I fell in love with the concept of Safe+Fair foods as soon as I heard about them. The specter and threat of life-threatening allergies have loomed large in my family for decades.
25 years ago, we found out that my then young son was severely allergic to peanuts, all tree nuts, all seeds, and their oils, as well as coconut. At the time there were very few “safe” prepared snack options for him. Every meal out, every lunch at school and every birthday party was pretty much a minefield. Contamination was everywhere and throughout his life, his allergies have been life-altering.
So imagine how thrilled I was to learn about Safe + Fair food company. They are on a mission to create healthy, delicious snacks that are free from the top 8 allergens, including all nuts, seeds, peanuts, gluten and more. In addition, the company donates 3% of the proceeds from their sales to the Sean N. Parker Center for Allergy and Asthma Research at Stanford University- the first of its kind. There they are working on cutting edge research to not only find better treatments for allergy issues but also to develop lasting cures.
These allergies affect 1 in 12 children and 1 in 20 adults.
I was eager to try Safe+ Fair foods but was still wary… I loved the concept but how would they taste? Put to the ultimate test, my whole family – including my (now) adult son – loves them! It’s the first time in his life that he can safely enjoy packaged granola, and so far we have ALL loved every item we have tried!
