Focusing on Fiber for June

Foodservice partnerships are one of the most exciting choices that corporations, healthcare providers, and senior living communities can make to accent their brand, priority on wellness, and cultural inclusion of those who rely on them during mealtimes. With food as the heart of community, In-house chefs are renowned for offering an impressive variety of flavors from across the globe to foster togetherness. In a kitchen that values people and wellbeing, one thing is constant: quality ingredients. When ingredients are allowed to remain whole until mealtime, they provide essential nutrients that might otherwise be lost if canned or frozen. Fiber is one essential nutrient that gets the brunt of processing; this essential non-digestible carbohydrate is found in fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans (legumes), nuts and seeds. Canned fruits and veggies are typically lower in fiber, making whole, natural foods the best source. Our foodservice teams make sure these nutrients are available to each person we serve by following scratch-made recipes focused on the fresh bounty of Spring.
