New Flavors of Organic EnviorKidz Cereals by Nature’s Path
I usually feed my children oatmeal and hot chocolate for breakfast, but on occasion, organic cold cereal is a quick solution on a rushed morning. We have tried Envirokidz organic cereal, and my favorite flavor is the gluten-free Gorilla Munch. Nature’s Path has just introduced two new flavors of Envirokidz: Leapin’ Lemurs and Penguin Puffs.
The Story Behind Nature’s Path
The story behind Nature’s Path is kind of interesting. In 1971, Arran Stephens and a business partner opened LifeStream, Canada’s first large organic supermarket. This store quickly expanded into a natural food line founded on the principle of “wholesome foods grown and processed in harmony with nature”. Ten years later, an awkward partnership led to the sale of the company to Kraft/Philip Morris. In 1985, Arran and his wife Ratana started Nature’s Path, which quickly grew to the point that they built the first third-party certified organic cereal plant in the world in BC. Arran and Ratana were even able to purchase Lifestream back from Kraft, something you don’t usually hear of happening when giant corporations buy out smaller health food companies.
