Restaurant Daily News Saturday, May 18, 2019 4 Karat Manufactures New Sipper Lid By Kendra Cerbasi, Marketing Coordinator, Karat ® by Lollicup™ Karat by Lollicup is launching the new Strawless™ Sipper Lid to help customers comply with straw bans and stay on trend within the coffee, tea and restaurant industry. New Strawless Sipper Lids allow you to skip the straw and sip! These lids are perfect for combating local and nationwide straw bans along with cutting down on straw waste. The new Strawless Sipper Lid is the first of its kind, because it has a hybrid feature for drinking with or without a straw. This is the first lid to have both features, allowing individuals with health conditions or people with disabilities that need to drink with a straw to be able to do so. "With imposing straw bans taking effect, we needed to provide a solution for our customers who are having diffi- culty finding an affordable way to serve drinks without a straw. We also thought it was important to give customers a choice to use a reusable or eco-friendly straw with the lid, as well," says Chief Executive Officer Alan Yu. Karat by Lollicup created this lid to be the solution for straw bans, and help customers who are struggling to find an alternative. Customers will now be able to stay on trend and up to date with their c o m p e t i t o r s with this new sipper lid. This lid is made from PET, which is easy to recycle compared to other plastics. Karat by Lollicup is a premier beverage and dis- posable goods supplier and manufacturer for the foodservice industry. Karat by Lollicup owns four brands: Karat, Karat Earth ® , Tea Zone ® and Total Clean™.

Among the many natural sprouted grain breads are its widely popular Ezekiel 4:9 and Genesis 1:29 ® breads, English muffins, tortillas, buns, cereal, pitas and pasta. Sprouting maximizes digestibility and nutrition while lowering the glycemic index in the company's flourless bakery products. Beyond the commitment to superior nutrition, there's also a commitment to a balanced and protected pH in every loaf. Why is a balanced pH so important? Because Food For Life recognizes that a balanced pH is absolutely essential for optimum health. This is why Food For Life meticulously chooses its ingredients, and refuses to use acidifying agents such as cultured wheat starch, vinegar, calci- um propionate and ascorbic acid – all preservatives. As an a m a z i n g benefit of s p r o u t i n g , grains actu- ally become more alka- line as water and oxygen support the growth of the new plant and naturally balances the pH. While a balanced pH is great for health reasons – helping protect against disease and illness – a higher pH does tend to shorten shelf life.
