Hatch is Everywhere!
Hatch in the Bakery
I couldn't wait to taste the Hatch Cheddar Loaf--another magical hatch creation! It was soooo good, with the cheddar taking the hatch heat and rounding its corners. This loaf would be perfect with the Hatch Chicken Salad (you can find it in the Chefs' Case). I'm going to toast a slice and will get back to you, but it feels like it would make a terrific toast or, how about French Toast??
Next I sampled the Hatch Corn Bread Rolls. Another winner! And a great addition to a Green Chili Stew family meal.
So "Get Your Hatch On..." and savor the dozens of Hatch delights available today in the Central Market Bakery!
Sonata Lilies
We have 3 Stems of Sonata Lilies for $7.99 until Wednesday, August 25th.
What's awesome about these lilies is we are "First to Market" with these amazing flowers.They are a lily crop that was grown exclusively for CM and no other retailer has them. And what a fragrance....one of the varieties smells like cotton candy....Yummmmm. The others also have amazing, sweet fragrances too.
These lilies have a limited availability. Get them while they last!
New Zealand Eve Apples In House
For the past decade or two, New Zealand has dominated the apple scene with some of the most flavorful and interesting varieties; Gala, Braeburn, and Jazz are a few of them. And then something happened: a fluke apple from Minnesota (which is a pretty rough place to grow apples,) the Honeycrisp came through and dominated premium apple markets across the US. Bad news for the Kiwis: it doesn’t grow very well in New Zealand. This year was supposed to mark the first export crop (we booked the first pickings,) and a hailstorm blew in and ruined it all…

Chile & Granola? No Way!
Anderson Trail Natural Soft Granola has introduced a new flavor like no other. Hatch Chile Chocolate Granola tastes like a homemade brownie with the added warmth of New Mexico Hatch Green Chiles. There are so many ways to enjoy this new flavor: mix it with an unsweetened cereal, sprinkled with greek yogurt, on top of your favorite ice cream or as a cookie mix. Anderson Trail is a Central Market customer favorite and made in Ft. Worth, TX.
In December, 2003, Justin Anderson the founder was 16, when he made the granola for his family, friends and teachers at school. The response was overwhelming. His aunt in Colorado urged him to get it out there and share it with everyone. Justin will be at the following stores sampling the product and signing bags:

It's a Bing Thing
Not all energy drinks are created alike, and in fact there are a lot of them out there that, beyond their energy claims, just can't deliver on flavor.
That can't be said about Bing, a new energy drink available only at Central Market. It has 75% less calorioes and carbs than major energy driinks and sodas and tastes great. Bing uses real black bing cherry juice and only pure cane sugar. The cherry juice is high in anti-oxidants and acts as an inti-inflammatory.
Bing also contains Ginko Biloba, Acai, Ginseng, Beta Glucan, Flax Seed Extract and Gurana. It also contains 100% of the daily values of B-Vitamins and Vitamin C with only 40 calories and 10 g of carbs per 12oz can. All that aside, it just plain tastes good and refreshing, and makes an excellent mixer. Try it with ice cream for a yummy float or check out their web site for some cool new adult beverages. Bing is the thing!
Hand Made and Crafted with Love
If you are like me there is nothing quite like a true Pennsylvania Dutch hard pretzel. Sure Potato chips and tortilla chips have there place in the snack world but a well made pretzel is akin to an artisan bread or a bouquetiere cheese.
Though Central Market has the standard machine made pretzels seen everywhere, look a little closer in that section of the aisles for Uncle Jerry's Pretzels. All of their pretzels are fat free, made without oil, shortening, or sweeteners of any kind and they are preservative free. The pretzel bakery is located in the heart of rural Lancaster County, the home of the Pennsylvania Dutch and the first commercial pretzel bakery in the U.S., founded in 1861.
Uncle Jerry's Pretzels are made from a 100 year old family recipe. Each pretzel is individually hand rolled and twisted, then baked in a stone hearth oven.They have a variety of flavors, but the most unique is the Extra Dark. If you like your toast dark, you'll love the smoky flavor of those extra dark pretzels. Match them up with your favorite brew, a dip in a robust mustard or just plain sour cream. I'm getting hungry already. Look for me in the Pretzel aisle. And by the way Uncle Jerry's can only be found in Central Market, an exclusive product with exquisite taste.
