost half report eating the canned pasta at least once a week."
