Totino's Fans Bring
Back Mexican Party Pizza
David
Hlavac really loves Totino's Mexican
Style Party Pizza. So much so that he started Bring
Back Totino's Mexican Style Party Pizza" Facebook page and generated more
than 700 followers. General Mills and Totino's was so moved by his passion that
it's doing just that. For a limited time (March - May 2013) Mexican Style Party
Pizza will be reintroduced at select retailers nationwide.
Hlavac, a
Minneapolis professional and father of two, got his wish when Totino's recently
surprised him at work with a Mariachi band, a year's supply of his favorite
pizza, $500 in bonus Box Tops for
Education for his children's elementary school and other prizes.
"I couldn't
believe Totino's was actually paying attention," said Hlavac. "What's
more, they actually went through the process of bringing a product back because
a group of us were asking for it. I'm impressed, and now with a year's supply,
I can rest easy for awhile."
"We never
really know how much consumers latch on to one brand or flavor until it's
gone," said Carina Sarbaugh, associate marketing manager for Totino's.
"That's what's so wonderful about the power of social media, it gives our
consumers a platform to tell us how they feel about our products, and we take
that very seriously. We're so happy we could move on this flavor reintroduction
given the consumer response, especially for our most loyal fans."
The flavor was
discontinued in 2007 to make room for other Totino's offerings and to focus on
its core party pizza line. Totino's Mexican Style Party Pizza includes a crisp
crust with taco seasoned chicken and beef pizza toppings including green
peppers, onions and cheese toppings. The suggested retail price for the 10 oz
package is $1.39.
"Totino's was
into crowd sourcing long before it was a trend" said DyShaun Muhammad,
senior marketing manager for General Mills." The Totino family built the
brand in the 1950's by listening to their fans and creating recipes based on
their preferences. The return of Mexican Style Party Pizza carries on that
tradition, but now through the power of social media."

My Thoughts
I love Totino's Party Pizza. I always keep a few lying around the house. They are great for lunch or dinner and my husband even enjoys them as an late night snack. The Mexican style pizza was a little spicy for me personally, but my husband and kids really enjoyed. Its packed with peppers and sausage on a thin crust that comes out crispy every time. Their sauce has just the right spices and the crust is never soggy. When it comes to frozen pizza, Totino's is top of the line. As an added bonus, you get box tops for your kid's school on every box.
