Tyson K-12 launches restaurant favorites for kids at school conference
Tyson K-12 introduced nine new foodservice products for school menus, including Crispitos® Pepperoni Filled Tortillas, Whole Grain Tempura Nuggets and an industry first: Chicken Pepperoni. For the first time, schools can serve Chicken Pepperoni, a lean, cost-effective alternative to traditional beef and pork options. Never before has Chicken Pepperoni been available for commodity reprocessing —now, schools can serve it sliced or diced. Other new school menu items, which Tyson revealed at the Second Annual Tyson Innovation Premier in Denver during the School Nutrition Association’s Annual National Conference in mid-July, include Oven Roasted Proportion® Chicken, the Golden Crispy Pattie and Homestyle Breaded Wings.www.tysonk12.com
