Comparison of SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER to
IM Healthy SoyNut Butter
THE DIFFERENCE
- "WOW! TASTES JUST LIKE PEANUT BUTTER!" SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER… designed and developed specifically to be a peanut butter replacement. The many testimonials speak for themselves...it looks like, tastes like, spreads like peanut butter and some claim that it is better than peanut butter!
- SoyNut Butter… an acquired
taste that at best would only be a lower grade substitute for peanut
butter.
TASTE TRUMPS ALL
Kid (and adult) taste tests have proven that our "WOW! TASTES JUST LIKE PEANUT BUTTER!" SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER wins 100% of the time over the IM Healthy SoyNUT Butter brand
and any
other SoyNut Butters. We have countless testimonials to prove it.
See it first hand on our video testimonials on the website.
TEXTURE
Customers say our Creamy and Crunchy"WOW! TASTES JUST LIKE PEANUT BUTTER!" SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER have the
perfect smooth creamy texture and spread-ability they want - as good
or better
than any peanut butter.
SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER CONTAINS SIMPLE INGREDIENTS
- SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER contains only five simple all natural ingredients,
no fillers, extenders or boosters - only Non-GMO Canadian Toasted
Soy, Soy Oil, Granulated Cane Sugar, Monoglyceride (from vegetable
oil)
and Sea Salt. Because of our unique processing, we start with only
whole soybeans in order to capture all of the nutrition inherent
in soy including Calcium, Iron, Potassium, Folate, Omega 3 oil,
complete
protein, complex carbohydrates, fiber (both soluble and insoluble)
and a natural balance of oils in the exact same way as nature intended.
- IM Healthy Original SoyNUT
Butter contains: Roasted Soybeans, Soy Bean Oil, Maltodextrin,
Granulated
Cane Juice, Mono and Diglycerides (Derived
from Vegetable Oil), Salt.
IM Healthy SoyNut Butter contains a significant
amount of Maltodextrin. SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER does
not use cheaper fillers such as maltodextrin/corn
syrup solids and thus has a higher percentage of all major nutrients.
Manufacturers often use maltodextrin to lower costs. Except in certified
organic products, those ingredients are almost always from gmo corn
sources. Most consumers wish to avoid gmo’s if at all
possible. Maltodextrin/corn syrup solids are almost pure glucose
starch, thus creating high glycemic
response, which of course medical knowledge now shows to be a leading
cause of childhood obesity and diabetic symptoms.
IM Healthy may also
contain soy protein ISOLATE (a very highly processed product)
which manufacturers
sometimes need to add to bring protein levels
up to standard. (See next paragraph relative to the protein level
comparisons) The protein level in our SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER made
with whole soybeans is the same as that in peanut butter, but
without the need for adding
protein isolates. Many studies have shown that eating the whole
food is always better than eating an isolate of something.
NUTRITIONAL
DIFFERENCES
At first glance in looking at the labels
of these two products, they look pretty similar. However, a series
of lab reports on both products
over the past two years has shown SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER superior to
IM Healthy in many ways. And in fact, these tests show that IM Healthy
labels have some significant inaccuracies that should be of concern.
You can see the most recent lab reports here.
Notice the difference in PROTEIN in particular—which
is of course one of the very most important nutritional components
you want - 7 grams
per svg vs 5 grams per svg, meaning SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER contains
33% more protein. And an inaccuracy in labeling of IM Healthy
SoyNut Butter
of almost 30%. The % of Fat was also way out of line, with IM Healthy
containing almost 30% more fat than what is stated on the label.(14g
vs 11g) Additionally, the sodium levels of the IM Healthy SoyNut
Butter are more than 10 % higher than the sodium content of SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER.
The comparisons are shown at the bottom of the
page and the most recent lab reports are available for download
as well.
MORE ECONOMICAL PRICING
SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER is a far better value
than IM Healthy with 17 % more product per jar (contains 17.6
oz vs 15 oz for IM Healthy), and the retail price
is equal to or even less than IM Healthy at most stores. From Snack and
Bakery magazine May 2009, the editor column states, “Today’s shoppers
want REAL VALUE - price, taste and a product that has concentrated nutrition
and that will thus go further. In addition, they are smarter—they are
now looking at the price per ounce, not just per package!” That shopper
is YOU!
FOOD SAFETY AND QUALITY
Hilton Soy Foods has been manufacturing food
ingredients for the North American market since 1990. Unlike other
manufacturers, Hilton Soy
foods is 100% vertically integrated from field to table, that is,
we grow our own soybeans, as well as clean, gently toast, grind, blend
and package our SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER all in one facility. Therefore
we control all steps and we rely on no one else outside of our own
personnel who are all trained on exactly the same strict quality
control
points. Consumers today want to know where their food comes from.
Only Hilton provides this reassurance for our SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER!
There are never any microbiological food safety worries because
all ingredients are cooked in processing far higher than needed
to kill any
bacteria. To help insure quality, consistency and conformity, we grow
and use only very specific varieties of soybeans. In addition, our
SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER is processed in a stainless steel closed
loop, continuous flow,
oxygen free environment that prevents oxidation to our SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER,
thereby helping to maintain a just ground fresh and nutty taste and
aroma all the way to the consumer’s kitchen.
Hilton Soy Foods’ proprietary toasting process and its
SoyButter manufacturing process create a nutty taste while removing
virtually all
the soy flavor with no added colours or flavors. Unlike most all the
SoyNut Butters on the market, our SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER gives a p-nutty
taste to your taste buds.
THE
ORIGIN OF YOUR FOOD
Lastly, unlike other manufacturers of SoyNut Butters, Hilton
Soy Foods is a family-owned completely vertically integrated
business that actually
even grows the soybeans on our own farm and neighbouring farms located
in the fertile soil of Southwestern Ontario, an area renowned worldwide
for its high quality soybeans. The specific Non-GMO soybean variety
grown and used in our SCHOOLSAFE SOYBUTTER commands
a higher premium in the
marketplace, and was chosen for its specific quality traits including
protein, oil and sugar content whereby giving us a very consistent
quality and taste for every production run. We believe most SoyNut
butter manufacturers
use whatever varieties they can buy at the lowest price. You can
feel good knowing where your food comes from and knowing
that you can directly contact the grower/manufacturer with any of your questions.
