Newman-O’s
Posted on June 1, 2007 by

Since 1982, Paul Newman has given over $200 million to charities all over the world through his Newman’s Own brands. So, eat cookies for a cause!
Newman-O’s come in Original, Ginger Creme, Hint ‘O Mint, Chocolate, and Wheat-Free. The original flavor looks, smells, and tastes an awful lot like a certain cookie we’ve all known and loved, but they’re organic, made with non-hydrogenated oils, and don’t contain trans-fatty acids. Plus, the chocolate is purchased from small farmers, and is certified to be forced-labor free.
All the division’s chocolate products include organic cacao that comes from small farmers in the Talamanca region on the Atlantic coast of Costa Rica and Panama. Some of these farms provide important buffer zones for the La Amistad Biosphere Reserve, a habitat for endangered mammal and bird species. “Growing the cacao in the ancient way means that no rainforests need be destroyed,” says Nell. “We encourage this method by supporting the farmers economically.”
Don’t forget a big glass of organic milk!
