Origins: You want to know who invented it? ‘t was the Swiss! More accurately so a young doctor named Maximilian Bircher-Brenner who advised his patients to consume a meal based on soaked grains, grated apple, lemon juice, milk and nuts on a daily basis.
We love it for: its raw, natural state, the amount of colourful ingredients that give us a happiness boost in the morning, the sheer variety of (heritage) grains that can serve as a base and their tender bite

Origins: It’s true, Granola is originally from the States and, like so many famous food trends, was born in New York. Once Dr. Jackson developed his “Granula” – a baked whole wheat dough intended for crumbling and soaking – it didn’t take long before John H. Kellogg brought his version, baked grain flakes, called “Granola”, on the market. Thanks to some health conscious hippies, our modern Granola now also contains nuts and fruit.
We love it for: its crispy texture, delicate sweetness (from honey, fruit or maple syrup) and, of course, for the nuts which release their marvellous aroma even better when baked
Tastes great with: a creamy Greek yoghurt, pure as a healthy snack to nibble on, sprinkled on a smoothie or paired with a fruit salad

We love it for: its grain-y, yet sweet taste and for its crunchy clusters of grains that make our breakfast oh-so-much crispier
Tastes great on: a fresh fruit salad, smoothies and milk shakes, paired with a basic muesli mix, combined with milk or plant milk, as dessert or fondue dipping prop or even just pure
