EDEN Great Northern Beans
are organically grown in nutrient rich vital soil on family farms
committed to a clean environment and the most nutritious, life encouraging
food. The beans are soaked overnight and cooked with purified water and a
bit of kombu sea vegetable that softens and brings out their flavor. No
salt added.
EDEN Great Northern Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) are a heritage New World
variety that appeared in America about 300 years ago and probably had its
roots in Europe. They are seeds of the common green bean, fully matured
and dried. Great Northerns are medium sized, white, oval shaped, larger
and more elongated than navy beans. They thrive in the rich soil and
moderate climate of the Midwest.
EDEN Beans have twice received the highest ranking in comparisons of
brands by Nutrition Action Healthletter, most recently in 1999. Every
flavor of EDEN beans was recognized as having superior nutrition including
high fiber and low sodium. The study gave a special attention to EDEN's
"delicious … healthy seasoned beans that you can eat right out of the
can."
EDEN Beans are the most delicious and nourishing because they're grown in
living soil free of pesticides, herbicides and chemical fertilizers for
decades. These organically grown beans are perfect food. Commercial
canners put chemicals in with beans to harden the skins so that they won’t
fall apart in the can as they cook. They also add a chemical to hold the
color. Our organic beans come out perfect with none of these additives.
Because of the vital soil that produces them, their much higher mineral
content and stronger skins allow them to be cooked without need of
processing chemicals, and their vibrant colors hold fast. Our cannery,
Meridian Foods located in East central Indiana has a long standing
reputation for putting out cooked canned beans of a better quality, fill,
and finish than any other cannery in the United States.
EDEN Great Northern Beans are a most satisfying source of high quality
vegetable protein, with very little fat. They are an excellent source of
dietary fiber, providing 31 percent of the daily recommended value per
serving. They are also a good source of thiamin (B1), phosphorus,
magnesium, and zinc, and provide potassium, calcium, iron, riboflavin
(B2), niacin (B3) and folate (B9).
