STAYING ORGANIC
Dear Amy
I just had to write and say thank you for your wonderful frozen
foods. You probably get tons of letters like this one everyday
but I had to let you know how wonderful your company is.
I've been a vegetarian for over 3 years (I'm 16), but
I'm the only one in my family! This is hard on my single
working mother, who spends way beyond the regular 9 to
5 at the office and doesn't have much time to pull together
two separate meals each night - one for myself and one
for her and my brother.
While health is a very important issue in my mom's eyes
- she's tries to buy organic whenever she can and makes sure
everyone takes their multivitamin everyday - creating healthy
vegetarian meals just for me is tough. That's why I absolutely
love Amy's products. Usually, my mom or I will just prepare
something vegetarian for all of us to eat because it's simply
easier that way but sometimes my mom and brother really want
meat, which is where you
guys come in!
Amy's
Kitchen I absolutely love your Veggie Loaf Whole Meal and
Tofu Vegetable Lasagna. They're also great on nights when
my mom's working late and my brother just pops a frozen chicken
meal in the microwave - I have my delicious healthy frozen
meal too! Your burritos and pocket sandwiches are wonderful
for after school, especially when I have 5 hours of homework
a night and no time to get into a big production for an after
school meal (I usually just have a protein bar, some water,
and an apple or an orange during school lunch because I hate
sandwiches and our school doesn't offer vegetarian lunches
- so I have a big "snack" when I get home).
I don't worry so much about my protein intake and whether
I'm getting all the nutrients I should when I'm eating Amy's
- just a glance at the nutrition facts lets me know I'm going
to be fine! I eat Amy's at least 3 times a week. I've tried
many other frozen vegetarian foods and they just don't compare.
Plus, a lot of them aren't organic and are filled with all
sorts of chemicals and preservatives. That defeats part of
being vegetarian - how healthy can consuming chemicals be?
I want to live a long, healthy life - and Amy's is part
of that experience. Thank you again for your fantastic products!
Sincerely,
Sara Shtrauch |
