Our new Cruncheros line is loaded with exciting flavor fusions and spicy goodness,” says Michael Castagna, Vice-President of Marketing for AFNA. “Bold, exciting, craveable rolled tacos that are as easy as heat and serve to save time and labor is a major benefit to operators. Cruncheros are ideal as a shared appetizer for dine-in customers and have excellent hold times for takeout, delivery, or catering.”
