about our proteins
Shelf Stable for Food Security - In order for our food products to be shelf stable and ready to eat, we offer products that are either canned or dehydrated.
The world's oldest form of food preservation is through dehydration or drying. Dehydrated beef (i.e., Beef Jeky) is a protein-rich food snack that has been preserved through the reduction or removal of moisture for shelf stability.
Another older form of food preservation is canning. Our canned fruits, vegetables and meats offer our customers numerous benefits including:
- Longer Shelf Life - Canning significantly extends the shelf life of food, allowing it to be stored for up to one to five years, according to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
- Reduced Food Waste - By preserving food, canning minimizes spoilage and food waste, leading to a more sustainable approach to food storage.
- Convenience and Accessibility - Canned goods provide a convenient and readily available source of food, particularly when fresh options are limited.
- Preservation of Nutrients - While some water-soluble vitamins like C and B can be lost during the heating process, canning can actually increase the antioxidant content of certain foods.
