Deli Delights
Dietz & Watson has given the deli snack pack a better-for-you makeover with a line of four protein-packed grab-and-go SKUS containing heart-healthy items matched with premium Dietz & Watson meats and artisan cheeses. A sophisticated but fun take on charcuterie for the whole family, Dietz & Dats consists of Hot Salami & Fontina, offering mingled heat and tanginess accompanied by sweet cranberries and crunchy melba toast; Milano Salami & Asiago, a sweet and tangy blend complemented by slightly salty almonds and melba toast; Chorizo & Pepper Jack, a smoky, spicy combo paired with sweet dried mangos and melba toast; and Dried Salami & Provolone, a savory, mildly tangy taste experience alongside cashews and melba toast. None of the varieties has any artificial flavors, preservatives or MSG. The savory, sweet stackable Dietz & Dats packs retail for a suggested $4.99 each. https://www.dietzandwatson.com/
