Camille's favorite

After a short stint at our Saint-Joseph branch, Camille has been working her way up the ladder at our Gréber Boulevard store since 2020. In charge of the Deli and assistant manager, she is an excellent relay for our team and guides our customers with enthusiasm and professionalism. "La Boite à Grains totally corresponds to my values. I don't see myself shopping anywhere else and I do all my grocery shopping here. My work colleagues have become my friends, and that brings me a lot of joy.

Camille presents two of her favoritesRiviera organic Greek yogurt and Bo-Sirop dark maple syrup.

Interview with Camille

Why these two products?

The organic Greek yogurt from Riviera is creamy, smooth and I love the taste. It really stands out, even in its plain version. It's not bland at all, which is what I like.

As for the maple syrup, for me it replaces the traditional sugar, which I've stopped using. The dark maple syrup from Bo-Sirop dark maple syrup is delicious and feels thicker and more intense than others, which I find interesting. The quality is really there. Bo-Sirop is based in the Outaouais region, and I always prefer local companies whenever possible.

Do you have a favorite recipe, a way of consuming these two products?

In the evening, I make my yogurt by adding chia seeds, ground flax seeds and berries. In the morning, I add maple syrup and that's it. It's a great way to start the day!

Let's talk about healthy eating. What does it mean to you?

For me, the priority is to eat products that are as unprocessed as possible. Over the long term, diet has an influence on our physical and mental health, on stress management... I can see it in my case, I suffer from an inflammatory disease and the impact is direct in terms of pain or how I feel, depending on the quality or nature of what I eat.

Do you spend a lot of time in the kitchen at home?

My husband cooks (laughs). I used to cook, but he's kind of taken over lately, and I don't really mind! It takes the stress away.

Do you have any other healthy habits to share?

I've always been very active. There was a time when I did a lot of running and took part in marathons... but my back pain no longer allows me to do such intense activities. I've challenged myself this summer to cycle and walk a lot, and I think it's going to be good for me!

Thank you Camille for sharing your passion with us!
