How Ideas Evolve

Living Nutz,Nutz in the Company Kitchen | Tags: , | Date: 10 May 2011 | 0 Comment | 

  When Living Nutz was created we had a few ideas about what we wanted to make. The first idea was that it would be absolutely delicious and that people will really be turned on to this way of eating. I wanted to make the most delicious and nutritious snack that everyone will just love and want to come back for more. Most people can agree on great tasting food, so I knew if it was mouth-watering then people would talk. With the versatility of nuts and thousands upon thousands of ingredients that exist, it was (and still...

Recent studies suggest there are major differences between organic and conventional food with respect to taste, nutrition and  health. For example, in 1 study, organic foods were rated nutritionally superior in 61% the cases tested. They were higher in polyphenols (a type of antioxidant), antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.   The reason given for organic foods being more nutrient dense has to do with: * The dilution effect ( dilution effect occurs when higher levels of fertilizer is used, thereby having a negative impact...

Certified Organic- What it means

Know Your Food Sources | Tags: , | Date: 13 Apr 2011 | 0 Comment | 

We have all seen the USDA label on certain foods- but what assurances does this certification offer. Basically, foods are produced without antibiotics, hormones, pesticides, irradiation or bioengineering. In addition organic farmers are required to adhere to certain soil and water conservation methods and to rules about the humane treatment of animals. If a food bears a USDA Organic label, it means it's produced and processed according to the USDA standards and that at least 95 percent of the food's ingredients are organically produced....

The Truth About Almond Pasteurization Methods

Almond Pasteurization,Industry News | Tags: ,,, | Date: 11 Apr 2011 | 19 Comments | 

While there are four main methods of pasteurizing almonds, steam processing, high heat treatment (roasting), blanching and highly toxic fumigation treatment with propylene oxide (PPO), two of them are the primary methods that are used most often.. These two are steam processing and PPO fumigation. Steam processing is the method delineated to the organic sector of the almond industry. While this is probably the cleanest method of pasteurizing almonds it is still an option reserved for those who have the budget to use machines like this.   As...

  • Hi,
    I just want to let you know that your nutz are out of this world. I let my mother and sister try your Banana Bread Walnutz and Cina-Pecans and they LOVED them. I also love the Chili Pistachios, Curry Almonds, and Pesto Walnutz. The Cina Pecans taste like cinnamon oatmeal cookies, but I put them in a cereal bowl with raw almond mylk and it’s a healthy alternative to the sugary cinnamon cereal I use to eat. Also your Wicked Chili Almonds remind me of barbecued spare-ribs or chicken (which I definitely don’t and haven’t eaten for over a decade). Thanks for creating the best tasting raw nutz around. I got my local store ‘Green Earth, in Riverhead’ to stock them and now I’ll be loading up on them every week. I’m addicted!
    :) Debbie

  • These are hard to believe. Are they really walnutz or are they food sent from the gods…. reminds me of the Banana Walnut pancakes my grandmother used to make.

  • Lip Balm to Die For

    Hello, I just wanted to say Thank You so much for sending my order so quickly! I ordered your Wild Blueberry lip balm and received it in less than a week. I also wanted to say how much I love your products, I found the lip balm a couple of years ago at a little shop while I was visiting family in Belfast, ME, and each time I visited I could not find it anywhere. So I was very excited to order it from your website! Again, thank you so much for your promptness and for supplying such a wonderful product.
    Sincerely, Rose

  • Your lip balm is the best. Exactly, not greasy, just right. My lips are soft and smooth within 1-2 days. Incredible. Blueberry is the best. Unfortunately my health food store is not carrying it for some reason. DT from Wakefield Thank you so much!

  • This is the best lip balm I have ever used, and I cannot find it anywhere in New York City. You should get your product in stores everywhere. Best of luck to you guys and your positive and progressive company!
