CHEEMO Perogies- # 1 with Canadians Again

EDMONTON, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - Dec. 4, 2012) - Canada's food processing industry works hard to provide consumers with quality food products that families rely on week in and week out. A recent award confirms that CHEEMO Perogies are one product that continues to appear on the shopping lists and the plates of many Canadian families.

In the 2012 Canadian Family Food Awards program, an annual food purchasing survey sponsored by Canadian Family magazine, CHEEMO Perogies were once again the top choice of the magazine's readers in the Favourite Traditional Frozen & Convenience Entrée category.

"Receiving this recognition for two consecutive years from today's highly selective grocery shopper is a great honour for all of us at CHEEMO," says Edmonton -headquartered Heritage Frozen Foods Ltd. President Joe Makowecki. "We have built the CHEEMO brand on providing consumers with perogies that meet our company's ongoing goal of manufacturing quality products that are tasty, convenient to prepare and value priced."

"With Heritage Frozen Foods celebrating our 40th anniversary this year, this award confirms that we continue to be on the right track when it comes to manufacturing nutritious and delicious perogies for today's families."

CHEEMO Perogies are available in a variety of flavours including potato and cheddar cheese; potato, bacon and Romano cheese; potato and three cheese; and potato and spinach and feta cheese. In addition, Heritage Frozen Foods is constantly observing consumers' changing food interests and their purchasing patterns and adjust their product offering accordingly. Earlier this year, based on observations and market research, the company introduced two new flavours-Country Mushroom and Ukrainian Style Roasted Garlic. The consumer reception to these new flavours has been outstanding.

"Heritage Frozen Foods is proud to present consumers with a hearty option for a healthy diet," says Makowecki, "and I am very pleased to the positive response we are receiving for our products." CHEEMO Perogies can be found in grocery stores and food departments throughout Canada.

Heritage Frozen Foods is a family-owned and operated company that has been providing consumers with high quality perogies at a reasonable price since 1972. For great CHEEMO Perogy recipes visit www.cheemo.com.
