¡Yo Quiero! Brings Four Avocado Cream Cheese Dips to Grocery Store Shelves this Summer
¡Yo Quiero! has released its first-of-its-kind line of avocado cream cheese dips to refrigerated shelves across the US.
“With the mindfulness to balance premium ingredients and fresh flavors with nutrition, these four delicious products combine the mouthwatering decadence of real cream cheese with the wholesome goodness of avocado,” said Jay Alley, Co-Owner and Vice President of Sales for ¡Yo Quiero!.
“Avocado has come out on top as one of the healthiest ingredients to build upon to create dips that have fewer calories, less fat and less cholesterol than other top-selling cream cheese dips in this category. Avocado is the first ingredient in each of our four flavored dips: Spinach Artichoke, Spinach Bacon, Bacon, Ranch and Cheddar and Jalapeno Popper,” he continues.
The avocado cream cheese spinach artichoke dip contains 33 percent less Calories, 33 percent less Total Fat, 29 percent less Saturated Fat and 33 percent less Cholesterol than the leading brands. This better-for-you option is perfect for dipping or topping.
The avocado cream cheese spinach bacon dip is made with real spinach and bacon. With avocado being the No. 1 ingredient, this dip has 25 percent less Total Fat than the leading Spinach dips. Try on chicken or tossed with pasta!
This blend of spiciness and flavor can be used to fill your next batch of jalapeno poppers.
Made with Hass avocados, creamy cheese, bacon and a touch of ranch flavor.
¡Yo Quiero!’s launch of the avocado-forward dips is part of an overall snacking trend that includes smart, relevant and convenient choices. “As consumers expand their interest in ‘Better For You’ snacking options, avocado consumption is growing at a record pace. Over the past 20 years, avocados have been on an upward trajectory. Americans now eat 8.5 pounds per person per year—up 278 percent since 2000. Avocados are naturally nutrient-rich and the array of vitamins and minerals they contain are not often found together in one place,” Tara Murray, VP of Marketing.
¡Yo Quiero!’s Avocado Cream Cheese Dips will be available select at Costco, Walmart and Albertson’s locations across the US.
