Southern on the Side

Canned veggies have developed a distinctly Southern accent with the introduction of a line of heart-healthy, gluten-free Southern Style vegetables and side dishes from Siloam Springs, Ark.-based Allens, Inc., the largest privately held vegetable company in the United States. Meeting growing consumer demand for traditionally seasoned Southern flavors the 23-SKU line includes such authentic regional favorites as Hoppin’ John, Seasoned Black Beans, Seasoned Blackeye Peas, Seasoned Cabbage, Seasoned Collard Greens, Mixed Greens and Turnip Greens. The suggested retail prices for 14.5-ounce, 27-ounce and 28-ounce cans are $1.15, $1.50 and $1.99, respectively. For more information, visit www.Allens.com.
