Lettuce Sauce
Thank you for looking at our lettuce sauce!
Lettuce and baby greens have long been a staple offering from the Goodness Acres Market Garden, where it is our honor to not only provide the cleanest all-natural salad sustenance, but also supply our customers with the finest of untainted saucy goodness to complete the experience! Our Lettuce Sauces (salad dressings) have been developed by Jessica Kalitzki, certified nutritionist and Head Chef of the Goodness Acres kitchen.
As we continued to learn about the importance of food quality, we became increasingly disappointed with the offerings from our local grocery stores. Studies have shown that high consumption of seed oils, and other non-essential additives in our foods are affecting our health in negative ways. We felt obliged to provide a cleaner alternative to pair with our garden fresh greens.
Our sauces are olive oil based. Olive oil is heavily regarded as a health positive product loaded with beneficial fatty acids, antioxidants and anti inflammatory properties. The quality of the oil matters - Industrial ultra processed seed oils (canola, sunflower, and safflower oils) are high in Omega-6 fatty acids. Omega-6 fatty acids are necessary in small amounts but this polyunsaturated fat has become so prevalent in the standard American diet that its easy to overconsume. Overconsumption of Omega-6 can lead to chronic inflammation, which is linked to conditions such as arthritis, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes. At Goodness Acres we believe that good food can be medicine. The quality of the fuel that we feed our bodies matters. By remaining conscious of our nutritional choices we can optimize our mental and physical health and well-being. Quality In = Quality Out.
Our product will act differently than the other offerings on the shelf. It will separate. It will harden in the fridge. This is good! Olive oil solidifies at refrigerated temperatures! Water does not. Always read the label. We are proud of our ingredients! We wont sell you water.
