Frequently Asked Questions

WHERE ARE OUR LENTILS FROM?

When 2 lentils love each other very much... :)

The lentils we use are Non-GMO and grown in the USA. 

Did you know that Canada is the largest grower of lentils in North America? We love our neighbors to the north, but we are proud to do our part to support pulse farmers here in the USA.

ARE LENTIL TELEPATHY PRODUCTS VEGAN?

Yes, we use 100% plant-based ingredients in our recipes ensuring a vegan-friendly range.

Did you know?  Unlike many brands using sugar that is filtered with bone char, the sugar we use is NOT filtered with bone char.

IS LENTIL TELEPATHY A WOMAN OWNED BUSINESS?

Yes!  We are registered with the Small Business Association and US government as a woman-owned small business.

HOW DOES LENTIL TELEPATHY HELP SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY?

A portion of our manufactured goods is donated to local food pantries and other community organizations. We love to be in service, please let us know if your community needs snack support.

WHAT CERTIFICATIONS DO YOU HOLD?

We have gone to great lengths to ensure a product that is fit for all.  We are proudly 100% plant-based and vegan. All ingredients are Non-GMO, Gluten-free, and innately Kosher. We follow the strictest FDA and FSA standards as well as our own rigorous control procedures to prevent cross-contamination. We have complete confidence in our sourcing and methods but understand that certification is an important aspect of consumer trust. Attaining and displaying certification badges on our product packaging and website is a priority and on our immediate roadmap.

WHY IS LENTIL TELEPATHY'S PREPARATION METHOD IMPORTANT?

Although lentils have nutritional advantages, in their raw state lentils also contain naturally occurring elements within them such as lectins, phytic acid and trypsin inhibitors (aka “anti-nutrients”) that can carry away minerals, and cause digestive discomfort (e.g., bloating, gas) if not properly removed or neutralized during the preparation and cooking process.

Our proprietary and thorough lentil preparation process removes as many anti-nutrients as possible, eliminating potential digestive discomfort and boosting the bioavailability of nutrients within them.

ARE LENTIL TELEPATHY SNACKS AND SALAD TOPPERS FRIED OR ROASTED?

Neither! Unlike other roasted snacks and salad toppers out there, Lentil Telepathy products do not use oil as a means of roasting. “Extra calories and saturated fat are my favorite,” said no one ever. Our multi-step method involves using water and thermal energy. In fact, we despise greasy residue and oily fingertips so much that we put it right on our packaging:  NO OILY FINGERTIPS!

DO LENTIL TELEPATHY PRODUCTS CONTAIN ALLERGENS?

Our recipe ingredients do not contain any of the nine major allergens. Our spices and flavors are mixed in a peanut-free facility, however other allergens are present at the spice mixing facility such as wheat, soybean, dairy, eggs, tree nuts, and shellfish. 

Our production kitchen is a shared facility where allergens may be present, although not directly contained in our product. The strictest cross-contamination and allergen-control procedures are implemented during manufacturing.
