Launch Marks First Organic Pepperidge Farm Product
NORWALK, Conn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Pepperidge Farm today announced Goldfish® Crackers Made
with Organic Wheat, made with non-GMO ingredients, as the latest
addition to its 30+ Goldfish offerings. Goldfish Made with
Organic Wheat come in three delicious flavors: Cheddar, Parmesan and
Saltine and are sold in 8 ounce re-sealable bags for $3.99, at all major
retailers nationally. As always, Goldfish are baked with 100%
real cheese, and contain no artificial flavors or preservatives, and all
colors are sourced from plants.
Designed for families who choose organic foods, Goldfish Made
with Organic Wheat are 70% organic and certified by the California
Certified Organic Farmers (CCOF). CCOF is a USDA accredited domestic and
international organic certifying agency, headquartered in Santa Cruz,
California.
Brian Blanchard, Vice President, Cookies & Crackers, said, “Goldfish
Made with Organic Wheat expands our offerings to meet the needs of
America’s evolving young families, while delivering the same delicious
taste children and parents have grown to expect from Goldfish. As
with the introduction of Goldfish Baked with Whole Grain last
year, we are always looking to provide wholesome snacking fun and smiles
to all families.”
Pepperidge Farm, based in Norwalk, Connecticut, introduced its Goldfish
crackers in 1962 after founder Margaret Rudkin discovered them on a trip
to Switzerland. Today, Americans enjoy about 150 billion Goldfish each
year – if strung from head to tail, that could reach around the world
nearly 60 times. For more information and ideas about how to
