Kim's favorite

Kim joined the La Boite à Grains team in 2022 as Purchasing Manager and stayed until 2024. Her rich life path has seen her transition from the world of geology to that of retail. «La Boite à Grains is a welcoming company that cares about its employees. It's the same whether you're a manager or a part-time clerk. You feel that human side and it's very refreshing to see".

Kim presents her favorite today, Cheddar chips from Kettle.

Why Kettle Cheddar Chips?

These chips are delicious, have a satisfying crunch, and are pot-baked with vegetable oils.

One of the great things about this product is its low environmental footprint. The Kettle Company has succeeded over time in reducing the volume of its packaging, and uses solar energy to run its factory.

It's important to be informed about how our food is prepared, and to have total transparency about what we eat and consume. If you look at the list of ingredients for these chips, anyone can pronounce them and easily understand what they are. This is real food.

Crackers and chips are among my favorite snacks. Ironically, it's the cheddar flavor I turn to every time. I don't know what that says about me, but it's got to be this one. (laughs).

Do you have a favorite time to enjoy them, or a particular routine?

It could be at work, when I'm feeling peckish in the afternoon, or on weekends when I have guests. My cats love them! (laughs).

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

When I go grocery shopping, I don't want over-processed products with countless additives. If the list of ingredients is limited to five, I'm happy. Lots of fruit and vegetables of course, natural and whole foods, and homemade cooking with as little sodium as possible. When I have a choice, I always buy local.

Do you have a favorite meal of the day? Do you like to cook?

On weekends, I like to take the time to prepare a little breakfast with eggs, potatoes and so on. And also a main meal that I can divide into several portions to enjoy throughout the week. It's a great way to eat healthy and homemade.

I also like to prepare different kinds of cakes and pastries. I don't beat about the bush and choose rich, tasty ingredients. It's a necessary pleasure to indulge in, one that's good for the morale; and guilt-free, especially if you eat healthily 90% of the time.

Do you have any healthy habits to share?

Walking and gardening are my two passions. Many people think that gardening is limited to June to September, but some seedlings can be prepared as early as January, taking care to keep them safe from cats. (laughs) before transferring them to the garden.

As for walking, it's a form of exercise I really enjoy, and one that's accessible to everyone. There's nothing better than enjoying the fresh air, spending time outdoors, being in contact with and listening to nature.

Thank you Kim for sharing your favorite place with us!
