New Tortilla Chip Crumbs To Debut At Sunset Foods 

Gluten, Sodium and Cholesterol-Free “Nada Bits” Fit In Many Diet Choices

Just a hint of crunch and flavor can turn an ordinary meal or snack into an exciting, fun eating experience. That’s the premise behind Nada Bits ™, a new product from Northfield Illinois-based Treforte Foods, LLC, debuting with a sampling program this week at all five Sunset Foods locations.

Nada Bits are evenly crushed, gluten, sodium and cholesterol-free corn tortilla chip crumbs that can be used as a breadcrumb substitute to coat, top or layer. They are Kosher/pareve.  Available in two flavors, original and lemon, these crunchy, corn chip crumbs liven up soups and chili, put a crunchy spin on salads and add crunch to desserts.  They can be used to make easy meals in a cup by alternating layers of seasoned meat, vegetables, cheeses and other ingredients.  Lemon Flavored Nada Bits is a hit at dessert or treat time as part of a yogurt parfait or ice cream sundae. 


The Nada Bits sampling team will be on hand at Sunset Foods locations from Friday, January 10 to Monday, January 13 to give shoppers a taste of two flavors – Original and sweet Lemon.  Locations, dates, and times are as follows:  Long Grove, Friday, January 10, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m., Highland Park, Saturday, January 11, 9 a.m. – 1 p.m., Northbrook, January 11, 11 a.m. – 3 p.m., January 12, Libertyville, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m., January 13, Lake Forest, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.

“This product extends the possibilities of the familiar tortilla chip,” says Alicia Bellar veteran marketer and co-founder of Treforte Foods, LLC.  “We know people use the crumbs at the bottom of the chip bag, as a coating or topping on foods.   Nada Bits is a better alternative because it’s fresh, sodium-free and specifically ground into smooth, even pieces.  When used as a breading, it maintains a satisfying crunch without adding unwanted salt. We keep finding new ways to use Nada Bits.  Our favorite discovery so far has been using Lemon Flavored Nada Bits as a nut replacement to make gluten and nut-free caramel apples or dipped desserts. ”
