US-based Pacific Foods has expanded its product range with the introduction of pre-cooked Organic Polenta.
Available in Original, Chipotle Cheddar, Jalapeno Cheddar and Roasted Garlic & Herb flavors, Organic Polenta is made with organic parmesan, cheddar cheese and butter.
Pacific Foods claims that the new Polenta is certified organic, GMO-free, and is a versatile vegetarian, naturally gluten-free alternative to pasta.
Commenting on the product, Pacific Foods Marketing vice president Kevin Tisdale said: "American eaters are more adventurous and looking to grocery store shelves for products that can help them recreate authentic flavors and dishes at home.
"Polenta is delicious, but traditionally time-consuming to make. We've given families a head-start on a flavorful meal that's prepared and easy to customize."
The Organic Polenta is packaged in BPA-free, shelf-stable cartons to preserve its slow-cooked texture and creamy flavor.
Priced at $3.99-$4.49 per 17oz package, Organic Polenta is currently available at Whole Foods Markets across the nation, with plans to reach other natural food stores and conventional grocers.
