Why do we use wild blueberries in gfBar bars exclusively?

Wild blueberries are a type of blueberry that grows in the wild and is not cultivated on farms.

These berries come from North America and grow in the northeastern United States and eastern Canada.

Wild blueberries are smaller and have a more pronounced flavor than cultivated blueberries. They are also packed with nutrients and antioxidants, making them a healthy and tasty addition to any diet.

One of the key differences between wild and cultivated blueberries is how they grow. Wild blueberries grow on low-lying bushes and are often found in fields or on the edges of forests. They are not planted or cared for by humans and rely on natural processes for their growth and development.

In contrast, cultivated blueberries are grown on farms, and farmers take great care to ensure a high yield and consistent quality. Cultivated blueberries are usually larger and sweeter than their wild counterparts, but they may lack some of the nutritional benefits of wild blueberries.

Wild blueberries have a number of health benefits. They are a good source of vitamins C and K, manganese, and fiber. They also have a high antioxidant content, which helps protect the body from free radicals and prevent chronic diseases.

In addition to their nutritional value, wild blueberries are also prized for their flavor. They have a tart and tangy taste that differs from cultivated blueberries. Many people enjoy eating wild blueberries on their own as a snack or using them in recipes for pies, muffins, and other baked goods.

Despite their many benefits, wild blueberries can be hard to find in some parts of the world. They are not commonly available in supermarkets and may only be found in specialty stores or at farmers' markets. However, they are often sold frozen, allowing for year-round use.

Overall, wild blueberries are a delicious and nutritious addition to any diet. While they can be difficult to find, their unique flavor and health benefits make them worth seeking out.

All our gfBars contain at least 50% wild blueberries, making them the healthiest on the market. Of course, this affects the price, but we believe that the future belongs to quality. That's why we won't compromise on this principle.
