StarKist Co. Announces The Launch of Its New Ranch-Flavored Tuna Creations

StarKist Co. announces the launch of its new Ranch-flavored Tuna Creations as the latest member of the single serve tuna pouch family. Seasoned with buttermilk and herbs, for a creamy, fresh taste, and only 80 calories per pouch, this new Ranch variety brings a classic excitement to any mealtime or snacking occasion. The delicious flavor joins the company's current line of seasoned Tuna Creations pouches including: Lemon Pepper, Sweet & Spicy, Herb & Garlic and Hickory Smoked.

"As one of America's all time favorite flavors, Ranch was the natural next step for us to expand our already delicious variety of Tuna Creations," says Mike Brookhart, director of marketing, StarKist Co. "Bringing together the classic taste of Ranch with an iconic brand like StarKist offers consumers the power to add personalized variety to meals, while enjoying the flavor they love from a brand they know and trust. By delivering this tasty and delicious product to our consumers' tables, we're hoping to provide them with yet another reason to love tuna and StarKist!"

As a long-time fan of the Tuna Creations line, Lisa Lillien, a.k.a. Hungry Girl - best-selling author, TV personality, and creator of the Hungry Girl brand couldn't be more excited about the newest flavor. "I've always loved StarKist's single serve Creations line, and the new Ranch flavor gives me the chance to try out new recipes and meal options, like my 'Ranch-ified Tuna Panini'," says Lillien.
