ENGOBI(TM), First Caffeine-Infused Chip, Grabs 'Ax,' Heads for North Carolina
NEW YORK, May 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Fresh off an explosive,New York City
sampling wave, the ENGOBI(TM) Girls are hitting the road, bringing
ENGOBI -- the love child of caffeine and snack chips -- toDurham May 17-18
and to Raleigh May 18-19. Along with samples of the market's first
caffeine-infused munchie, the ENGOBI girls will give the Tarheel State's
Guitar Hero(TM) aficionados the chance to play the game along with friends
alongside the ENGOBI tour van.
The ENGOBI girls will bring on the noise, bring on the crunch this
Saturday, May 17, at venues ranging fromDurham's Town & Country,
3700 Fayettville -- to the Durham Bulls Athletic Park to the 305 South
Anti-Mall.Raleigh residents in search of a crunchy, flavor-packed pick-me-up
should look for the ENGOBI van Sunday and Monday at local locations including
Mordecai Historic Park and Glenwood Avenue.
"ENGOBI is rocketing offNew York City shelves as soon as it's stocked,"
says Mark Singleton, VP of Rudolph Foods, the maker of ENGOBI. "When we saw
the way typically jaded New Yorkers are reacting, we knew it was time to pack
up the ENGOBI van and give crunch lovers outsideManhattan the chance to tank
up on the tastiest, crunchiest energy source around."
As the ENGOBI girls make their way down the Coast (see their complete,
nine-city itinerary at http://www.engobi.com/engobi-tour/events/), they'll be
blogging from the van each day about the cities they're visiting and the
people they meet. "If the ENGOBI girls, our high-octane snack chips or guitars
don't perk you up, I'm not sure you have a pulse," Singleton declared. "With
ENGOBI, couch potatoes just earned a place on the endangered species list."
According to Singleton, a 1.5-ounce, single-serving bag of ENGOBI contains
approximately 140 milligrams of caffeine -- about 60 milligrams more than a
can of most popular energy drinks. The latest entry in the functional foods
category, ENGOBI will be distributed nationwide through convenience stores and
select grocery stores. High-energy ENGOBI is sold in 1.5-ounce, single-serving
bags, with a manufacturer's suggested price of $1.29 per bag.
