This week, Progressive Grocer announced their Editors’ Picks for Best New Products of the year. With consumer trends shifting towards convenience and global flavors, we’re thrilled to share that Chili Popnuts, Original Popnuts and Divina Strawberry Jalapeño Spread are featured with the Best New Products of 2026.
Popnuts are crispy corn-coated peanuts that are changing the snacking game. Available in both Original (sea salt) and Chili flavors, Popnuts are air-baked – not fried – and crafted in France with heirloom non-GMO corn.
FOODMatch’s Popnuts are also available as a shipper program, a pre-packed floor display that drives trial and supports cross-merchandising beyond the snack aisle.
Originally launched as a limited-edition seasonal offering, our Strawberry Jalapeño Spread was so well-loved that we decided to keep it year-round! Sweet meets heat in this on-trend compound flavor of Greek strawberries that are perfectly balanced with spicy jalapeño pepper.
Ideal for cross-merchandising with cheese and charcuterie, it also makes a perfect breakfast spread, cocktail inclusion or dessert topper.

National Olive Day
It's our favorite time of the year! As we transition from Mediterranean Diet Month to National Olive Day on June 1 (a holiday we invented!), we celebrate an essential element of Mediterranean cuisine: the olive.
Did you know?
- Olives are a fruit.
- Around 80% of olives harvested are used for olive oil production.
- There are hundreds of olive varietals. A few of our favorites are the Castelvetrano, the Kalamata, and the Mt. Athos Green Olive.
- Many variables affect the taste and texture of an olive: terroir, varietal, maturity at harvest, and curing style – to name a few!
Celebrate Mediterranean Diet Month and National Olive Day with these Mediterranean-inspired recipes.
