Recent Feedback - Whole Foods Monterrey

Crystalena, the demo coordinator at Whole Foods Market in Monterrey recently sampled Lilly's Hummus in their store, and sent us photos and some wonderful comments!

Price was a huge selling factor as it is the only 12 oz. hummus on the shelf for under $3.00. Lilly’s Hummus sells for $2.99 for 12 ounces, currently on sale 2 for $4.00.

Taste –
The Smoked Tomato won the day as the favorite among customers and team members alike, same as in previous demos. The second favorite was Original, and third was the
Roasted Jalapeño.

The large lettering makes locating the product a breeze, the ingredients
listing could be more noticeable and is certainly worth bragging about! The size
is great for sharing and lasts long in the refrigerator so people aren’t
hesitant to buy the large portion.

Here is a Hummus Pizza recipe idea: Lilly's Hummus spread on pita bread, sprinkled with feta and chopped tomatoes, and baked until lightly crispy. (Yummm!)

Glamour Mag Likes Us!

Here is a link to a recent Glamour Magazine mention of our Roasted Jalapeno Hummus! We're so very excited to have been mentioned in their Health & Fitness section.

"My husband came back from the grocery store with an amazing find recently: Lilly's Roasted Jalapeno Hummus. He's a sucker for all things jalapeno, but neither of us had seen these spicy peppers paired with hummus.

I had no idea what to expect until I tried it, and wow. Sort of smoky, really zesty and mildly spicy, this stuff is off-the-charts good. So good, that I found myself sneaking a teaspoon-full here and there--straight from the fridge.

Enjoy!

P.S. More healthy snack ideas!"

Maui's Natural Foods!

We recently visited Maui, land of enchantment. Not only is it an exquisitely beautiful place to visit, the food that is grown and sold on the island is magical and full of flavor. We visited two retailers which carry Lilly's Hummus on the island, and got a chance to visit, talk with them and enjoy their incredibly flavorful, delicious prepared deli foods! Yum!

Mana Foods looks like a non-descript, old wooden building on the outside, but when you enter you realize you will actually will be able to purchase Mana from Heaven. The pineapples, mangoes, papaya, fresh sprouts and other vegetables they stock are literally heaven sent. Don't visit Maui without stopping into Mana Foods and treating yourself to some sun-soaked produce, and fabulous prepared food items from their deli!

Down to Earth is another great Maui natural foods retailer. Their deli items are so thoughtfully prepared and full of deliciousness. We especially enjoyed their Kale and Edamame Salad, and salad rolls wraps, made with stuffed rice paper, veggies, tofu and peanut sauce! Such a treat. They're another must-visit store in Maui, and are conveniently located near the airport.

Aloha and Mahalo Maui! Hope to see you again someday soon!

Spotlight on Portland, Oregon

Portland, Oregon has been getting a lot of national attention lately. This is the lovely rooftop view from The Nines Hotel, in downtown Portland recently featured in NY Magazine's Travel Section, you can see the full article here.

Last year an IFC series debuted called Portlandia, starring Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein, which was filmed entirely in our fair city! And of course, it made fun with what makes Portland so unique, our quarky citizens.

Here is a photo from Portland's Pie Off ! A very cute pie contest, staffed with officials called Pie Commissioners, and judged by local Portland pie experts and bakers. After the winners have been decided everyone eats the pie entries, and there isn't a scrap of pie left at the end! It couldn't get more wholesome fun than this, and I hope they do hold another one soon!



Portland Farmers Markets are becoming a real tradition here! Lilly's Hummus began at the main market in downtown Portland by Portland State University, and without the enthusiastic feedback from our customers, we would never have proceeded to broaden our horizon! So for that, we are grateful.
