McCain Foods Unveils New Regen Fries And Bold Campaign, "Taste Good. Feel Good." That Rewards You For Learning More About Regenerative Agriculture And Its Role In The Future Of Fries
McCain has committed to implementing regenerative agriculture practices across 100% of the acreage used to grow its potatoes by 2030 and now reports 71% of its farmers are at the Onboarding level of the McCain Regenerative Agriculture Framework —a roadmap to support farmers' progression towards a regenerative model of farming. Through its Farms of the Future, commercial scale hubs of research and innovation, McCain is testing and scaling regenerative agriculture practices to support farmers worldwide.
To help consumers understand why regenerative farming matters and how a simple swap in their product choice supports the journey to a more resilient food system over time, McCain is launching the campaign, celebrating how great fries can taste while fostering future-focused farming methods. The initiative aims to bring to life the farm-to-fry experience, showing how the French fry has purpose beyond its craveable nature and how an individual choice, while seemingly small, can have actionable impact.
Through the Taste Good. Feel Good. campaign, McCain is asking fry lovers to dig in through various playful and innovative ways to learn more and show their support for regenerative farming.
McCain is using immersive, innovative gaming technology to bring their Farm of the Future in North America to life as they launch a brand-new augmented reality game, "Farms of the Future AR." Through the game, players are transported into a Farm of the Future-inspired gaming experience where they can earn prizes and rewards, including swag made from upcycled and recycled materials, free fries, or even a farm-themed getaway - the more fries you make, the more points you earn as you learn, and the greater the reward.
McCain is launching a "Farms of the Future" inspired experience at Chelsea Market to bring the farm to fry journey to life. New Yorkers are invited to dig in and explore the difference regenerative practices can make over time through fun and interactive experiences, all leading up to the fresh and delicious taste of Regen Fries!
