Healthy is Not Horrid

And with the abundance of revolting 'low-fat', 'low-carb', 'low-sugar', De-Caf, skimmed milk, should-have-had-a-glass-of-water, rubbish available on every corner  in the land, be it inside the supermarket or in the city centre, its easy to feel like your the only one who has ever noticed.

But we have :) All it takes is a tiny wander around the chiller to notice that all this produce is well up there with Coca Cola in the packaging and advertising stakes. And without the massive budget! 

When you feel low, sleepy and January-fied, strange that these dark green, iron rich piles of Kale might catch your eye...

Or maybe Mutli coloured beetroots...

Gorgeous new season Rhubarb? Purple Broccoli?

Blood Oranges...

And Romanesque

We love all these colours and smells. It makes the job worth doing :)

Much Love,

The sun comes up on New Smithfield Market

By the fridge door, in the greyest part of NoonesfreshHQ is a box. And in the box, wrapped in the brightest red greaseproof handkerchiefs are oranges.

Not just oranges however, our first glimpse of this years Arancia Rossa di Sicilia or Sicilian Red Oranges.

Forgive us for getting a bit excited, and we love local produce more than most; but when these boxes of jewels start to arrive from the hotter, dustier parts of Europe it brightens up the day a treat.

The colour in the oranges, anthocyanin, is a antioxidant and the sharp, raspberry flavour of the orange itself is fresh and clean and enough to wake up the most overindulged tastebuds.

We think you will love them.

For more info, as ever, the office team are ready and waiting,

Much Love, and Happy New year,

On the 17th day of Christmas...

Paul and his Pissanlet (and Mesclun)!

Those with any Italian blood might know that this is Dandelion leaf and the name literally means 'Wee-the-bed" from the fairytale story told to children.

Hopefully there wont be any of that over this festive season!

On the 16th Day of Christmas...

We have Sean and Rev from the Saddleworth Cheese Company,

We shared our stand with these boys at last years Northern Bar and Restaurant Show and since then they've become rather famous for their fab cheeses which are somewhat saucily named...

Their website is well worth a look, just make sure you have your speakers turned up nice and loud :)
