Amanda's favorite

Amanda has joined La Boite à Grains in 2019. Starting as a lead cashier and then assistant manager of our St. Joseph branch, she was promoted to manager at the end of 2021.

Unanimously praised for her drive, professionalism and engaging personality, Amanda has a hard time hiding her smile, even under her mask during pandemic times.

Good food being one of her favorite things, she tells us more about one of her favorite products, the Savör crackers.

Why Savör crackers?

They are delicious and they go with everything! Fauxmages, veggie spreads, all kinds of spreads... you can't go wrong with these crackers. They are made of healthy ingredients and are also a great snack for kids.

There are many different flavors, what are your favorites?

The originals are always my first choice, then the multigrain.

What is your ideal accompaniment?

Cretons and avocado! I recommend it!

Do you have a favorite meal of the day?

Yes, dinner. It's a meal that we share with the kids and family. We take the time to prepare good food, with the inspiration of the moment. I take care to always select organic fruits and vegetables that we find here at La Boite à GrainsWe also eat different kinds of salads.

What is a healthy diet for you?

The first thing that comes to mind is the notion of balance. Lots of fruits and vegetables, sources of protein, always giving priority to quality and organic foods.

Since I started working at La Boite à GrainsI'm much more careful with my food. I always check the ingredients and I am more demanding in my choices. Taking local products has become important to me.

For me, eating healthy also means playing with flavors and colors. I use a lot of turmeric, coconut milk, rice, and prepare dishes that are Canadian, Asian or Caribbean inspired.

Tell us about your health habits. Do you have any to share?

For the past two years, I have been taking probiotics twice a day to strengthen my immune system. I have noticed that I get sick much less, if at all.

Thank you Amanda for sharing your favorite food with us!
