Fisher® Has Five Good Reasons to Eat a Salad Today

Fisher® Nuts has extended its popular Culinary Touch™ Salad Toppings line to five with two new blends that will make boring salads a thing of the past. Time saving and delicious, Fisher Culinary Touch Salad Toppings are an easy way to add flavor and excitement to any greens. All feature premium Fisher nuts.

The two new blends, Sweet Asian Blend and the Italian Blend, reflect the results of a Harris Interactive study conducted for Fisher on U.S. adults’ favorite ethnic foods. The top three were: Italian (28 percent), Mexican (24 percent) and Chinese (22 percent).

Salad used to be just – salad. Nothing to get excited about at the dinner table. But with convenient and invigorating Culinary Touch Salad Toppings, salads, side dishes and entrees come alive with flavor.

And, with five different flavor blends to choose from, even the pickiest eaters will see food in a new light.

• NEW! Sweet Asian Blend – Layers of sweet cranberries, slow roasted cashews and crunchy rice noodles, with sesame, orange and ginger flavors.

• NEW! Italian Blend – Aromatic, exciting Italian flavors melded with crunchy nuts and tangy sun-dried tomatoes.

• Almond Cranberry Blend – Sweet ruby-red cranberries are blended with slow-toasted almonds.

• Walnut Raisin Blend – Plump juicy golden raisins with carefully selected premium walnuts.

• Toasted Slivered Almonds – Fresh slivered almonds, toasted to crisp perfection

“Based on the popularity of our first three Salad Toppings, we researched new combinations that would fill out the flavor palette and appeal to an even wider consumer audience,” says Julie Nargang Director of Corporate Marketing - National Brands at John B. Sanfilippo & Son, owner of the Fisher Nut brand. “It was the next logical step to add blends that were inspired by Asian and Italian flavors.”

Each Culinary Touch Salad Topping blend comes in four-to-six-ounce stand-up, resealable bags, with a suggested retail price of $3.49. Each package includes a salad recipe than can be enjoyed any time of day. Dressing is optional; that’s how good Culinary Touch blends taste all by themselves.
