In partnership with Sunsweet Growers Inc., JTM Food Group has created three new meat products with no caramel coloring and cleaner labels by utilizing plum fiber and plum powder. For the thousands of schools that JTM serves across the country, the clean label patties fulfill a growing desire for menu items with natural, basic ingredients that still maintain shelf life, flavor, and attractive appearance.
Schools are now able to utilize three plum-enhanced proteins in the creation of their menu offerings: an All-Beef Patty, All-Pork Sausage Patty, and a Beef Patty with Mushrooms. Each of the fully cooked products uses plum fiber and powder. They contain no caramel coloring, are allergen-free, and have shorter, cleaner labels.
n the coming months, JTM plans to add to the plum-enhanced product line and will roll out a ground beef crumble and a meatball for the 2014-2015 school year.
Each 2.25 oz. patty provides 1.75 oz. M/MA and 1/8 c. other vegetable. Packed in 6/5-pound bags. No caramel coloring. Allergen free and clean label.
