It's Wallpaper Wednesday...and we are talking about our cutting fresh solutions with FreshPoint FreshCuts®!
Pineapples are known to have a lot of waste: there’s the core, the shell, and the leaves, all of which you pay for, and depending on who on your team is doing the prep, there can be some significant waste left behind. That is money down the drain.
So, instead of trying to find uses or an outlet for this waste, we can cut the pineapple for you, whether that is cubed, or any other cut you need. 🍍
Add a little color to your workspace with this vibrant desktop wallpaper. Click the link to download the wallpaper and then scan to see this month’s recipe idea of our take on Sweet & Sour Pork featuring FreshCuts cubed pineapples. Coupled with herbaceous veggies and the brightness of ginger, this is a match made in heaven when combined with the rich flavor of pork butt from Buckhead Meat & Seafood and Sweet and Sour sauce from European Imports. 🍍
