For Tea
There are a ton of delicious hot beverage options out there, such as coffee, cocoa, and my daily favorite… tea! To make the tea choice even sweeter, scientists at the University of Surrey found that the natural antioxidant found in green tea can help eliminate antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Specifically, epigallocatechin (EGCG) in green tea, when consumed while taking antibiotics, was shown to improve the effectiveness of the antibiotic. This is a big deal considering antimicrobial resistant (AMR) is a threat to global public health, since we need antibiotics to remain effective. Not to fret, we at Aramark have a green-tastic portfolio of teas to ensure you’re healthy, hydrated, and informed!
Snickers Is…
Pecan My Interest
Feeling hungry? Well, there’s a Snickers bar for that. Earlier this month, Snickers, a Mars-owned candy bar, went out to the people to see which nut would be the next hunger-satisfier. Folks had the option of choosing cashews from Florida, pistachios from Cali, macadamia nuts from Hawaii, or pecans from Texas. Via a true snack-ocracy (which totally delights this snack-lover by the way!), the pecan won, and with it a pecan version of the Snickers bar was sold exclusively online as limited-edition. It was so popular that it sold out! But no worries, we have the OG Snickers bar for you – to fight hunger, to fight cravings – yum.
