Consumer Critique: The Real Co.

The Real Co sells a variety of certifiable, 100% Single Origin products, including: Himalayan Pink Rock Salt, Organic Raw Cane Sugar, and organically grown White Basmati Rice. The Real Co is a pioneer in Single Origin foods, where they honor the pact of transparency and never play-up the integrity of their sourcing. The Real Co promises its consumers a clear understanding of the source of their food, the methods used for farming, & how it is packaged & delivered. Honesty & trust is something that they take very seriously and are extremely proud to achieve!

Every grain of salt, sugar and rice can be traced to its source, which is shared on every package of food that bears The Real Co name. Every food item has the Non-GMO Project Verified seal and is harvested from one single place, single farm or single family.  The Real Co products are also Vegan, Gluten Free, Organic and Kosher!

I had a chance to sample of their products, and I was very pleased with the quality. My daughter loved the look of the pink rock salt, and the basmati rice cooked up deliciously. The organic raw cane sugar was also a hit - it does taste different than conventional table sugar when eaten plain (not that I do that on a regular basis, strictly for scientific purposes).
