Many of the bananas we use are rejected by the
grocery stores because of their cosmetic value. What Ipanema Valley does, is pay
the farmers for what is rejected, giving them a revenue for what they would
have to throw away. And then, by making banana mass products, Ipanema Valley turns this so-called "waste" into value. As
a result, food waste is being reduced, losses become profits, and something
innovative and delicious is being shared by the world!
This
is who Ipanema Valley is, and as a snack for after dinner tonight, I get to
try their little banana treasures.
From
Ipanema Valley , I received three flavors of what they call, SquareBananas 2GO. In each bag you get individual squares of the banana snack. You
would never believe in this tiny square there is one whole banana. What is it?
A banana with a new shape, and packed with wonderful nutritional values. They
are the perfect snack for on the go, great for kids lunches, and great for a
nibble before a great work out. The only ingredients, in these square Banana2GO, snacks, are, one hundred percent "Bananas". These snacks are the
new, standard for a energy bar, and a snack for kiddies at the same time. You
will feel great knowing that you are eating a eco friendly superfood. The snack
will last up to one year, a regular banana can't do that. The snacks are great
to keep on hand for any time of the day, and safe for diabetics as well. The
texture is soft and chewy, and really does still taste like a banana. Best part
is how convenient they are. This product replaces the real banana which has a
short shelf life.
The
other bag that Ipanema Valley sent to me, was square bananas 2GO with coconut. Just
saying the name, makes my mouth water. This is another healthy snack, that can be taken
with you where ever you go. Outside, or inside, they make a quick and healthy
snack to grab. Think of it as the new banana! With only two ingredients in the
square, a whole banana and dried coconut, how can you go wrong. Each bag is vegan,
gluten free, has not sugar added, low sodium, paleo, and is has heart healthy
fiber. The taste is rich, and creamy, and soft to chew. You can hide them in
your office desk for a quick pick me up, pack them in the kids lunches, or just
use them as a snack. These are so much better then carrying a real banana, that
would get squished and bruised. And every one you eat you can feel great that
you are supporting farms.
The
final bag in the box from Ipanema Valley, was their squares banana and pineapple.
Another vegan, gluten free healthy alternative to a real banana. These are so
much easier to eat to. There's no peel to look for a place to throw away
when you out, no smashed up banana in your lunch bag, and they are delicious. And
the best part, you are helping to turn waste into profits. The taste of the
banana and pineapple combo makes you think of a banana split on a warm summer
day. The banana pineapple, is as soft and chewy as the others. Almost melts in
your mouth! All the square banana 2Go snacks are so convenient, you will not be
disappointed. In every square bite you get a satisfying taste of a sweet fruit
flavor snack, that could be very addictive. So when you fall in love with them,
and don't want to share, hide the bag!
