Good morning! Fun fact: On this day in 1807 lightning hit a gunpowder factory in Luxembourg killing 300 people. Not cool. Talk about bad luck! But it's YOUR lucky day and you'll be blown away when you see our attached advertised specials for this week! We have some incredible prices in every department and because it's Tuesday, the savings start right NOW!
As always, there are many new goodies to tell you about so without further adeau, let's get to it!
There's nothing more frustrating than having a dietary restriction and not being able to eat what you'd like to. That was the case with a kid named Luke who was diagnosed with Celiac Disease at seven years of age. So he decided to do something about it by creating a line of delicious snack crackers! Luke's Multigrain & Seed Crackers are USDA certifed organic, certifed gluten-free, certified vegan and nut free! They're so good, you won't need dip (or anything else) to eat with them!
Another great gluten-free product new to the shelf is Purest Flaxseed Flour. This product from Perth, Ontario has a delicious, nutty taste and is a highly nutritious digestive aid high in fibre and omega-3 fatty acids. Plus, it's made in a facility dedicated to the production of gluten free and all natural products. No gluten, wheat, nuts, corn, dairy or sulphites are in this flour. And it's kosher/pareve!
A wildly popular line of jams, jellies and spreads with Pepper's customers is by Bonne Maman. Now, we've introduced the newest member of that family: Bonne Maman Lemon Curd! As per the company website: The Bonne Maman Lemon Curd is joyfully sweet with a bright, clean lemon flavor. Its lovely yellow colour and rich, velvety texture is sure to please consumers. By the spoonful or as an ingredient, the versatile Bonne Maman Lemon Curd enhances any recipe, whether used as a spread, a topping or for baking. Bonne Maman Lemon Curd is also gluten free.
Hey, if you're into lemons, make sure to swing by the dairy aisle to pick up a bottle of Tropicana Lemonade! Available in Regular and Tangerine, these refreshing bevvies are sure to be a hit with thirsty kids (and grown-ups) on these hot summer days! And don't forget to check out Tropicana Pineapple Mango with Lime while you're at it. Delicious and refreshing as is or pour into molds and make your own frozen treats!
For those of you searching for a more wholesome yet less prominent beverage, you should definitely try Unity Jun Probiotic Honey Elixir. If you're unfamiliar with Jun then we should start by telling you what it is that you're missing. According to Wikipedia, Jun "...is an effervescent fermented health tonic roughly similar to kombucha but feeding on green tea and raw honey rather than black tea and concentrated sugar." This unique drink is made right here in Victoria and the company calls it "Kombucha's wild cousin" and even those who don't necessarily like Kombucha have been turned onto this funky fizz! Look for it in the cold beverage cooler up front.
Kashi Joi Energy Bars and Kashi Joi Nut Bars are brand new to the store and are sure to be hit for those seeking calorie-dense snacking. Energy bars are made with almond butter combined with other ingredients such as dark chocolate, peanuts, oats, cashews, cocoa, sea salt and more! All are gluten-free and made in Canada! Plus, they're in our ad this week at 2/$3.00! Put a little joi in your life with Kashi Joi!
Not all mayonnaise is created equal. That's certainly the case with new Heinz [Seriously] Good Mayonnaise. Made with 100% Canadian free run eggs, this mayo is deliciously rich and creamy. It's the Heinz ketchup of mayonnaise!
And this week, we've saved the best for last. We FINALLY were able to aquire the highly anticipated Halo Top Frozen Dairy Dessert much to the relief (and delight) of many of our customers! This is great for everyone who loves ice cream but not necessarily the calories associated with it. For those on calorie reduced diets, ice cream is one of those indulgences that have to be passed on. But not anymore! This delicious dessert is made with skim milk and sweetened with stevia but it doesn't have that funny aftertaste often associated with products containing that sweetener. Halo Top Frozen Dairy Dessert has less than a third of the calories and sugar per serving of Haagen Dazs ice cream of the same flavour. And it comes in a plethora of flavours. You're going to want to try them all!
We want to wish everyone a fun, safe and happy Canada Day this July 1st!
Have a great week!
