Pat "Deep Dish" Bertoletti Triumphs With Fourth Win At Fifth Annual La Costeña Jalapeño Eating Championship Challenge

Bertoletti Breaks Record by Eating 275 Whole Jalapeños in Eight Minutes

_________________________

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, May 3, 2011- Pat "Deep Dish" Bertoletti claimed victory for the fourth time at the fifth annual La Costeña "Feel the Heat" Jalapeño Eating Championship Challenge. Bertoletti, currently the second world ranked competitive eater in the sanctioned sport of Major League Eating (MLE), ate 275 whole jalapeños in eight minutes. The fifth annual challenge was a highly anticipated rematch between the reigning champ and his fiery arch nemesis: five-foot-tall, 100-pound Sonya "The Black Widow" Thomas. Thomas is the only other competitive eater, besides Bertoletti, who has won La Costeña's grueling competition.

Stems were removed from the jalapeños this year for the first time in the history of the eight minute contest. Bertoletti benefitted from this update and ended up shattering his 2010 record of 225 jalapeños to his current 2011 record of 275 jalapeños. "My goal coming in today was just to dominate and beat the record. That's what I came here to do," said champion Bertoletti. "It was a great day. The jalapeños were fast. La Costeña always makes delicious jalapeños and that makes it easier."

Thomas placed second by consuming 224 jalapeños, Eric "The Red" Denmark placed third by eating 121 jalapeños, and San Antonio local Alexander Hernandez ranked fourth, having eaten 113 jalapeños. "In this eight minute competition Pat Bertoletti ate 50 whole La Costeña jalapeños more this year than last year. 275-it was nothing short of phenomenal," said George Shea, MLE chairman and emcee. "When Pat was eating, his hands were a blur. You couldn't tell where the jalapeños ended and the fingers began."

"During the past five years, La Costeña's "Feel the Heat" Jalapeño Eating Championship Challenge has ignited one of the most dramatic rivalries in competitive eating and organized sport between Pat and Sonya. When they clash in this competition, they push themselves and each other to a higher level of performance," said George Shea, chairman of MLE. "Appropriately we witnessed that today at the fifth annual challenge."

"By removing the stems we upped the ante in this contest and gave the eaters better chances to devour even more jalapeños," said Jessica Gonzalez, brand manager for La Costeña. "What is even more impressive is that all of the eaters ate more than 1,300 jalapeños combined during this grueling competition."

To continually recognize both the skill and perseverance required to be among the top four competitors in the challenge, La Costeña had increased the event's prize offering for 2011 to a $6,250 cash purse. The champion was awarded $3,000, while the second- through fourth-place finishers will be awarded $2,000, $750 and $500, respectively.

La Costeña's The Spice is Right Tour Pledges Flavor for Every Liking
The Spice is Right Chefs Travel the Country Showcasing Easy Solutions to Spice Up Everyday Meals

San Antonio, TX, May 2, 2010 - To meet its mission to teach busy families how to turn everyday meals into full-flavored dishes with just the right amount of spice, La Costeña has launched The Spice is Right Tour. The tour --an entertaining, educational and recipe tasting experience-- will be featured at some of the nation's most popular family festivals, and is sponsored by La Costeña, manufacturer of America's number one selling jalapeño.

At each tour stop, La Costeña's Spice is Right chefs will demonstrate affordable and easy solutions for satisfying everyone's individual preference for spice, heat and flavor simply by selecting the right type of pepper, salsa or bean.

"People always ask us which spice is right for them and their family's individual preferences. For example, they want to know the difference between Jalapeño, Serrano and Chipotle peppers or Taquera and Ranchera salsas, and which option to use in what type of food," explained Chef Steven Henao. "That's why the role of the Spice is Right chefs is to educate people on how to achieve the flavorful spice level just right for them and their family. We'll also show busy consumers how easy it is to spice up the ordinary - how to add the right type of peppers, beans and salsas to spice up favorite, everyday foods."

The Spice is Right Tour will also feature recipe samplings, games, contests and prizes. Additionally, cooking videos that demonstrate easy meal solutions and a downloadable Spice is Right reference guide that charts the spice levels of different types of peppers, salsas, beans and sauces are featured online at www.LaCostenaUSA.com.
$100 Award for "Spicy Sport" Winner
In each city the tour visits, La Costeña will award $100 to the person whose taste buds can best endure the "spicy sport" of speed eating whole jalapeños for one minute. A Chicago man who ate 22 whole La Costeña pickled jalapeños in 2009 holds the record. For more information about the local speed eating competition near you, visit www.LaCostenaUSA.com. Competitors register to participate on-site the day of the competition.

Fiery Feat Funds Local Firehouses
Continuing with its tradition of serving local communities, La Costeña has pledged to donate more than $5,000 to firehouses across the country.

Patricia Lopez was born in Venice, California, but her family and her happiest memories come from Sinaloa. Her passion for Mexican cuisine started when she was just a little girl and used to spend hours in her grandma’s kitchen. She was always eager to help and learn as much as she could. She would carefully look at everything her grandmother prepared, the ingredients she chose, the way she cut, peeled or even beat. She learned all of her secrets, those that made a meal taste unique and irreplaceable: mom’s home cooking. Now, as a grown up, she has managed to polish her culinary virtues and there are still aromas that take her back to her childhood, specially to that wooden table that her grandmother used for years to prepare meals for the entire family. Additionally, she likes to dance and play sports. But most of all, Patricia enjoys spending time in the kitchen preparing home cooked meals just like her grandma.

About Us

Our Mission: To provide families with high-quality canned foods that preserve the fresh flavor of Mexican cuisine, facilitate preparation, and are available at an affordable price to consumers.

Our History: The history of Conservas La Costeña, a 100% Mexican company present in several countries around the world, dates back to the year 1923, when Don Vicente López Resines acquired a grocery store called La Costeña and started preparing "Serrano" chilies and "largo" chilies in vinegar, which he sold in 44 lbs cans.

In 1937, he started making his own cans manually, thereby opening up a new chapter in the company's history.

In 1948, he founded a new production plant in Mexico City that covered an area of 1.2 acres. The plant had forklift trucks and new distribution units, which gave rise to a substantial increase not only in production, but also in distribution.

Three years later, in 1951, he installed the first automatic production line for 6.6 lbs cans, and by 1955 he also had one for making 3.7 oz cans. At around this time, La Costeña started distributing its products in other parts of the country.

In 1971 La Costeña moved to Ecatepec, in Estado de México, where it had a plant covering an area of 44.5 acres. Thanks to its continuous expansion program, it soon grew to 61.7 acres.

The year 1975 was a decisive one for the company, as it witnessed the launching of foreign trade with the United States - where it currently enjoys solid presence - to satisfy the requirements of the Hispanic market, which is one of the great strengths of La Costeña.

After several years of efforts to achieve constant growth, in 1991 La Costeña opened a canning plant in Sinaloa that produces tomato puree, vegetables, and other products. Three years later, in 1994, it opened another plant in San Luis Potosí, to achieve its resource optimization and exportation targets.

Work on the construction of a fully automatic and robotized warehouse, one of only a handful in Mexico, began in 2006. This modern approach afforded the company greater storage capacity and allowed it to automatically restock traditional shelves.

La Costeña uses cutting edge technology, and each year invests in what really matters: quality, flavor and distribution. In Mexico the brand's name is synonymous with pride for its presence all over the world, where it constantly strives to satisfy all its consumers.
