Sprouted foods

Great flavor from an ancient tradition

Sprouted foods offer great flavor and often are easier to digest. Here are a few of our favorites from your local PCC's shelves.

Since biblical times, humans have sprouted and germinated certain seeds, grains and beans to make them easier to digest and their nutrients more readily available. Lucky for us, many foods made with sprouted ingredients taste great, too, with a more intense essence and toothsome texture. Adding sprouted foods to your diet is easy: Simply sub in the sprouted version of bread, cereal, tofu, tortillas and other ingredients for your usual ones.

Here's a sampling of sprouted foods that you'll find at PCC. Many are kept refrigerated for maximum freshness.
