Egg white noodles
Miracle Noodle announced the addition of Egg White Noodles to its product lineup. These noodles are available in two varieties: Egg White Vermicelli Noodles and Egg White Spaghetti Noodles. Founder Jonathan Carp believes that this product will lend itself to wellness-driven, health-conscious consumers.
“In response to the growing trend of protein-enriched diets, especially important for aging populations, fitness enthusiasts, and those looking for an easy and delicious way to incorporate more protein into their diet, Miracle Noodle has developed Egg White Noodles that boast 10 grams of high-quality protein per serving,” he said in a press release.
Both varieties of Egg White Noodles contain 45 calories and less than one gram of carbohydrates per serving. The noodles are gluten-free and ready to be used in a variety of recipes. Additionally, the brand claims that the noodles contain prebiotic benefits via egg whites’ essential amino acids.
Miracle Noodle Egg White Noodles are available for purchase at U.S. Sprouts Farmers Market and Amazon for a suggested retail price of $4.99.
Exotic fruit spreads

The new Superfruits line includes four flavors: Blueberry & Açai, Strawberry & Goji, Apricot & Chia, and Cherry & Acerola. Each 6-ounce jar of fruit spread is made with natural ingredients and no added sugars, preservatives, or artificial flavors. Additionally, all four flavors contain 40 calories per serving. St. Dalfour’s spreads are made near Bordeaux, France, and use grape must, a byproduct of the wine-making process, as sweetener.
St. Dalfour Superfruits spreads can be used in a variety of applications, including mix-ins with yogurt, toppers for pancakes, or sauces and glazes for proteins.
St. Dalfour Superfruits spreads are available for purchase at U.S. retailers such as Whole Foods Market and Sprouts for a suggested retail price of $5.49.
Plant-based taco fillings
Tacotarian, a plant-based taqueria concept founded in 2018, debuts its line of shelf-stable taco fillings.
“We’ve been fortunate to have such a core group of Tacotarian supporters that have begged us to come to their city,” said cofounder Kristen Corral in a press release. “While we are continuing to expand, we are elated to meet people where they are and present them with a retail line that allows them to access our plant-based offerings regardless of location.”
Tacotarian’s taco fillings are available in two varieties: Jackfruit Barbacoa and Jackfruit Birria made with Beyond Meat. The taco fillings are non-GMO, high in protein, and gluten-free. The barbacoa offering contains 300 calories per serving and the birria variety has 280 calories per serving. The fillings can be cooked in a skillet or air fryer.
