The Story of Mrs. Dash® - A Working Mom Gets Creative
For Carol Bernick, president of Alberto Culver, North America, necessity really was the mother of invention. In the 1980s, Carol, then an executive in the marketing department at Alberto-Culver became frustrated with the available products to flavor the salt-free dishes she prepared for her family. So, she got creative and decided to invent a blend of her own.
Working with a variety of spice suppliers, Bernick tasted, tested and tweaked until she got a blend that was just right. The result: Original Mrs. Dash Seasoning Blend, a sparkling mix of 14 herbs and spices that adds punch to foods.
Mrs. Dash was first marketed in 1981...over 25 years ago. Today, Mrs. Dash is available in a variety of different flavors including: Original Blend, Table Blend, Garlic & Herb, Extra Spicy, Lemon Pepper, Southwest Chipotle, and Tomato Basil Garlic. These non-sulfited spices and herbs are preservative-free and processed naturally, which means there is just great tasting flavor in every bottle of Mrs. Dash.
Sodium Wise
Sodium is an acquired taste that can turn into an unhealthy habit that is hard to break. Start today by making the simple choice to take small steps towards reducing sodium in your diet and appreciate foods for their true flavor. Share these tips on reducing sodium from the American Heart Association.
High-sodium diets are linked to an increase in blood pressure and a higher risk for heart disease and stroke. Did you know that Americans on average consume more than 3,436 mg of sodium daily? And that more than 75% of consumed sodium comes from processed foods? Many experts now believe that lowering daily consumption to less than 1,500 mg of sodium daily would be an effective way to prevent or lower high blood pressure. However, the amount of sodium and salt used in the U.S. food supply makes this goal difficult to achieve for most Americans.
