White Coffee any one?

On a tour to Dillano’s, we were introduced to White coffee beans. After hearing all these different stories on darkest roast to lightest roast, I was really surprised to run across this. White coffee beans aren't exactly white – they are more towards the color of peanuts – and the liquid they produce is said to be stronger but, because the beans are just barely roasted, the flavor is nuttier, and they contain even more caffeine. The more coffee is roasted, the more caffeine is burned out.



During our tour we got to see the type of machine that was used to grind these special beans and we were advised not to use a household grinder because they can break it; since they are harder like the average raw bean.


Working at Mountain Mist I’ve learned the darker the roast the weaker the caffeine is and the lighter the roast the stronger the caffeine is. I know its mind boggling. :)

IBWA’s : VERIFYED FACTS ABOUT BOTTLED WATER

Anette N.
CSAR

Recently people have resorted to slamming bottled water naively by spreading myths and untruths- without even taking a moment to consider the absurdity of some of the misinformation that they are spreading. The information below is full of VERIFIED facts about bottled water. Don’t be part of the “herd mentality”; Think for yourself. Know the FACTS!

 Bottled water is available at numerous price points and most people purchase it by the case or through home or office delivery, often for about a little over a $1 per gallon.


 ⅓ the proportion of daily calories consumed via beverages by the average American.


 Bottled water is a healthy packaged beverage that competes with other packaged drinks such as soda, teas and sports drinks. Bottled water does not compete with tap water.


 30 days can pass before public officials must give customers written notice of a tap water quality breach, says the EPA ( Imagine how much water you will have consumed in that time! Yuck! )


 Bottled water is required by the FDA to be tested. Gallon for gallon bottled water is tested at least 30x more often than tap water.


 Most consumer food products are packaged in plastic- and not all are recyclable. Why pick on 1 of the healthiest drinks you can buy?


 Bottled water has the lowest carbon and water footprint of any packaged beverage.

 19 million is the number of illnesses caused by drinking tap water each year in the U.S. , according to the CDC


 ZERO is the number of illnesses caused by bottled water each year in the U.S., according to the FDA


 ALL bottled water containers are 100% recyclable. (Mountain Mist even recycles its 3 & 5gallon bottles when they are no longer usable. Always recycle! )


 Barrels of oil? Certainly not! Plastic is made from oil byproducts (That’s the sludgy leftovers from making gasoline) Plastic is not made of virgin oil.


 Worried about BPA? DON’T BE! Visit http://www.factsaboutbpa.org/ to learn more. Excerpt: An international panel of experts concluded that food is by far the main source of bisphenol A (BPA) exposure and that other sources are of minor relevance. The experts were also able to model circulating levels of BPA in the human body, which are very low, indicating that BPA is not accumulated in the body and is rapidly eliminated.” – The World Health Organization (WHO), 2010

NOT ALL BOTTLED WATERS ARE THE SAME! Check the ingredients lists and the bottling source. Then go to www.mountainmist.com to see the difference local all natural water can make!

During the Holidays...

By Myrna
Accounts Receivable Rep

As a Mtn Mist employee, I appreciate all that the company does not just for its people, but for the community around the Holidays.  The company helps with Toys-for-Tots every year, done giving trees and has delivered food baskets. The company gives us a large turkey every year for Thanksgiving, as appreciation for its employees. This year we received a ham for Christmas. Very much unexpected with the economy the way it is, but very much appreciated. We do a gift exchange and have a Potluck to celebrate the Holidays as a large family.

I look forward to the coming year and see the growth of the people and the company. Mtn Mist is a family oriented company that cares about its surroundings and the people that it serves as well as the people that work for it.
