September is back-to-school month, and families are quickly returning to the regular routine of school, work, extracurricular activities and, in many cases, eating on the go. For busy parents, fuelling your child’s body, mind, and soul is your most important task every day of the week. With DeeBee's Organics SuperFruit Freezies, we have you covered with simple, family-friendly snacks that are organic, chemical-free and dye-free. As a Certified-B Corporation, we believe that high-quality ingredients and accountability in business can create meaningful impact and help make the world brighter.
For more details on how our famous SuperFruit Freezies came to be, check out our origin story on the blog!
The Role of Chemical Reactions in Our Food
According to Health Canada, “undesirable chemicals can be formed in certain foods during processing as a result of reactions between compounds that are natural components of the food.” Chemical reactions in food are more common in foods that are highly processed, loaded with preservatives and, in many cases, created for quick meals. That just isn’t going to work for us.
At DeeBee’s Organics, we don’t believe in adding chemicals, dyes or preservatives to our SuperFruit Freezies. No matter our age, our bodies function best powered by naturally occurring vitamins, nutrients, minerals and antioxidants found in the organic food around us. With 100% real fruit and only 6g of natural sugars, our SuperFruit Freezies are the snack of choice for Canadians coast to coast.
