     Progressive Grocer announced on Friday the recipients of their 2006 Editors Pick awards. "New products are the lifeblood of grocery retailing," said Stephen Dowdell, editor in chief of Progressive Grocer. "At the same time, grocery buyers get flooded with tens of thousands of new product alternatives each year, and many innovative items can get buried in the pile as a result. Here, in the opinion of the experts at Progressive Grocer, are some of the standouts that are worth a closer look."

     French Meadow Bakery was one of the three Editors Picks in the Dairy category with their Healthy Hemp Tortillas.

     On September 1st Progressive Grocer wrote "Tortillas are now a staple for any grocer, not just those catering to Latino customer bases. It makes sense to mix them with the latest in healthy baked goods trends, as in this product, Healthy Hemp Tortillas. These press all the hot buttons: gluten-free; wheat-free; certified organic; an excellent source of omega-3, -6, and -9, thanks to the hempseed; and not a carb bomb at just two net carbs per serving. The toasted sesame has a nutty kick, to boot."
