The bestselling chili crisp brand expands its less-spicy innovation with Mild Crunchy Garlic Chili Crisp, welcoming all to the Sichuan table
LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, April 23, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Fly By Jing, the brand known for bold, transformational flavors inspired by the soul of Sichuan, launches its first non-spicy chili crisp: Mild Crunchy Garlic Sichuan Chili Crisp. Exploding with toasty garlic flavor and crispy bits, Mild Crunchy Garlic puts the “crisp” in chili crisp, transforming everyday meals into a multi-sensory experience. The new flavor rolls out at Whole Foods Market nationwide and on flybyjing.com this month.
Mild Crunchy Garlic delivers the beloved, deeply savory, layered flavor of the brand’s bestselling Original Sichuan Chili Crisp while amping up the crisp factor and dialing down the spice. It shifts the focus from heat to texture, bringing a welcome crunch and deep umami flavor to every bite. Designed for every level of heat tolerance, it’s a chili crisp that invites, not intimidates – equally delicious drizzled over bagels and schmear, a high-protein chicken salad or bowl, fried eggs, or spooned onto dumpling lasagna.
As consumers gravitate toward layered flavor and texture, Mild Crunchy Garlic proves that turning down the heat can turn up complexity. With “crunchy” appearing on 60% of U.S. restaurant menus, The New York Times naming texture a top food trend for 2026, and #crunchtok surpassing 1.5 billion views on TikTok, the timing couldn’t be better for a bold, high-quality, heat-free sauce for all.
“Sichuan cuisine is so much more than just heat—it’s about texture, depth, and layers of flavor. With Mild Crunchy Garlic Chili Crisp, we wanted to create something that everyone can enjoy, whether you love spice or not,” says Fly By Jing Founder and CEO Jing Gao. “I love that it adds crunch and flavor to everything from noodles to sandwiches. My toddler Kai is already a big fan of the crunchy texture, and that’s exactly the feeling I want for families and flavor explorers alike: bold flavor that invites everyone to the table.”
The launch builds on Fly By Jing’s mission to bring Sichuan flavors to more people, following the success of recent less-spicy releases—Classic Soy, Creamy Sesame, and Roasted Garlic Noodles—which have collectively driven 20% of new direct-to-consumer customer growth. Mild Crunchy Garlic continues that momentum, creating new occasions for shared meals across ages and spice tolerances.
With Mild Crunchy Garlic Sichuan Chili Crisp, the brand continues to push the boundaries of what Sichuan flavor can be, proving that bold, deeply layered taste is not defined by heat alone.
