The Veggie Fries are offered in varieties, all of which feature a base of potatoes and pulses alongside Carrots, Broccoli, Chickpea & Red Pepper and Kale & Tuscan Herb. The nourishing vegetable and legume-rich fries are all gluten-free and Non-GMO Project verified, making them a healful addition to one's plate in place of conventional [potato wedges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crispy-wedges). As Cristina Peters, co-founder of Farmwise describes, the Veggie Fries and other products from the company are "a parent's dream — crispy, fluffy and delicious with an exceptional nutritional profile." Farmwise also offers [crispy rings and tots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tater-cheezz-nuggets) that put a better-for-you spin on the conventional versions of the frozen foods. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.5/10 - Popularity: 61% | Activity: 36% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Veggie Fries:** The trend of incorporating diverse vegetables and legumes into fry products offers new opportunities for creating healthier and more nutritious options for consumers. - **Gluten-free Alternatives:** The trend of offering gluten-free versions of traditionally gluten-containing foods, like french fries, creates an opportunity to cater to the growing demand for gluten-free options. - **Nourishing Frozen Foods:** The trend of creating frozen foods that are both convenient and nutritious allows for disruptive innovation in the frozen food industry. ### Where This Applies - **Frozen Food:** The frozen food industry can take advantage of the trend of creating healthier and more innovative frozen food products, such as vegetable and legume-based fries. - **Food Manufacturing:** The food manufacturing industry can capitalize on the trend of offering gluten-free alternatives, expanding their product offerings to cater to consumers with dietary restrictions. - **Snack Food:** The snack food industry can tap into the trend of creating nourishing and nutritious snacks, such as vegetable-based fries, to meet the growing demand for healthier snack options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Veggie-Packed Fries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-praegers-sensible-foods.md) - [Enhanced Superfood Fries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-fries.md) - [Colorful Root Veggie Fries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/root-vegetable-fries.md) - [Chromatic QSR Veggie Fries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/french-vegetable-fries.md) - [Two-Ingredient Organic Fries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organic-fries.md) - [Vibrant Superfood Fries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/purple-sweet-potato-fries.md) - [Proper Frozen Fries Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crispy-crinkle-fries.md) - [Nutrient-Rich Vegetable Chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/root-foods-vegetable-chips.md) - [Delectable Veggie Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delectable-veggie-burgers.md)
