NEWMAN-O'S: MILK DUNKIN' GOOD

Cream Filled Chocolate Cookie Expands Organic Cookie Line

Nell Newman loves chocolate and can't go too long without dreaming up a new use for it. This time it's Newman-O's, a delicious addition to Newman's Own Organics' cookie line. "Dad's name has been in lights - and now it's on our cookies, too." states Nell. The cream filled chocolate delight is easily recognized by the distinctive package featuring "Pa" and Nell Newman in American Gothic dress and its accompanying courtly sentiments:

Ode to Newman-O's
You might, m'lady tweak my nose.
You could, m'lord step on my toes.
But Heaven help those poor bozos, who try to filch my Newman-O's.

Newman-O's

NEW! 9 oz. package

We've expanded our popular Newman-O's line with the addition of Peanut Butter Crème Filled Chocolate Cookies in a 9 oz. package. Also available in this size will be the original Crème, Chocolate Crème, Mint Crème, Crème Filled Ginger Cookies, and Wheat Free, Dairy Free Crème, as well as in the larger 16 oz. package.

"We've been listening to our consumers," says Nell, "They requested a smaller size that is more economical and suitable for the single person, small family, or those counting calories who find the larger packages too tempting. The new peanut butter crème was one we thought kids and adults would both enjoy. We certainly do!"

Newman-O's join Champion Chip Cookies and Fig Newmans™ in the popular cookie line. All the division's chocolate products include organic cacao that comes from small farmers in the Talamanca region on the Atlantic coast of Costa Rica and Panama. Some of these farms provide important buffer zones for the La Amistad Biosphere Reserve, a habitat for endangered mammal and bird species. "Growing the cacao in the ancient way means that no rainforests need be destroyed," says Nell. "We encourage this method by supporting the farmers economically."

As in our other cookies, we are using organic palm fruit oil. It shouldn't, though, be confused with palm kernel oil. Organic palm fruit oil:

  • Is not hydrogenated
  • Contains no trans-fatty acids
  • Is lower in saturated fat than butter and has no cholesterol
  • Is widely used in Europe as an alternative to partially hydrogenated oils
  • Is extracted from the palm's fruit not the palms kernel
  • Can be grown organically in tropical regions

Of the three tropical oils, Palm Fruit Oil is 50% saturated, while Palm Kernel Oil is 86% and Coconut Oil is 92%.

We like too, that palm fruit oil comes from a part of Colombia where its production helps protect the area.

These cookies can be found in natural food stores across the country. Like our other products, Newman-O's are certified organic by Oregon Tilth.

Note* We source our organic chocolate from producers in Central and South America. Issues surrounding forced labor are primarily centered on cocoa farms in West Africa, principally on the Ivory Coast. Our producers take measures to certify that all of the cocoa they purchase is produced without the use of forced labor.

Our group of cooperatives are inspected to verify compliance with organic standards. They require written verification from the inspector that each farm is "slavery-free".
