28 Feb 2018 --- Brand new start-up - Better Almond Butter - delivers unpasteurized, organic and sprouted nut butter “packed with health benefits,” says the budding company. By heading to Spain to grow their almonds, they skip the process of pasteurization necessary for US almonds. This process “zaps nutrients and flavor from the almond itself,” Rachel Cleary, Director of PR and Marketing Better Almond Butter tells NutritionInsight. Sprouted almonds supply extra vitamins to the organic, unpasteurized spread.
