Tortilla chips with a twist!

How do you improve the tortilla chip? It’s simple! Infuse it with the perfect blend of hummus and spices. This unique combinaiton makes these snacks one of a kind!

Real Simple

1)    Cut it up. Many people keep a small kitchen compost keeper under the sink to avoid frequent trips to the compost pile. However, if it happens to be near your kitchen, keep a bowl on the counter for leftover food scraps, and cut them up into smaller pieces to speed up the composting process.

2)    Worms are the way. If you’re limited on space, an indoor compost bin using worms offers a great solution called vermicomposting. Don’t worry though, there’s still no mess or unwanted household odors.

3)    Helps to have a pet. After brushing your pet, save the leftover hair and add it to your compost. Also, dog food makes a great compost ingredient since its rich in protein.

4)    Add a hint of lint. Instead of throwing away all that dryer lint, put it to good use by turning it into nutrient-rich soil along with the rest of your compost.

5)    Moisture is a must. It’s important to water your compost, or if it’s uncovered, make sure it gets enough rain. However, if your compost starts to smell bad, it’s probably too wet. A rule of thumb from University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture is that compost should be “about as wet as a wrung out sponge.”

6)    Talk to your local coffee shop. Coffee grounds and tea bags make great additions to any composting bin or pile so talk to your local coffee shop and ask if you can have any of their leftovers.

7)    Raid the office kitchen. Keep a ziplock bag in the kitchen at work to collect coffee grounds, fruit peels, expired refrigerated items, etc. to take home to compost.

8)    There’s always automatic. If you want to be eco-friendly, but you don’t have much time or space, these automatic composters are a great alternative to do-it-yourself! With NatureMill composters, all you have to do is add waste items, and within two weeks it will compost the material for you. Plus, it’s still great for the environment with energy use at just 5 kwh / month, or about $0.50/month!

“My official fave Potato Chip on & for Planet Earth.”

Why can’t all chip companies follow Boulder Canyon’s lead and put their yummies in a compostable bag?

The only way they could be greener, more eco-responsible, healthier, would be to be 100% organic, and gmo-free.

Here’s the first thing I loooooove about Boulder Canyon Potato Chips: the bags are compostable. That represents a sea change in natural products. As a “conscious consumer,” I hate being responsible for trash that goes to landfills and rots, or rather doesn’t rot—it just sits there breeding methane and fouling our fine earth for the rest of my days, and on.

Therefore, my kitchen trash can is the size of my head (pretty big, as far as heads go; pretty small, as far as trash cans go). I hate buying plastic, or anything non-compostable (translation: plastic is toxic, and forever).

As for taste, mmmm mmmm good. The chips are baked, not fried, so they’re healthier. But don’t worry, they taste like chips should: addictive.

One minor complaint: I don’t know if I’ve become wimpy in my old age, but the chips are kind of hard, and sharp, and hurt my mouth sometimes.

All in all, I’ll give these chips an A. Not organic, but natural (which means something, but not a lot). Compostable bags FTW. Yummy, but a bit hard and sharp. I’ll be buying them myself from now on, and I recommend you all do, too.

Phil Lempert reviews Rice and Adzuki Bean snack chips on abc News.

Boulder Canyon Natural Foods

This product is a HIT! I bet you this is one chip that you have never tried it is Rice & Adzuki Bean. The adzuki bean is a nutty and sweet red bean and it is made with rice flour and is gluten free – but here is what I do not understand – the product says Adzuki bean and they even have this logo that says it is made with “Premium Adzuki Beans”, but in the ingredients it says “adzuki beans and or black beans” – huh? This company does everything right when it comes to sustainability and their recipes… don’t use black beans instead maybe because they are cheaper?! Retails for $2.49 – $2.99.

I like the spicy flavor  Boulder Canyon’s Rice & Adzuki Bean Chipotle Cheese Chips and the fact that they’re made with nutritious adzuki beans. Those adzuki beans are naturally rich in fiber, magnesium, potassium, iron, zinc copper, manganese and vitamin B3. Those nutrients, though, are not seen in the chips — as the Rice & Adzuki Bean chips don’t contain enough of those nutrients to be mentioned on the Nutrition Facts panel.These tasty chips have a similar nutritional profile to other non-bean chips, that is 150 calories, 7 grams total fat, 200 milligrams sodium and 1 gram fiber per 1-ounce (20-chip) serving.  These chips also contain 2 percent of the daily value of calcium and vitamins A and C, and 4 percent iron.

Boulder Canyon also makes adzuki bean chips in Natural Salt and Sun Dried Tomato with Basil flavors. Chipotle Cheese are the tastiest.

If these chips had more fiber (which I had expected because of the adzuki beans), more listable nutrients and less fat, Boulder Canyon’s Rice & Adzuki Bean chips could have been a FeaturedBite — an outstanding product we tried and recommend — instead of a TidBite — a decent product that we recommend.

Compostable is defined by three criteria:  biodegradable, ability to disintegrate, and toxin-free. For a material to be biodegradable, it must be able to break down into carbon dioxide, water, biomass within 90 – 180 days. Not only will these materials break down, they are able to disintegrate into the compost without any distinguishable traces left behind. In compostable materials this biodegradation does not produce toxins so that it is able to support plant life.

So what’s the difference between compostable and biodegradable then? Put simply: All compostable materials are biodegradable but not all biodegradable materials are compostable. Both processes need to be in an environment which includes moisture, heat and microorganisms. However, there is no time requirement for biodegradable – it might break down in 90 days or 5 years. Additionally, biodegradable materials may include toxins and heavy metals.

Compostable packaging, when composted correctly, is very beneficial in reducing landfill waste and producing nutrient rich soil. However, there are different types of compostable packaging. Here’s how Boulder Canyon’s stands out:

Our bags are made from cellulose which is mainly from wood pulp from managed plantations. Unlike corn and starch-based compostable bags, the wood pulp mitigates any potential negative impact on existing food supplies.

They are sourced from plantations that have Forestry Stewardship Council (FSC) or similar certification.

Additionally, our bags are made from materials that are certified to meet the “Specification for Compostable Plastics” standards set by the American Society for Testing and Materials.

Best of all, they can be composted in home or industrial composters, recycled through approved organic recycling programs, or incinerated at modern incineration plants.

For more information on our new compostable bags click here.

We figured what better day than Earth Day to introduce the First Compostable Packaging for All Natural Snacks?

To celebrate, we stuffed our office shopping cart with ALL Boulder Canyon Compostable Chip Bags.

We will randomly select one person who correctly guesses how many chip bags are in the cart to receive a full case of the new compostable chip bags!

Guess away… and Happy Earth Day!

Remember: Always check food labels for the words “gluten-free” and for wheat-related ingredients, such as dextrin, malt flavoring or extract, wheat starch, etc.

Celiac and gluten intolerance awareness are on the rise meaning there’s lots of resources available to the public. Check out gluten-free web forums and blog posts to stay updated on new gluten-free news, tips, and recipes.

Boulder Canyon Natural Foods has been producing great-tasting, all natural snacks for over 15 years and is taking the leap with our first blog. The Boulder Canyon blog will be both informative and fun with some inside looks into the life of a natural food producer. Therefore, it seems only fitting to begin with our answer to one of our most frequently asked questions: “What does All Natural mean?” Seems like a simple question, but for most people the answer doesn’t come so naturally.

According to FDA policy, “natural” means the product is free from synthetic or artificial ingredients. The USDA agrees that food can only be labeled “natural” if it contains no artificial flavor or flavorings, coloring ingredients, or chemical preservatives. They also state that the product should be minimally processed. Instead of using artificial flavors, the food is made with only natural ingredients derived from natural resources. You might be thinking, “Well, doesn’t everything have to essentially come from natural resources?” Not exactly. Some ingredients are made in a lab while others come directly from the earth. For example, soybeans and corn provide lecithin to maintain consistency, and beets provide beet powder, used as food coloring.

To fully appreciate natural ingredients, you have to gain a better understanding of their arch nemesis: artificial ingredients. Processed foods are full of them. Artificial color additives are used to make processed foods appear fresh and appealing. According to Eric Schlosser in Fast Food Nation II, the food coloring Titanium dioxide can be found in processed candies, frostings, and icings to make them appear bright white. It is also used in women’s cosmetics, as well as white oil paints and house paints. Not exactly the ingredients I am looking to put into my body. Schlosser also points out that certain chemicals can make processed food taste like just about anything. For example, methyl-2-pyridyl ketone can make something taste like popcorn, and ethyl-3-hydroxy butanoate can make it taste like marshmallow! Well, I’ll let you in on a fact that Boulder Canyon customers have know for years: Our potato chips are from …… potatoes and our oil is from sunflowers and our salt is from the sea. And if you’re eating Rice and Adzuki Bean Chips, they’re made with rice and adzuki beans – not some chemical called mycardboard-4-real.

One of artificial ingredients’ greatest villains is MSG, monosodium glutamate. MSG has been known to cause extreme headaches, reproductive disorders, endocrine system imbalances, appetite control problems, and nervous system disorders. If you’re not careful, MSG will take over your diet, whether you’re eating healthy or not. It disrupts your appetite control system so that even when you’re physically full from eating, your brain tells you you’re still hungry. Don’t let MSG take over your body and make you overeat. Show MSG who’s boss by eating natural foods to help your endocrine system return to its natural, healthy state. Furthermore, processed foods in general do not help build healthy bodies or brains.

We know it’s hard to decipher what is truly natural or healthy, but products like Boulder Canyon and along with natural food retailers are working hard to make it easier. In addition to being a catchy phrase, “You are what you eat” does offer a high degree of truth. Read nutrition labels and scan down past calories and grams of fat to the ingredient list. Look out for monosodium glutamate, high fructose corn syrup, partially hydrogenated soybean oil and other scary artificial ingredients. The less artificial foods you eat, the healthier you’ll be and “naturally” you will feel better.

The Boulder Canyon compostable packaging is made from materials that are certified to meet the “Specification for Compostable Plastics” standards set by the American Society for Testing and Materials. The bags can be composted in home or industrial composters, recycled through approved organic recycling programs, or incinerated at modern incineration plants.

In contrast to the corn and starch-based compostable bag recently introduced by a leading traditional snack manufacturer, the Boulder Canyon bags are made from wood pulp to mitigate any potential negative impact on existing food supplies.

Consumers interested in the greening of their snacking won’t be forced to pay a big premium for supporting Mother Earth either; the cost per-ounce is similar to that of Boulder Canyon chips in standard five-ounce bags.

“At the core of the Boulder Canyon Natural Foods brand is a desire to eat naturally, free of additives and artificial ingredients, while also being good to the planet,” said Steve Sklar, senior vice president of marketing for Boulder Canyon. “Our new compostable packaging should make a positive impact on landfill waste, so we’re excited to see this day come.”

Boulder Canyon is a national sponsor of American Rivers, the leading river conservation organization in the United States. In addition, Boulder Canyon purchases enough Renewable Energy Credits to offset 100 percent of its operating emissions annually. This effort prevents nearly 3.5 million pounds of carbon dioxide from being emitted into the atmosphere each year.

Boulder Canyon retail sales have grown 31% and outpaced the natural potato chip category from 2007-2009 according to SPINS™ Natural Channel Data.

Aged cheddar cheese and just the right amount of spicy seasonings create a flavor that is highlighted by the adzuki beans’ subtle sweetness.

Washington, DC - American Rivers, the nation’s leading river conservation organization, today announced the kickoff of its 2009 National River Cleanup season. Since 1992, hundreds of thousands of volunteers across the country have participated to clean up thousands of tons of trash on America’s rivers and streams.

Last year American Rivers sponsored the most successful National River Cleanup yet with more than 300,000 volunteers removing more than 2,400 tons of trash from our rivers. This year, through a revamped web site, new sponsorships and increased local outreach, American Rivers plans to make the 2009 National River Cleanups the most successful to date.

Volunteers can find their closest river cleanup, information on how to organize a new river cleanup and frequently asked questions and answers at www.AmericanRivers.org/Cleanup.

“People of all ages can volunteer for a cleanup for an hour or a day to help clean the river they live on or care about,” said Rebecca Wodder, president of American Rivers. “At a time when more and more Americans are looking for opportunities to volunteer and serve their communities, this is a great way to make an impact,” continued Wodder.

With corporate partners like Tom’s of Maine, Boulder Canyon Natural Foods, Subaru and Green Mountain Coffee, even more people across the country are aware of this great opportunity to make a difference for their local rivers.

American Rivers is the leading national organization standing up for healthy rivers so communities can thrive. American Rivers protects and restores America’s rivers for the benefit of people, wildlife and nature. Founded in 1973, American Rivers has more than 65,000 members and supporters nationwide, with offices in Washington, DC and the Mid-Atlantic, Northeast, Midwest, Southeast, California and Northwest regions.
