Conventionally grown sprouts are grown in large rotating drums under warm, moist conditions that provide the perfect environment for pathogens to grow to levels that can cause human illness.
The rootlets found on several sprout varieties, including broccoli and kale sprouts, are the tiny roots that emerge during the early growth stage of the sprout. These rootlets help the sprout absorb nutrients and water as the plant develops, contributing to their high nutritional content. They often form a dense layer across the bottom of the pad or even on top of the sprouts. While they might be mistaken for mold or fuzz due to their appearance, they are a natural part of the sprouts growth and are completely edible.
Some say I’m a bit boisterous or boastful. Maybe so, but only because I’ve got the credibility to back it up. First, there’s my astonishing nutritional value. I can help you produce sulforaphane, an antioxidant scientifically proven to guard cells against free radical damage. I’m an excellent source of vitamin C and other essentials. I provide fiber to regulate the digestive tract. The list of health benefits goes on and on. I also happen to have a nuanced, spicy taste, similar to horseradish or mustard, and wonderfully crunchy texture. So, perhaps modesty isn’t my finest virtue. But I’m working on it.
NOTE: You may notice some fuzzy stuff, called rootlets, in your sprouts. Because our products grow right in the container, that fuzz you may see is actually tiny roots (rootlets), and they are completely safe and nutritious to eat. These rootlets can range in color from white to bluish or light gray, and are a natural, healthy part of the sprout’s growth process. They are not mold. These little rootlets help the sprouts absorb water and nutrients, contributing to their high nutritional content. Enjoy your sprouts with confidence knowing that you’re getting the best nature has to offer!
Back in the 60’s, I was pretty much everyone’s go-to health fix. Since then, I’ve only gotten better. I’m a little on the mild side, with subtle sweetness, yet people often say I’m a little nutty. Maybe that’s because, despite my smallish, delicate appearance, I deliver a pretty crazy cluster of impressive benefits: vitamin C, vitamin K, folate, minerals galore. I’m also quite crispy and crunchy (and nutty), which serves me well in wraps, salads, sandwiches and so on. Might serve you well, too.
In the realm of healthy greens, we’re a remarkable blend, each bringing our distinctive qualities into one powerful mix. I’m Alfalfa, known for my mild and subtly sweet nature, offering delicate sprouts that are surprisingly nutrient-dense. Joining me is Broccoli, with its bold and earthy flavor, a powerhouse of nutritional benefits that adds a satisfying crunch to any dish. And finally, there’s Kale, the dark and leafy nutrient dynamo brimming with Vitamins A, C, and K and a rich, deep flavor to match. Together we create a versatile, delicious, healthy mix ideal for invigorating smoothies, robust salads and nutrient-packed bowls. We’re more than just a blend, we’re a powerhouse of greens.

They say opposites attract. Well, when the two of us get together, it’s quite the party. First, there’s broccoli’s bold and forward taste. Then, there’s the sweet, earthy delicacy of clover. And crunchy? Yes, indeed. Both of us come to the party with our own healthy gifts: clover with a nifty bunch of phytonutrients, iron, folate, vitamins C and K. And broccoli…well, broccoli is the undisputed superfood of superfoods, helping humans produce sulforaphane, an amazingly potent antioxidant. So give us a try. Because sometimes different is better.

People say we make quite a pair. Could be because we’re so similar. You see, compared to our sprout brethren, we do share a certain lighter, more delicate flavor, albeit with hints of sweet and nutty. We also both tend to be laid back, so we mix well with other foods. We don’t compete, we just add our own special level of “crispy,” whether you add us to salads, sandwiches, soups or smoothies. But there’s nothing subtle about our health benefits. Vitamins, minerals, protein, fiber…and, well, modesty prevents us from rambling on.
Though we’re only distantly related, I have a similar appearance and taste to alfalfa. However, I’m a little lighter in color and a little milder in temperament. Like alfalfa, I have delicate white stems and a special crunch, but some people say I taste a little like fresh peas. That’s a good thing, right? Like all sprouts, I’m brimming with healthy attributes: phytonutrients, iron, folate, vitamins C and K. I’m high protein, but low calorie. I may not be the sexiest sprout on the shelf, but if you lean toward a little subtlety and understatement, we just might be a match.
