To help ¡Más Fresco! More Fresh program participants identify qualifying frozen, dried and canned fruits and vegetables, that do not contain added sugars, fats, oils or salt ( i.e. sodium), we have developed a database that you can search by product name, produce description or by brand name. To search this database, simply use the “Search for Qualifying Fruits and Vegetables” above. “Search for Qualifying Fruits and Vegetables” also appears on the ¡Mas Fresco! More Fresh Home Page.

Please note that the database does not include fresh fruits and vegetables, since by their very nature, fresh fruits and vegetables automatically qualify for the ¡Más Fresco! More Fresh nutrition incentives.
