Bumble Bee® Seafoods Teams With Foodbeast For Campaign That Reinvents Favorite Regional Recipes

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Bumble Bee Seafoods, the quintessential tuna brand of home kitchens across America, has partnered with leading food news and media website, Foodbeast, to re-imagine regional favorites throughout the country. With Foodbeast being an authority on wild and unique recipes, the results with Bumble Bee have ranged from Miami-style arepas tricked out with tuna to create an irresistible TUNA MELT AREPA to Los Angeles' iconic street dogs immersed in the Bumble Bee vision, coming up for air as TUNA STREET DOGS. Everything else in between is a guaranteed head turner, all based on the idea of rethinking what canned tuna can be in the hands of intrepid and fearless home cooks putting tuna where it rightfully belongs. The whole rundown of Bumble Bee Seafoods x Foodbeast Originals includes:

• TUNA MELT AREPA, inspired by Miami-style arepas.
• TUNA SALAD BAGELS, a play on New York City's lox bagels.
• TUNATINI & CROSTINIS, an ode to a classic New York City martini paired with tuna tapenade crostinis.
• TUNA STREET DOGS, inspired by Los Angeles' iconic street dogs.
• TUNA HASH BURRITOS, a delicious nod to San Diego's California Burritos.

The line-up includes time-saving techniques that turn into TUNA SALAD BAGELS and TUNA HASH BURRITOS to start the morning off in a fantastic fashion (or any time of the day, really). Didn't think you could flip a Dirty Martini into a TUNATINI? Bumble Bee has and even accompanied it with some TUNA CROSTINIS. Now think about that concept without raising a pinky up.

The Foodbeast collaboration reinforces the notion that Bumble Bee® tuna is a versatile, nutritious food choice with creative deliciousness in mind, and is just following the late August launch of Bumble Bee's newest advertising campaign, Yes! Bumble Bee!, created in partnership with advertising agency The Many, the first in years for the brand. The campaign in its entirety gives viewers the chance to watch along as tuna is used in new and innovative expressions.

With Bumble Bee Seafoods tried and true reputation joining forces with Foodbeast's perspective, what we thought canned tuna was is now a blank canvas for just how much you can drool over out-the-box interpretations — whether it be these recipes or your own vivid creations that make you scream, Yes! Bumble Bee!
