The Castroville, CA, firm calls its innovative line of products Season & Steam, claiming it’s the only steam bag that lets consumers pre-season the vegetables and then reseal them by way of a zipper reclosure feature before steaming them in the bag. The Steamfast technology is from Mondi. Preceding the introduction of the Sweet Baby Broccoli, the technology has been used by Ocean Mist for artichokes and for three Brussels sprouts items: SuperShreds Super Food, Quick Cook Sprouts, and whole Brussels sprouts.
