How long do the Taste of Nature bars last?

Not long! They're that good. Shelf life of 12 months if stored in cool and dry place.

Why eat organic foods?

Better for you, better for the environment. See our certified organic section in the features page.

Are your bars certified organic?

Yes. Some products on the market promote organics, but are not certified. We feel certification is a must. Otherwise, it's an empty claim. Each ingredient used in our bars is certified organic, and each bar is also certified. See our certified organic section in the features page.

Your Chilean blueberry bar has sprouted flax powder. How is this different than regular flax powder?

Whole grains are soaked in a measured amount of water and held for a specified period of time at controlled temperatures. The water enters the grain and causes it to germinate. This process causes the starch in the grain to convert to complex sugars, which are slowly assimilated by the body. It also results in an increase in vitamin content, particularly the vitamin B complex.

Are all the ingredients in the Taste of Nature bars organic?

Yes. We use only the finest certified organic ingredients. See our certified organic section in the benefits page.

Are all the Taste of Nature bars gluten free.

Yes, all our Taste of Nature bars are gluten free. Our Niagara Apple Country contains gluten free oats but due to regulations, we are not to claim them as such.

Where are the products made?

Markham, Ontario, Canada.

What is the advantage of eating whole fruit and nut bars versus extruded snack bars?

Whole fruit and nut bars take longer for your body to digest, so you feel full for a longer period of time. An added advantage is that you get to see all the ingredients you're eating – what a neat concept!

Are your bars baked?

No. Our bars are not baked. Cold processing ensures that all precious nutrients are protected.

Are there any peanut-free Taste of Nature bars?

Yes. The California Almond Valley bar contains no peanuts.
