Good Earth Expands Beyond Beverages

Good Earth, a Tata Global Beverages brand best known for its premium, all-natural teas, is expanding into the food category with a line of shelf-stable meals inspired by the Good Earth Restaurants via a licensing agreement with General Mills. General Mills’ popular Restaurant Favorites brand is adding Good Earth to its roster of great-tasting, high-quality dry dinner kits, which includes licenses with Wanchai Ferry and Romano’s Macaroni Grill.

In keeping with the reputation of their licensed namesake, the Good Earth Restaurant Favorites meals will feature 100% whole grain pastas and rices, no artificial preservatives, no artificial flavors and zero grams trans fats. Four meal varieties – Spicy Citrus Glazed Shrimp, Herb Crusted Chicken, Mediterranean Chicken, and Tuscan Chicken – began hitting shelves in June.

“These easy-to-make, alternative dinner kits are a natural fit for Good Earth,” said Deborah Glasser, Marketing Director at Tata Global Beverages. “Our consumers want nutritious options with delicious taste, and they get that with Good Earth teas. Now they can get that with Good Earth dinner kits as well.”

“The new Restaurant Favorites Good Earth dinner kits allow home cooks to prepare a wholesome, customizable entree with premium ingredients and restaurant quality taste,” says Ari Zainuddin, marketing manager, Restaurant Favorites Good Earth.

Restaurant Favorites Good Earth meals will be available in the dry dinner aisle for a suggested retail price of $4.79. For more information about Good Earth, visit www.GoodEarth.com; for more about Restaurant Favorites, visit www.RestaurantFavorites.com.

I am inquiring about good earth Restaurant Favorites - particularly the Mediterranean Chicken which we liked very VERY much. Our local Walmart store had this product for over a year and then it suddenly disappeared and has not been on the shelf now for several months. Walmart has done this with other good products.I want it back on the shelf there or to know what other local grocery store may carry it.
