Lamb Weston has launched its latest potato innovation; REALLY Crunchy Fries!
Created to satisfy growing demand for unique sensory dining experiences and sustainably-minded quality ingredients, and designed for the next era of dining out, these ground-breaking coated fries promise an unbeatable long-lasting crunch sensation that no other fry can rival, appealing to diners that want the very best food experiences.
When choosing to eat out, 1 in 2 diners in the UK want food experiences they can’t get anywhere else^ and right now 75% of diners crave indulgent foods that offer sensory pleasure as a means to boost their mental wellbeing and make them feel happier and UK operators want added-value products that offer a ‘wow factor’ moment for their guests, whether in-restaurant, takeaway or home delivery.
Lamb Weston’s UK Marketing Manager, Pete Evans, says; “Expectations on foodservice operators have never been higher. Guests want to be wowed like never before and every element of a dish needs to deliver a great quality sensory experience that goes beyond just taste! Our industry-leading innovations in frozen fries over the past 25 years have created a legacy for world-famous potato solutions in quality, taste and heat-holding capabilities, but now the time is right to elevate the fry experience to a new standard in indulgent, sensory potato enjoyment!”
Sensory research by acclaimed audiologist Natan Bauman, MD, revealed that the sensation of crunchy food stimulates feelings of enjoyment and excitement in our brains.† This makes crunchier foods more pleasurable to eat, so REALLY Crunchy Fries means really satisfied diners!
Pete Evans adds; “We set out with clear vision to create the crunchiest fry we’ve ever made, and with REALLY Crunchy Fries we have cracked it! This is a really new and really exciting product that is uniquely different in appearance and mouthfeel, offering an unbeatable fry experience for diners and an unbeatable product solution for forward-thinking foodservice operators.”
