The Scoop- July 2010


Around the World Gourmet has been providing people with delicious all natural food since 2005, but there is always something new going on around here. Last week we had the opportunity to attend the Ohio Food Summit. This was an event put together by the Ohio Department of Agriculture to promote links between food producers, distributors, and retailers. For a current store listing go to www.aroundtheworldgourmet.com

Recently we were awarded grants from the Center for Innovative Food Technology (CIFT) that will allow us to provide our customers with new products in 2011 and 2012. The purpose of the research is to develop better tasting, better quality gluten-free pasta, tortilla wraps, pizza crusts, and a high fiber bread with a prebiotic.
The company is currently working on formulations for these products and conducting sensory evaluations, which is a little more detailed than taste testings. Sensory evaluations also include the other senses such as look, feel and smell. If you'd like to participate in the sensory evaluations, email us at sales@aroundtheworldgourmet.com.
