AVOCADO TOAST

Brunch it Up!

Hard to believe

but true! Avocados have higher levels of potassium than bananas

In fact, the levels are almost double - a single avocado contains 975 mgs of potassium, compared to 487 mgs in a banana.

A trendy and instant classic. Get fresh avocadoes in or lean on the reliability and ease of avocado pulp and whip up with some ricotta and lemon juice. Serve with poached eggs, cherry tomatoes, and all the herbs! A banging brunch that showcases summer flavors

SOME OF OUR

LocallyGrown Herbs

BASIL

Basil has highly aromatic qualities and flavour profiles; the wide range of distinctive fragrances within its chemical makeup emit notes of citrus, clove, anise and cinnamon, all providing a sensory memory that sets basil apart from other herbs

BAY LEAVES

Fresh Bay leaves are more potent than dried leaves, but in either form, they offer a woodsy, herbal & slightly floral aroma reminiscent of rosemary, pine, and citrus

They have a mild onion flavour, that doesn’t tend to leave a long aftertaste. Chives sport globular spiky, pinkish-purple flowers in the early summer months, which are also edible and share the same mild onion taste

DILL

Baby Dill offers a mild, sweet anise flavor with hints of parsley and celery.

MINT

They impart a fresh clean scent and a strong mint flavour with sweet overtones

ROSEMARY

The fragrance is very pungent, with a bitter and astringent, pinelike taste

Oranges are non-climacteric, meaning they won’t ripen after they’re picked They need to be left on the tree to develop their color & flavor.

The Water Footprint Network estimates that it takes 13 gallons of water to grow one orange & 45 gallons of water to make 1 glass of orange juice

Sysco brand products are evaluated for flavour, appearance, nutrition, packaging, convenience and many other factors to make sure our customers receive the best quality and value available.

Suppliers are audited for HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) compliance, sanitation, pest control, foreign materials prevention and more. Suppliers of high-risk products, once approved, are audited regularly by Sysco QA staff to ensure ongoing compliance.

Temperature-Controlled Supply Chain

To ensure the best in food safety, quality and freshness, our cold chain is never broken. Every Sysco product passes through numerous temperature control points, including fully insulated, multi-temperature trailers; transport temperature monitoring by specially trained Sysco Delivery Associates; chilled docks; and designated temperature zones within every warehouse.

Packaging Integrity

Sysco is an industry leader in packaging criteria, transparency and labeling practices. All Sysco brand products are clearly labeled with nutritional information, ingredients, production/use-by dates, potential allergens, and proper handling, storage and distribution information.

Recall Notification

In the event of a recall, Sysco uses the industry’s most sophisticated and accurate notification system to investigate and react to recall notices and safety concerns immediately.
