WHAT'S NEW AT THE STORE - GLUTEN FREE - OUR FOOD PREPARATION
by Jean Jubelt on 08/02/13As of today, we have available a gluten free roll for your deli sandwiches, burgers, chicken sandwiches, and more. We have had a number of requests - if this item is well received, we will continue to carry it.
We want to accommodate specials diets whenever possible. Over time, I have tried to offer an increased number of "healthy" options. We have available Promise reduced-fat margarine, no sugar added jam and no sugar added breakfast syrup. The "grill butter" we use is trans-fat free; if you want your meal prepared with no butter, please let us know. Our wheat bread and wheat bun are whole wheat items. We fry in canola oil. We have reduced fat, cholesterol free mayo available for your sandwiches. This low fat mayo is used to make our harvest chicken salad, which has fruit and nuts.
We roast our deli meats ourselves: turkey breast, ham, and roast beef. We cook the chicken breasts we use to make our chicken salads. We make our own potato salad, cole slaw, chicken salads, quiche, and soups. We slice our own vegetables, meats, & cheeses.
We bread our fried chicken breasts, pork tenderloins, and Alaskan whitefish ourselves. The Alaskan whitefish is actually from Alaska, not China.
We try to minimize the use of processed foods as much as possible. If you have a question about how an item is prepared, or the ingedients, please feel free to ask. However, during certain times, such as the evenings, that information might not be readily available. If possible, you may want to consider calling ahead to inquire about ingredients or preparation.
Most of our bakery items are made from scratch from basic ingredients like you would use at home. Our puff pastry items are trans-fat free.
We do not currently offer any "no sugar added" items outside of Thanksgiving and Christmas. However, we hope to change that in the coming months.
