Sensational Spuds
McCormick® Teaches An Old Favorite New Tricks
HUNT VALLEY, MD – The national love affair with potatoes continues full force. In fact, the average American eats 126 pounds of spuds each year**. That’s almost one potato per person per day. Now McCormick is introducing four new ways to perk up the daily potato, with two flavors each of McCormick® Potato Steamers and Potato Seasonings. Tasty fresh potatoes have never been easier to make or more satisfying. Who says you can’t teach an old favorite new tricks?
For great oven-roasted flavor, but with microwave ease, try McCormick Potato Steamers, the secret to lively spuds in minutes. Simply place cubed fresh potatoes, oil, and seasoning in the steamer bag and let the microwave do the rest. Both enticing varieties, Roasted Garlic & Rosemary and Italian Herb, are ready in just 15 minutes.
Anyone who loves mashed or roasted potatoes will fall for two new McCormick Potato Seasonings. Mashed potatoes get the royal treatment with Four Cheese seasoning, while roasted potatoes take a zesty turn with Toasted Onion & Garlic.
The suggested retail price is $1.79 for McCormick Potato Steamers and $1.09 for McCormick Potato Seasonings. Look for them in the seasoning mix aisle of grocery stores nationwide.
For freshly steamed and perfectly seasoned vegetables try McCormick Veggie Steamers, available in two popular varieties: Garlic & Basil and Cheddar Cheese.
