LA JOLLA, Calif., January 10, 2012 /3BL Media/ - Kashi, the premier natural food and lifestyle company, has introduced two USDA Certified organic cereals, Kashi® Berry Fruitful and Kashi® Blackberry HillsTM, which bring together real organic fruit and whole grains, for a delicious breakfast to start your day.

Berry Fruitful features shredded wheat biscuits with a flavorful berry filling made with real, organic fruit, including Concord grapes, apples, raspberries and strawberries. Blackberry Hills pairs organic whole grain rice and wheat flakes with tangy organic blackberries for a taste that’s sweet and delicious.

“We’re excited to introduce two scrumptious additions to our growing list of USDA Certified organic cereals that will make eating well easier,” says Keegan Sheridan, natural food and lifestyle expert at Kashi. “We’ve always believed that nature makes the best-tasting ingredients, like the hearty whole grains and luscious organic fruit you can see and taste in our Berry Fruitful and Blackberry Hills cereals.”

In addition to providing simple yet tasty ingredients, Berry Fruitful and Blackberry Hills deliver positive nutrition in every bite. Each serving of Berry Fruitful provides 6g of fiber, an excellent source, and 46g of whole grains, which is nearly 100 percent of the recommended daily value.* Blackberry Hills offers a good source of fiber with 3g and has 16g of whole grains per serving. Like all Kashi foods, both cereals are free of preservatives, artificial flavors, colors and high fructose corn syrup.

Berry Fruitful and Blackberry Hills will also carry the official Non-GMO Project Verified seal and join Kashi’s nine other Non-GMO Project Verified foods, Autumn Wheat®, Cinnamon Harvest®, Island Vanilla®, Strawberry Fields®, Simply Maize, Indigo Morning(organic) cereals, 7 Whole Grain Flakes and 7 Whole Grain Puffs cereals, and 7 Whole Grain Pilaf.
