Author of several books on vegetarian cuisine as well as the founder of Expo Manger Santé et Vivre Vert Renée Frappier, who is also an enthusiast about the growing popularity of the Zero Waste movement, stated:

"We are thrilled to see the current fervour and propensity toward healthy eating, a trend now reflected in Canada's latest Food Guide... What a pleasure to see such major changes occurring in our everyday eating habits. At the Expo, our aisles are filled of green products and we are proud to help bring these eco-solutions to a more receptive audience than ever before!"

Expo Manger Santé et Vivre Vert also includes two other very important sections, Ecology and Global Health, providing a complete overview of the newest products and trends for a healthy and ecological lifestyle.

Among the lead products, visitors will discover a variety of vegan foodstuffs such as a new vegan cheese sauce, vegan sorbets and a pizza flour made from organic wheat, as well as various new fermented, raw and probiotic foods. Some exhibitors are also offering the Expo visitors the opportunity to purchase their products in bulk.
