Cocoa Dusted Cashews

What happens when you take a flawlessly roasted cashew, dip it in fair-trade dark chocolate, dust it with cocoa powder and make it a Natural Grocers staple? Anything can happen when you do that, we know because things haven’t been the same since we brought our Cocoa Dusted Cashews home! It’s about that feeling you get when you pop a handful in your mouth. Decadent dark chocolate coating your taste buds, crunching into creamy cashew-ness with a hint of sea salt—it’s pure bliss. Next thing you know, you’re clutching a bag of Cocoa Dusted Cashews on a bike trip in Croatia, and the only thing you remember about how you got there was that first bite. Certified organic and nonGMO, it’s the kind of treat that wakes up your imagination, whispering, “anything is possible!” You’ll see—just follow the trail of cocoa dust others have left in their wake. With our great prices, you’ll save some cash-ew while you’re at it.

It's a new decade, and what does that mean? It means it's time to up your snack game, of course! And the coolest way to do that, not to mention one of the tastiest, is with Natural Grocers Brand Popping Sorghum. For starters, it's naturally gluten free, which is a pretty big deal, and it's high in protein. Also, it's NOT corn, which tends to be a common allergen, but it has all the crunchy, drench-me-in-your-favorite seasonings goodness that we love about popcorn. Not only that, you can use it as a substitute for rice or pasta, just toast it lightly first for extra impressive flavor. Non-GMO, and US-grown, our Popping Sorghum is a tiny, but mighty, delicious snack, so don't wait another decade to find out for yourself. P.S. It loves a drizzle of chocolate or caramel too— but remember—if you try it that way, you may never stop.

It’ll sneak up on you when you’re least expecting it—that craving for something sweet, salty, crunchy—the perfectly balanced snack. You may be in an important meeting, on a date, inventing a composting garbage can—it can happen anywhere, anytime! We know, and we’ve got you covered. The answer is called Snack Attack (Natural Grocers' own), and like everything we put our name on, it’s good4u too—certified organic and non-GMO, without any artificial junk. Roasted almonds and peanuts mingle with raisins and dark chocolate chunks in delicious simplicity. It’s so fabulous that when we finally get around to exploring Tierra Del Fuego, in Argentina (where the peanuts come from), we’re taking this mix to “The End of the World” with us!

Reimagine Your Salad!

For pricing and availability, click here

A salad without dressing is like a dinner party without friends! So is a sandwich without mayo, and most things without mustard because, let's face it, condiments are one of life's tastiest details. Yet, when you're keto, paleo or gluten free, condiments can be a challenge. So much sugar is often hiding in the fine-print and artificial junk that nobody needs, regardless of your lifestyle. Sir Kensington's is here to change that. Their mission is to "reimagine ordinary and overlooked food with fearless integrity and charm," using the freshest, healthiest, responsibly sourced ingredients to bring more flavor to your plate. Their latest reinvention is the vinaigrette, in four Keto Certified varieties. Non-GMO Project Verified, and gluten free— they average 2 grams of carbs per serving, and they're packaged in amber glass bottles to protect the integrity of the oils. Light, bright, and known by some as "the best ever," there's only one thing that makes sense—grab a bottle (of Sir Kensington’s Vinaigrette), call your friends, and throw a dinner party!

How’s Your Microbiome?

For pricing and availability, click here

Here’s a fun fact—researchers from the Human Microbiome Project report that “microbes contribute about 360 times more genes for human survival than our own human genes contribute.” So, how are you treating the incredible ecosystem (your microbiome) where these microorganisms reside? If you’re not sure how to answer that, Solaray is, and it’s called Mycrobiome Probiotics. The Mycrobiome difference is that they’re “guaranteed to reach the gut,” since the best probiotic won’t do you much good if it doesn’t survive your stomach acid. Solaray’s patented, Enteric Shield capsule protects multiple strains and billions of live cultures throughout their journey to your GI tract, where they can get busy doing what they came to do—restore balance to your microbiome. Vegan and non-GMO, they’re free of gluten, corn, and soy and come in a range of targeted formulas. Thanks to Solaray, next time someone politely inquires about your microbiome—you can confidently say MYcrobiome is covered!
