Sept. 14, 2017
B&G Foods’ Ortega is rolling out two new product lines: Ortega Good Grains Taco Shells and Ortega Crispy Taco Toppers.

Ortega, a Mexican food brand of B&G Foods Inc., is rolling out two new product lines. Ortega Good Grains Taco Shells are crafted with whole kernel corn, unique grains and better-for-you ingredients, giving them an authentic taste and a distinctive flavor, aroma and texture. The four varieties—Blue Corn, White Corn with Chia Seeds, Yellow Corn & Ancient Grains and Whole Grain & Lentil—come in packs of 10 for a suggested retail price of $1.99.

New Ortega Crispy Taco Toppers provide a bold kick with every bite. The toppers boast jalapeño and onion slices lightly breaded and fried for a crunchy finish, which can be added to tacos, salads and burgers or enjoyed on their own as a zesty snack. The suggested retail price for a 3.5-oz. resealable pouch is $2.79.

“From moms to millennials, consumers want great taste at a reasonable price,” says Haven Cockerham, vice president and general manager at B&G Foods. “The launch of [these new products] represents Ortega’s commitment to creating innovative products that help bring families together around the dinner table.”
