Nature's path Organic~Review


Nature's Path Organic pride themselves in not being the average food company.  What exactly does that mean?  Here is a little info straight from their website:
  1. We make organic food because we believe deeply in sustainability: Arran grew up hearing his father say these words often “Always leave the soil better than you found it." It’s become one of our guiding principles, and it affects every element of our business today.
  2. We are creative and a little quirky: We belly dance at work. We spend break time digging in the corporate garden. We sing in meetings. A lot.
  3. We believe in humanity: We believe if you treat people well, they will treat you well in return. So that’s how we lead our lives and run our business. Our people seem pretty happy with that.
  4. We really, really love food: seriously. We bake in our spare time. We spend our winters dreaming up all the wonderful recipes we’re going to cook up with our summer gardens. We like to stop by the test kitchen—often. And we can’t stop snacking on cereal and granola bars and toaster pastries around here. You’re welcome to come by and try some.



All of their products are organic, no artificial preservatives, additives, genetically modified organism (GMOs) or synthetic pesticides.  I was surprised to find out that they are founding leaders of the Non-GMO Project. They are committed eco-friendly by reducing their packaging and donating some of their profits to enviromental causes.   All that is great but does it taste good?

I was able to try the following:


Whole O’s™ Cereal
I just loved the box everything came in!
Just the thing for the whole-grain-loving, gluten-avoiding O connoisseur—or any O connoisseur really. Full of organic corn and whole grain rice, it's crunchy and delicious, one pleasingly plump vowel at a time. Try some with milk, its various alternatives, or straight out of the box.

Vanilla Almond Flax Plus® Granola
Rolled oats and nuggets of brown rice flour with delicious vanilla and almonds

Love Crunch - Apple Crumble
All our tasty samples to try!
It’s a warm hug of a dessert. It’s a delicious new granola flavor! It’s both. We combine our wholesome organic granola with tart organic green apple pieces, roasted organic pecans and cinnamon. Enjoy a little dessert for breakfast! For every bag you buy, we’ll donate the equivalent in cash and organic food to the food bank, up to $1 million a year! That’s what the Bite4Bite model’s all about.

Honey Oat Crunch Flax Plus®
It's a hearty and healthy granola bar with a honey of a taste. Crunchy, whole-grain goodness meets golden honey and toasted oats for just the right amount of sweet.

Hemp Plus™ Oatmeal
Benefit from heart-healthy oats with the added value of hemp’s quality protein and essential fatty acids.

Our favorites?  Well my daughter ate cereal with milk for the first time!  She ate the entire box within a week!  I have been having a hard time getting her to eat anything, breakfast being the hardest.  I was so freaking happy that she liked the Whole O's so much.  I am going to look for their kids line of cereals, EnviroKidz, next time I go to the store.  My favorite was the Apple Crumble Love Crunch.  I could have ate the entire bag in one sitting.  It tastes just like apple pie, but without all the bad ingredients!  My husband ate the whole box of oatmeal without me even getting to try some.  He said it was really filling and wants to try all their other kinds.  I was worried about not being able to find Nature's Path Organics in my town because we have a limited organic food section.  Luckily, you can purchase all their products on their website.  Overall, everything was very tasty and I love that I can feed my family quality food!

  1. The Apple Crumble Love Crunch sounds delicious! My kids could eat cereal day and night so I'll bet they would love the Whole Os too! I'll have to check out this brand.
