Bard Valley Natural Delights™ Earns Verification from the Non-GMO Project
BARD VALLEY, CA - After undergoing a series of rigorous tests and audits, Natural Delights™ Medjool Dates are now Non-GMO Project Verified.
The Non-GMO Project is North America’s only third-party verification and labeling organization for non-GMO food and products.
“Consumers are continuing to demand transparency about their food and where it comes from,” said David M. Anderson, Director of Marketing. “Natural Delights™ is happy to answer the call by working with trusted third-party organizations to validate our commitment to providing the best quality Medjool dates.”
The Non-GMO Project Verification mark will be displayed on all of the company’s packaging starting this fall, coinciding with the 2015 crop harvest, according to a press release.
The company has also recently announced that it will be rolling out two new seasonal varieties alongside new packaging this summer.
Officially named a “heart healthy” food by the American Heart Association, Natural Delights™ Medjool Dates are low-medium on the glycemic index and are packed with fiber and potassium. Their ability to boost energy, satisfy hunger, and help with muscle recovery makes them a perfect snack pre- and post-workout.
