Scottish cauliflower crisps to hit shelves at 50 Tesco stores
Growers Garden, established in 2019 and based in Fife, is now selling its new cauliflower crisps in more than 50 Tesco stores. The snack comes in three flavours: Black Pepper & Lime, Mango Chilli, and Smoky Chorizo. The company works with farmers across the east of Scotland to transform surplus and "wonky" vegetables into healthy, veggie snacks.

It now includes growers from Perthshire and the Borders too. Tesco said the product was "a brilliant example of Scottish innovation". Marion MacCormick, chairperson at Growers Garden, said the company was "delighted," adding: "Our cooperative of Fife farmers came together with a shared aim to reduce waste by turning leftover or misshapen vegetables into something delicious and healthy, adding value to their leftover fresh produce, which is also supplied to Tesco UK-wide. 'The new flavours offer something a little different, and we're thrilled that Tesco shoppers across Scotland are already getting behind the concept since the range hit shelves this month.' Barry O'Donnell, buying manager for Tesco in Scotland, said: 'One of the best parts of my job is supporting local suppliers and helping bring their fantastic products to shelves across the country. "Growers Garden is a brilliant example of Scottish innovation. By working hand-in-hand with local farmers, they've created a tasty and nutritious snack that taps into what customers are really looking for - healthier, exciting alternatives to traditional crisps.' The snack can already be found in some Sainsbury's and Morrisons stores.
