Prime & Messi’s Mas+ Do Battle. Who Benefits? Plus, We Dip & Bake.

Taste Radio

Days away from BevNET’s winter events in Marina Del Rey, the hosts discuss the legal battle between lifestyle fitness brands Prime and Mas+ by Messi and why it may help one company more than the other, regardless of the outcome. They also sample a big brand’s take on an ethnic classic and explain their love/hate relationship with an emerging brand.

Show notes:

0:25: When Ray’s Away… So Many Meetings, Plenty Of Time. Ignore The Script. Blow Up The Box. – With Ray OOO, Mike takes the reins and does a decent job as the primary host ;) The team highlights new opportunities for BevNET/NOSH Live attendees, including retail buyer and investor meetings and how simple interactions at the events can lead to positive and significant outcomes. They also talk about Prime/Mas+ lawsuits and the distractions they are causing for both brands, a nut brand with an unforgettable name, how Lex Bakes and Cedar’s are driving Craven crazy (in different ways), and a new NA cocktail that is roundly praised.
