Oviedo, Fla., Sept. 04, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dandy® Produce, a leading grower of fresh celery, radish and corn in the U.S., supports shoppers during the back-to-school season with a variety of convenient, time-saving meal and snack solutions including assorted fresh-cut celery sticks, perfect for school lunches, afterschool snacks, and simple, nutritious sides for a busy weeknight meal.
Pre-washed and ready to eat, Dandy celery sticks can be enjoyed with a variety of favorite dips including hummus and homemade ranch or stuffed with cream cheese or peanut butter for a sweeter treat. As an added benefit, celery holds up well in lunchboxes and backpacks with no effect on texture and flavor when a nutritious snack is needed later in the day.
