SALINAS, CA - Leafy greens have the power to elevate any plate. From being the star of the show to landing a supporting role, different lettuce varieties offer different advantages to the chefs who use them. Giving operators a convenient option back of house, Taylor Farms has introduced the Taylor Toppers product line featuring the Perfect Fit, Deli Gem, and Whole Leaf Singles.

“At Taylor Farms, we’re always looking for new, innovative ingredients that increase freshness and flavor while assuring supply and convenience to our customer partners,” said Lisa Hearne, Senior Vice President of Foodservice Sales and Marketing. “We’re looking forward to introducing this new product line to meet the growing demand for a variety of fresh sandwich and burger solutions.”

The Perfect Leaf is a hybrid of green leaf and Iceberg that delivers a consistently round shape and frilled edges to fit perfectly atop a hamburger. This variety also presents less rib and a higher heat tolerance than traditional lettuces, producing a fresh, high-quality product.

The Deli Gem Leaf, Green Leaf, and Romaine Leaf Singles truly turn Taylor Farms into a one-stop shop for all foodservice operators’ burger or sandwich leaf applications. The Green and Romaine Leaf singles are individually packed to offer convenience and streamlining prep to increase operator efficiencies, a press release stated.

The Taylor Topper line will make its first debut at the 2023 International Fresh Produce Association’s Foodservice Conference at booth #612.
