Minute Jalapeño Rice Cups and Minute Jasmine Rice & Red Quinoa Cups Add Trending Flavors to Brand’s Product Line
Riviana Foods Inc., America’s leading rice company, announced today the launch of two new varieties to its popular Minute® Rice Cups product offering – Jalapeño Rice and Jasmine Rice & Red Quinoa. Like the other 4.4 oz. Minute Rice Cups, these two new varieties are in perfectly portioned single serving BPA-free cups and are ready in just one minute in the microwave, giving consumers that on-the-go convenience Minute Rice is known for. They are also Non-GMO Project Verified, Gluten-Free, contain no preservatives, are MSG and cholesterol-free, and are vegan.
“These two new exciting flavors are part of our promise to continue to meet the wants and needs of today’s ever-evolving consumer,” said Erica Larson, Senior Brand Manager at Riviana Foods. “Consumers can expect the same convenient, flavorful, high-quality rice they rely on so they can spend less time cooking and more time enjoying their meal and the moments in life that matter.”
Both new products have distinct and delicious flavors; Minute Jalapeño Rice Cups offer a tasty blend of onion, green peppers, and jalapeños that will spice up your meals, whereas Minute Jasmine Rice & Red Quinoa Cups combine the buttery taste and aromatic scent of Minute brand’s authentic Jasmine Rice with the brand’s crunchy, 100% whole grain red quinoa.
Minute Jalapeño Rice Cups and Minute Jasmine Rice & Red Quinoa Cups are available in select retailers throughout the Northeast, Southeast and Midwest regions of the U.S. To find the nearest store that carries these two varieties, visit https://minuterice.com/where-to-buy/.
