A NUTRITIOUS JOURNEY “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” —Hippocrates
I
’ve been thinking a lot about this simple, yet profound quote during the past several months as I’ve been on my own personal journey to eating better. While I’m certainly not planning to completely eliminate some of my favorite calorie-filled treats lacking nutritional quality, I am committed to eating them less often while consuming more foods with clean, less processed ingredients. It’s a desire to flip the focus from calorie-dense, nutrient-sparse meals to those that are calorie sparse and nutrient dense. The reality is food is the fuel that powers our overall health and wellness, and we here at Lunds and Byerly’s are committed to being a key resource for those seeking to put more nutritious meals on the table for themselves and their families. Our new deli salads are one example of our renewed focus on offering more nutritional choices in our stores. Earlier this year we introduced more than 20 new salads, many of which feature fresh herbs, grains, beans, vegetables, and fruits. Some early customer favorites are the Farrout Broccoli Kale Salad, Grilled Vegetable Quinoa Salad, and the Greta Garbanzo Salad, which includes kalamata olives and fresh tomatoes in a dressing made with olive oil, lemon, mint, and garlic. Another example is our revamped salad bar. A little more than a year ago we went back to the drawing board to
ensure our salad bar s featured more fresh and nutritious offerings. They now i n c l u d e m a ny seasonal raw and roasted vegetaTres bles, nuts, grains, Lund and nutritional boosts, such as chia seeds and flax meal. At the same time, we also introduced an entire line of Better For You frozen entrées. Each offering adheres to strict nutritional standards, including defined limits on the amount of sodium, fat, and calories. Many of the less healthy ingredients were replaced with flavorful spices and fresh foods such as lean proteins, whole grains, and vegetables. We know there is still much more we can do, and I assure you we will continue to unmask the benefits of real food and all of its wonderful flavors. Wherever you are on your health and wellness journey, we look forward to providing you with nutritious options and inspiration along the way. Sincerely,
Tres Lund Chairman and CEO
