Espresso was created so people could get a quick coffee fix! But before we get into why, what are espresso beans?? I thought espresso was just some kind of coffee….They’re really just…*suspense*…coffee beans, usually Arabica. Espresso is a way of making coffee quicker by using pressure. An Italian, Luigi Bezzerea, invented this “espresso” machine so [...]

A magnificent fruit, discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it Apple, it which of course in German means “far from Doctor”. No, we’re just kidding. But the Americans do believe that Johnny “Appleseed” Chapman brought this bad fruit to the Americas (well he did plant tens of thousands in the American North East). [...]

Begrudgingly, I blog about our trip to the box factory. Knowing what an energy intensive process it is and how environmentally harmful it can potentially be, I can’t say I was excited. But was I pleasantly surprised! They had an enormous solar energy field to feed their machines, and a lot of the paper they [...]

Well, almost! Though we think it’s better to enjoy these great grains than waste them (we’ve searched all over to find the best of them after all). We’ve been inventing and testing some new muesli mixes and muesli products here, so after a winter of hibernation and reflection we think we have the perfect new [...]

Muesli for kids!!! Who could have thought of it? A lot of people probably did, but do you hear about it? No, because kids only want to eat tasty things for breakfast and we mingled just that: a muesli kids adore. It was not easy, but we succeeded with the help of our nutrition expert, [...]

Hola faithful UK users - today, muesli is still on our plates (so is our new Bircher page) but we’re taking a trip in time back to the holy hiking paths where muesli was discovered by Bircher, or Dr. Bircher to us. He was a Swiss physician who came across a strange dish on one [...]

look it up and down, talk about it, make friends with it, no seriously, do it.
It’s just that good. We created and designed this muesli marvel with the perfect ergonomic dimensions and balance so it fits just right in your hand and looks, might we add, absolutely perfect on your breakfast table. It has the [...]

Sarah Williams got the formula right, she likes to start the day off with a bowl of muesli before training sessions early in the morning. She’s the only athlete from the UK to win a gold medal in the Olympics so far so we’d like to congratulate her and dedicate this blog to her and [...]

The Greeks knew that: they made it illegal to export these tasty wonders (you could even suffer the death penalty!) just so their Olympic athletes could munch on them and perform at their best. But don’t worry, we don’t think Canada will start hoarding their figs anytime soon. At vancouver, the fig will certainly [...]

Servus! Today I’m seeing red because this entry is all about the misrepresented strawberry. And believe me, it’s not easy to find in the Bavarian winter! But no worries, we have plenty enough to go around. So why misrepresented you might ask? Because they’ve got nothing to do with berries, they’re actually related to roses! [...]
