We believe that the taste of goodness is about making conscious and thoughtful decisions about the foods we eat, the planet we share and the people we work with every day. Superfood of the Aztecs: We've taken this diet staple of the Aztecs and ground it into a fine powder to create some fabulous new ways to use Chia. Now it can be easily blended into all types of dishes and used in baking. Ground Chia also makes an excellent egg replacer for vegan or egg-free baking. Chia is a nutritional powerhouse with a lengthy list of benefits. It is a valuable source of ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) an omega-3 essential fatty acid that supports heart health and fiber which helps support normal functioning of the digestive tract and can have a positive effect on cholesterol. With its versatility and mild, nutty flavor, Chia is a beneficial addition to any diet. Gluten free. No preservatives. Flushed with an inert gas & airtight sealed for freshness.
