SNACK PACK ATTACK Preparing for the kids to go back to school means new supplies, new clothes, and new ideas for what snacks to pack for their long days at school. It is important to choose high-quality snacks that will keep your children fueled until it is time for lunch or their after-school snack.

According to nutritionists, snacking is important for children of all ages.

Childhood is a time of critical growth and development, and snacks provide important nutrition that your child needs between meals. Children with satisfied hunger perform better mentally and physically than those who are hungry.

Healthy snacking provides your child's brain with the nutrients it needs. Not just any snack will do though--many common snacks are nutrient-lacking and full of empty calories.

Snacks containing good fats, such as cheese, are great for sustained energy and satiation. Cheese is great paired with crackers or other whole grains as your child's snack because they provide fiber, vitamins and minerals. Limit crackers and snacks with lots of added sugar, fat, and artificial ingredients.

Keep it simple--delicious and filling snacks do not have to be too mcuh work for you to prepare! Keep reading to discover quick and easy school snack ideas to keep your kids fueled and energized all day.

TASTE THE

Adventure

Old Croc is the Australian cheese with a delightfully bold bite.

Prepare your taste buds for an irresistible flavor experience that could only come from ‘the land down under.’

SEPTEMBER 2019 | 22

A CHEESE AS SPIRITED AS THE LAND IT COMES FROM. The time-honored tradition of Australian dairy dates back to 1788 when two bulls and seven cows were boarded onto ships heading for Australia. Story has it that, upon arrival, all nine cattle escaped into the bush.

It wasn’t until about six or seven years later that early colonizers discovered the lost cattle had survived and grown into a herd of about sixty! Thus, the legacy of Australian dairy farming was born.

Australia is a land like no other. Its geographic isolation has meant that much of its flora and fauna is very different from species in other

parts of the world. High rainfall, fertile soil and lush, green pastures encourage dairy farming in Australia. All Old Croc all-natural cheeses are Non-GMO and crafted with pure Australian milk from cows that graze on these rich pastures.

Old Croc proudly reflects the vibrant, bold, adventurous spirit characteristic of Australia and its people. A land where they live life to the fullest; enjoying an active, fun loving, healthy lifestyle…with good food, good drink and good friends.

PURE AUSTRALIAN MILK, MATES! Old Croc Cheddar is all natural, made with non-GMO ingredients and crafted with pure Australian milk from grass-fed cows. The Old Croc cows graze from rich pasture grass, which improves the nutritional quality of the cheese and makes the cheese richer in omega-3 fats, vitamin E, and CLA (a beneficial fatty acid named “conjugated inoleic acid”).

Along with being a healthier, allnatural brand of cheese, Old Croc Cheddars are satisfyingly delicious.

With a distinguished flavor characteristic of the vivacious and

bold spirit of the Australian outback, each enjoyable bite of Old Croc cheese captures the time-honored tradition of Australian dairy pride. *The Australian dairy industry prides itself on the safety and quality of the dairy it delivers. The use of steroidal hormones is prohibited in dairy farming in Australia. **Genetically modified organisms, or GMOs, are organisms whose genetic makeup has been modified through DNA methods like gene splicing, gene modification or transgenic technology.

Don't You, For Cheddar 'Bout Me! Summer has ended but it doesn't mean we don't still get to enjoy one of the best parts of it. America’s favorite sandwich is celebrated on September 18th—the cheeseburger! The combination of a juicy ground beef patty paired with rich melted cheese on a soft bun is a match straight from food heaven. They’re relatively easy to eat and prepare, and with so many customizations and toppings—it is no wonder why cheeseburgers are one of the most popular foods in America. Every cheeseburger consumer is extremely passionate about how they like them cooked and topped. How do you like yours?

There are many theories about the origins of the cheeseburger, but many agree that it was created sometime between 1924 and 1926 by Lionel Sternberger, who was only 16 years old at the time. While working in his father’s sandwich shop in Pasadena, California, he decided to add a slice of American cheese onto a cooking hamburger. He and his father both liked it, and thus decided to add it to the menu.

They originally called it the “cheese hamburger”. Customers enjoyed it too, and thus the cheeseburger was born. Some believe the cheeseburger was invented in Denver, Colorado by Louis Ballast in his restaurant, the Humpty Dumpty Drive-in.

Mr. Ballast managed to trademark the word "cheeseburger" in 1935, but passed away before he could secure exclusive rights to the sandwich.

Forget the basic, processed American cheese burger. Keep reading to discover gourmet sizzling and savory cheeseburger recipes to fire up your National Cheeseburger Day celebration.

Use 80% lean and 20% fat ground beef.

Its relatively high fat content makes for a juicy burger.

Making a thumbprint in the middle of the patty keeps the burger from puffing up in the center.

For the proper crust on a burger, skip the grill and cook on cast iron.

Use canola oil, and high heat. Heat a cast-iron skillet until it begins to smoke. Add canola oil or another type of neutral cooking oil and add the burgers. Do not touch them until it is time to flip. Flip them only once.

Make sure they are cooked exactly how you want them by checking the temperature as follows: 140 degrees F for rare, 145 for medium rare, 160 for medium, 165 for medium well, and 170 for well done.

Don’t be afraid to mix cheeses. To melt the cheese onto the burger, add a few splashes of water and cover the pan.

SAINT ANGEL

Saint Angel, Guilloteau’s success brand made of squareshaped, extra creamy and tasty cheeses now has three varieties available. At just five inches square, Saint Angel is a cows’ milk triple cream cheese with incredibly smooth texture and big, buttery flavors that will not go unnoticed. For those craving an even creamier bite, Saint Angel cheeses are the perfect match. With delicate, white bloomy rinds and base flavors of sweet cream and mild mushrooms, each delights with every bite, and becomes even more rich and robust with age. Pair with sparkling wines and ciders at any ripeness for a taste of heaven.

FR-889 Original (Triple Cream) • 2x1.7lb • $8.59/LB

Since 1981, Fromagerie Guilloteau has used a unique technology to produce all of their cheeses called ultrafiltration. This manufacturing process involves removing the excess water contained in milk prior to the cheesemaking process, leaving only the protein, milk fat, and nutrients. All the milk Fromagerie Guilloteau receives for their production is pasteurized and then filtered. The results are incredibly even, ultra creamy cheeses with very fine, soft bloomy rinds and exceptional nutritional value. What’s not to love?

FROMAGER D’AFFINOIS The Fromager d’Affinois line of cheeses offer silky, smooth, mouthcoating creaminess and a decadently rich, buttery taste. Made with pasteurized cows’ milk and available in a variety of flavors using only the freshest ingredients, there is a d’Affinois for everyone to adore.
