More Great Food at the Fancy Food Show

  • Or great packaging. Agua de Piedra, a brand of mineral water, uses only the bottles that would otherwise be wasted when a glass-bottle manufacturer changes production from one color to another. Not only is this a great idea but it gives their bottles an attractive variation in color. I really liked the water, too.
  • The Pacari line of chocolates includes “raw” chocolate, that is, chocolate that is “minimally processed and unroasted to maintain the antioxidants and complex flavor profile of the cacao.”
  • I was surprised that there is a drink based on tumeric: Sajen Jamu.
  • One of the most interesting features of the show was the vast increase in the amount of cheese (all artisanal cheese) compared to all previous shows I attended, such as the show 2 years ago. Perhaps the best cheese I had was from Quickes Traditional, a farm in the south of England. They make many kinds of cheddars.
