Sweet Home Farm® French Vanilla with Almonds Granola 20.5 oz. Carton

Alluring AlmondsBotanically speaking, the almond is actually a fruit, belonging to the same family as other stone fruits including nectarines, peaches, plums and cherries. One of the earliest cultivated foods, almonds were spread by explorers traveling the "Silk Road" of Asia. Romans showered newlyweds with almonds as a fertility charm. The Swiss use them to this day as a New Year's good luck charm.Delicious VanillaVanilla, considered by many to be the perfect flavor, is the only edible fruit of the orchid family.

The Story of GranolaFact is stranger than fiction!In the mid-1800's, Dr. Sylvester Graham, of Graham Cracker fame, promoted his wholegrain wheat flour bread for its high nutritional value. Shortly after, Dr. James Jackson created the world's first breakfast cereal by baking the graham flour into dense wholegrain nuggets—dubbed "Granula"—that had to be soaked overnight to be edible. Enter Dr. John Harvey Kellogg who, in 1876, created his own version of granula, which he called "Granola." Then Charles W. Post got into the act with a similar formula known as "Grape Nuts."The popularity of granola soon waned, to be revived nearly 100 years later along with a renewed interest in wholegrain food. That's when we dished out fifty bucks for baking equipment and a secret granola recipe.
