A Toast to 2007!
At On The Menu we’re raising our glasses to another great year. We’ve had the pleasure to work with wonderful clients and business associates. As the New Year arrives, we’re into our fourth year in business. We’ve gotten a lot of experience under our belts. This year alone we’ve analyzed pickles, salsa, sauces, cakes, cookies, energy bars of all flavors, caramel apples, seasoning mixes, granola, toffee, scones, muffins, dried fruit, peanut butter, soda, herbs, snack foods, ice cream toppings, ice creams, breads, pizza crusts, gluten-free products, flavored popcorns and hundreds of restaurant menu items. Fortunately for our waistlines, our work is not dependant on sampling the food we analyze.
Highlights for 2007 have been traveling to California for the Natural Products Expo West, receiving publicity from the Associated Press, continued work with the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment on their Smart Meal Seal initiative, another year of speaking at the Colorado Department of Agriculture’s annual “Marketing Your Food Products” workshop, attendance at Whole Foods Market Inc. local producer meeting, involvement with Slow Food Denver and Chefs Collaborative, creating a new look for our website, starting this blog and best of all working with you.
We expect many exciting things to happen in 2008 and have a few surprises up our sleeves, so please stay in touch. Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!
