Late July

 


How did you come up with the name Late July?
Our name represents that carefree time in the middle of summer, when school is the furthest thing from children's minds and vacation is in full bloom.  Especially on Cape Cod where we live, Late July is really the perfect time of year.  We think that the spirit of "Late July" represents what it means to eat organic foods because eating organically allows us to eat without worry.

 


What’s the story with trans-fats?

Trans fats are contained in thousands of snack foods in the U.S and are used by manufacturers to add texture and to increase shelf life of their products.  Trans-fats act like saturated fats in the body and increase LDL or “bad” cholesterol and decrease HDL or “good” cholesterol. There is also mounting evidence of connections between trans fats and breast and prostate cancers as well as coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes.  Late July does not use trans fats or hydrogenated oils.
