Celebrate Día de Los Muertos with NatureSweet’s Seasonal Medley of Snacking Tomatoes
NatureSweet, North America’s largest vertically-integrated controlled-environment agricultural company and the leading brand for snacking tomatoes, is embracing the spirit of Día de Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) with a limited-edition medley of vibrant fall-colored tomatoes.
The Día de Muertos Seasonal Medley
This special medley will be available in 10oz and 24oz clamshells, adorned with a festive seal that pays homage to this traditional Mexican holiday. Inside the packaging, consumers will find a colorful assortment of red, orange, and dark snacking tomatoes—a delightful addition to the celebration of life and remembrance.
A Time for Family and Flavor
Día de Los Muertos is observed from October 28 to November 2, a heartfelt occasion for families to come together, reminisce about lost loved ones, and share delicious meals. NatureSweet’s colorful tomato medley offers a fresh, flavorful way to enhance these cherished gatherings.
A recent survey conducted by Scintilla reveals that 55% of consumers appreciate having healthy options like tomatoes during the Halloween season, further emphasizing that wholesome treats should not be an exception.
Celebrating Joy and Connection
“We’re thrilled to honor a holiday that is rooted in joy, color, and familial connection,” said Daniela Franco, Assistant Brand Manager at NatureSweet. “With every bite of our vibrant medley, we aim to provide families with a fresh and flavorful way to celebrate together.”
To mark this festive occasion, NatureSweet has collaborated with The Produce Moms to craft a delightful Loaded Black Bean Dip recipe. This vibrant dip makes for a show-stopping dish at holiday gatherings, serving as a centerpiece for charcuterie boards or a festive party snack.
Embracing Seasonal Flavors
“This dip combines bold flavors, stunning colors, and a healthy twist to the season,” said Lori Taylor, Founder of The Produce Moms. “It’s a delicious way to celebrate the holiday while enjoying fresh produce.”
The Día de Muertos Seasonal Medley will be available starting mid-October at select retailers, including Aldi, Kroger, Harris Teeter, Giant Eagle, Giant Foods, and Wakefern.
