In a world of beverages full of sugar, artificial colours, sweeteners and more, it’s pretty darn refreshing (literally) to find a company like R.W. Knudsen Family that is sticking to the same philosophy they’ve had since they started in 1961: 100% natural ingredients, with no added sugar, artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.

And man are they good! For our corporate catering lunches around Vancouver, Richmond and the Lower Mainland, we’ve begun using these products almost exclusively as they are such a great alternative to sugar-filled colas and other beverages. My personal favorites are the “Spritzer” beverages that come in a range of great flavours such as:

Black Cherry
Boysenberry
Jamaican Lemonade
Orange Passionfruit
Organic Apple
Mandarin Lime
Tangerine
Vanilla Creme
Red Raspberry and several others.

It is truly a great tasting natural product, and it’s something we’re proud to offer our clients.

I don’t know about you, but all this talk has made me thirsty! Enjoy the games everybody…Go Canada!

We use Tater-Ware biodegradable and compostable food service utensils for all our corporate catering lunches in the Vancouver area.

What is Tater-Ware? It’s a great line of products made from, you guessed it, potato starch. These incredible utensils are tan in colour and feel very similar to a high quality plastic, however they have been proven to even out-perform plastic in boiling and microwave tests, are dishwasher safe and of course, will completely biodegrade or compost when disposed of.

I encourage anyone planning a large event where disposable food service items would be required to consider using these fantastic products:

While they are not the most cost-effective option out there, they are the highest quality and most sustainable product available that we could offer to our clients, so for our business, it was an easy choice.
