Paterson, New Jersey – January 9, 2019 – This weekend Kontos Foods, Inc., a U.S.-based manufacturer and distributor of traditional artisan breads and Mediterranean specialty foods, is headed to San Francisco to attend the Specialty Food Association’s Winter Fancy Food Show. In addition to its flatbread, which includes over 60 varieties, Kontos Foods will be showcasing more than a dozen specialty food products. The Fancy Food Show takes place January 13- 15 at Moscone Center, San Francisco. Visit Kontos Foods at Booth #7111.
Featured products include the brand new Toasted Tidbits™, made from sliced Kontos’ signature GYRO Bread, toasted into delicious Tidbits™. They’re a perfect low-calorie snack, but are also ideal for dips, soups, snacks, and salads. Other offerings at the Kontos Booth will include desserts such as Classic and Assorted Baklava, and appetizers such as Spanakopita and Tyropita. Kontos’ popular Pita and flatbreads will also be available, from its Pocket-Less Pita® and Pre-Oiled GYRO Bread to Pre-Grilled Cocktail Flatbreads and Pre-Grilled Mini Oval Flatbreads. For consumers looking for a healthier flatbread, Kontos will be showcasing its Greek Lifestyle Flatbread, which has half the carbs and almost twice the protein of traditional flatbread.

Open only to qualified buyers and industry professionals, the Winter Fancy Food Show attracts more than 1,400 exhibitors from around the globe, who are expected show off more than 80,000 specialty food and beverages products, from confections, cheese and coffee to snacks, spices, ethnic, natural and organic goods.
