Allergy Info:

Broad Beans themselves are a legume. They are not a peanut or a tree nut. Once they are roasted they have a similar texture and flavor of a nut. So by themselves they are non-allergenic. We produce and manufacture in a facility that is peanut free and nut free. So, we are a NON-NUT facility.

We follow strict guidelines that require our machinery be washed and sanitized before and after each time we make our roasted fava beans. These procedures are called Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).

We also perform random and scheduled tests during production and packaging to insure that we are gluten free as well as monitor other allergens.

These processes are in place to ensure no cross-contamination of any allergen in our plant.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”5597″ img_size=”220×220″ alignment=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″][vc_column_text]

Natural:

Natural has come under a lot of scrutiny as of lately.

We are a completely natural product. The bean is natural and we use only natural flavors. We don’t use any artificial flavors, fillers or preservatives that are found in a lot of snack foods.

WE have sourced our beans from the highest quality producers we can find.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”5597″ img_size=”220×220″ alignment=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″][vc_column_text]

Certified Gluten Free:

Gluten is one of the top ten allergens defined by the FDA. There are certain standards for meeting Gluten Free.

The U.S. standard for Gluten Free is 20 ppm. (parts per million) Our testing has found that we are totally Gluten Free. 3rd party certification like GFCO is 10 ppm.

High Fiber

Looking to add more fiber to your diet? Fiber — along with adequate fluid intake — moves quickly and relatively easily through your digestive tract and helps it function properly. A high-fiber diet may also help reduce the risk of obesity, heart disease and diabetes.

Here’s a look at the fiber content of some common foods. Read nutrition labels to find out exactly how much fiber is in your favorite foods. Women should try to eat at least 21 to 25 grams of fiber a day, while men should aim for 30 to 38 grams a day.

Beans have some of the highest amounts of natural fiber.
