New Product News

The Co-op’s buyers are continuously bringing in new products, and we’ve asked them to share a few of their favorites now available on Co-op shelves.

Our Seafood Departments are proud to offer ECO fish (tuna, wild Coho salmon, Pacific halibut) in frozen 6-oz. portions. These fish are harvested following ecologically responsible guidelines established by marine scientists and conservationists, with 25 percent of profits donated to support conservation of endangered species. Ask at the Seafood counter for more information.

Charras Tostados from Mexico (Natural, Chipotle, Jalapeño, and Onion) are back to stay, at long last! A big hit during this year’s Cinco de Mayo celebration, Charras Tostados are crispy, fresh-tasting, corn "plates."Great for serving your favorite taco fillings, Charras Tostados can also be eaten straight out of the bag like a "grande" corn chip!

A perfect companion for Charras Tostados are Mrs. Renfro’s Texas Salsas (Chipotle Corn, Black Bean, Peach, Habañero, Green, and Roasted). These salsas are bursting with Texas flavor and hospitality!

Olive lovers will welcome Divina Olives (Cracked Green, Greek Mix, Mount Pelion Black, and Pitted Kalamata), grown on the sunny hillsides of Greece, and Haddon House Chopped Olives and Sliced Ripe Olives with Jalapeños. Haddon House Artichoke Hearts, Artichoke Bottoms, and Hearts of Palm are great in summer salads and other dishes.

Our ever-expanding balsamic vinegar selection now includes Antico D'Este Balsamic Vinegar from Modena, an exceptional, 8-year aged balsamic vinegar with a velvety texture and sweet, rich balsamic flavor. Perfect for salads, meats, and even juicy ripe strawberries!

Ah Wu Chinese Sauces from Maggie Gin’s (Stir Fry, Ginger Lemon, Black Bean, and Chili Garlic) are a wonderful complement for stir fried vegetables, noodles, and fresh salads. With plenty of flavor and spice, they also can be used as a marinade and for basting your favorite meats and fish.

Recreating a Belgian classic, Terra Frites (say "freets") are a "new" and sensational crunchy potato-stick snack made from naturally buttery-tasting potatoes like European Binjte and American Yukon Gold.

We all need to drink more fluids, and several new products are here to make that easier to accomplish.
