Pantry staples had plenty to offer at Expo East this past September, making a statement with plant-based options in every format from crackers to granola, beans, pasta and sauces. These plant-based innovations reflected growing trends supporting global flavors, upcycled ingredients, supply chain transparency and more.

Furthermore, there were a variety of pantry products that were also free from the top eight allergens, demonstrating brands' continued efforts to appeal to a broader audience that might suffer from food sensitivities. Of particular note was the wide selection of products that were dairy free and gluten free. 

These classic pantry staples spotlighted the plant-based trend from Expo East.
