At Natural Products Expo West, Roots Farm Fresh debuted the world’s first organic frozen fry line made with only two ingredients: upcycled, organic potatoes and organic avocado oil. The brand's upcycled organic potatoes are steamed to enhance crispiness on the outside, all the while retaining the nutritional values within. What's more, steaming the potatoes reduces billions of gallons of water waste.
Unlike some other frozen potato products that have ingredient lists that include more than a dozen items, its sweet potato fries boast "no artificial anything." These restaurant-inspired, clean-ingredient fries cook to crispy perfection, making it easy to enjoy quality fries from the comfort of home.
Roots Farm Fresh's lineup includes classic-cut fries, as well as crinkle-cut fries and tots.
