Inside Pepper's

Pepper's Newsletter September 17, 2019

Pepper's Newsletter September 17, 2019

Good morning!  Many of you might remember these lines from the theme song to the hilarious sitcom Three's Company:

Come and knock on our door, We've been waiting for you

Come and dance on our floor, take a step that is new

We're a loveable space that needs your face.

And while these lyrics could pertain to our store and our customers, we're mentioning them because actor John Ritter, best known as the klutzy Jack Tripper, would have been 71 years old today. 

Let's kick things off today with a bunch of new items from GoGo Quinoa. This Canadian company is known primarily for it's quinoa (duh). But more specifially, they're known for practicing fair trade with the farmers of Bolivia, where their quinoa is sourced. But now they've added White Canadian Quinoa to their growing list of quality products. This ancient grain has been specially adapted to grow in the Canadian Praries! It's grown, cleaned and prepared 100% in Canada.

You know what else is in Bolivia...the Andes Mountains. And high up on them (approximately 3000 metres above sea level) GoGo Quinoa's Andean Pink Salt is harvested. It's pink because of the natural trace elements found in this salt, deposited there from ancient seas. This course granulated salt is perfect for cooking or refill your grinder and use it at the table.

But in addition to quinoa and salt, GoGo Quinoa makes pasta! And we've added two new kinds to Aisle 2: GoGo Quinoa Organic Chickpea Fusilli and GoGo Quinoa Organic Cauliflower Fusilli! Each variety is blended with brown rice and, you guessed it, quinoa! But both are exceptionally nutritious, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, kosher and verified non-GMO!

Rubschlager has been baking rye breads since 1913 and their signature product is deli-style cocktail bread. But now you can purchase 1 lb loaves of full-size sliced bread! Pepper's has Sesame MultigrainBavarian Rye and Marble Rye! These items have already been great sellers since we brought them in and we think you'll be ecstatic with their delicious taste!

For those of you thinking right now what an amazing sandwich you could make with that bread, we have more good stuff that you might want to use in doing so. Koops' Organic Dijon Mustard will add that bold and spicy flavour that every good sandwich requires. And because they've been making mustard for over 120 years, we reckon they know how to make it right! 

Though mozzarella might not be your first choice as a sandwich ingredient, Earth Island Mozzarella Style Slices are ideal for your next one! Dairy-free, lactose-free and vegan, you'll be surprised just how close this comes to the real thing!

It's almost autumn and than means we'll soon be inundated with everything pumpkin spice! So if you're one of those people who just can't get enough of that flavour combo, you're going to love new Daiya Pumpkin Spice Cheezecake. It's soy-free, dairy-free and gluten-free but it's FULL of rich and creamy delicious flavour and texture! However, it's only around for a limited time so get in on getting this flavour bomb while you can!

While we're talking about pumpkin (and dessert for that matter), we're reminded to mention another new item, just in time for the Thanksgiving season. New Farmer's Market Organic Pumpkin is now available in a handy BPA-free tetra container. Now you can simply squeeze your pumpkin pie filling straight into the shell for a superb pumpkin pie!

From Farmer's Market we move to Farmer Bens, the local company that provides superb eggs to our customers! We've always stocked their white eggs in a 6 pack carton, but now we carry Farmer Bens Large Brown Eggs in the half dozen! Just in time for baking season, too!

That'll do it for this week. We hope you enjoyed reading up on all the new goodies that we have for you! Enjoy your last official week of summer and we hope to see you in the aisles!
