Real Good Foods introduces high-protein flour tortillas  

USA – Real Good Foods Co., a leader in high-protein, low-carb foods, has launched its first high-protein flour tortillas, redefining a staple category with innovative nutrition tailored for health-conscious consumers.   

Each tortilla delivers high protein and fiber, low net carbs and contains no seed oils, setting them apart in a market dominated by carb-heavy options.     

Unlike typical low-carb tortillas reliant on gums and fibres that yield gummy textures, Real Good Foods prioritized a culinary-first approach using wheat protein isolate, enriched flour, and beef tallow for pliability, flavour, and performance under heat.  

The tortillas are designed to fit easily into everyday routines by helping consumers meet a range of health goals without added complexity.   

They can be used across meals, from breakfast wraps and lunch burritos to quesadillas and casseroles, and pair well with both classic comfort foods and lighter ingredients such as eggs, grilled proteins and fresh produce.  

“Expanding into shelf-stable products opens the door for new ways consumers can incorporate Real Good Foods into everyday meals,” said Rikki Ingram, chief marketing officer at Real Good Foods.   

“Our customers are looking for pantry staples that support their nutrition goals without sacrificing taste or ease, and we created these tortillas with that balance in mind.”  

The introduction of Flour Tortillas also sets the stage for continued innovation in the centre of the store, where the brand sees growing demand for high-protein, low-carb options across categories such as wraps, snacks, and chips.  

Real Good Foods, known for chicken nuggets, pizzas, and roll-ups available in over 16,000 stores, leverages this innovation to capture centre-store growth, where high-protein flatbreads surge 15% annually per industry scans.  

This launch signals broader ambitions in shelf-stable categories, building on the company’s mission of “Real Food You Feel Good About Eating.”   

As US consumers prioritize protein (up 20% in flatbread sales), Real Good Foods positions itself ahead of competitors by fostering loyalty through quality and accessibility on Real Good Foods website and social channels.
