Cincinnati-based The Kroger Co. is featuring several bakery items customers can use to celebrate America’s birthday, from desserts decorated with stars and stripes to cheesecake and cookies.
The grocer also has ice cream and other novelties, such as popsicles. For a family-friendly July Fourth activity, the retailer recommends trying the no-bake desserts with seasonal fruits.
“[The holiday] is a time to gather with friends and family over backyard barbecues, roasting s’mores around a fire and watching fireworks light up the night sky,” Tom Duncan, VP and head of marketing, said in a statement.
“No matter how you choose to celebrate, Kroger is grateful to play a part in so many gatherings to help our customer’s honor the holiday.”
Kroger is promoting itself as “the one-stop shop” for all the products customers need for a festive Fourth of July celebration, including:
- Grilling items such as private selection burgers, ribs, Oscar Mayer hot dogs, Beyond Burgers, shrimp, salmon and steaks.
- Fresh items including salads, veggie trays, corn on the cob (four-pack), snacking tomatoes, red cherries, peaches, watermelons, kabobs and hamburger toppers.
- Barbecue essentials like Blue Rhino Propane tanks, instant light ridged charcoal, camp chairs, coolers and sunscreen.
- Ready-to-eat items from Home Chef, including St. Louis Style ribs and fried and baked chicken.
