Celebrating nine years since Peeled Snacks made their way to store shelves. Were so grateful to all of you whove supported us in our journey to make healthy snacks a reality. With gratitude, I share this earthy poem by Marianne Moore, Nevertheless: youve seen a strawberry thats had a struggle; yet was, where the fragments met, a hedgehog or a star- fish for the multitude of seeds. What better food than apple seeds - the fruit within the fruit - locked in like counter-curved twin hazelnuts? Frost that kills the little rubber-plant - leaves of kok-sagyyz-stalks, cant harm the roots; they still grow in frozen ground. Once where there was a prickley-pear - leaf clinging to a barbed wire, a root shot down to grow in earth two feet below; as carrots from mandrakes or a rams-horn root some- times. Victory wont come to me unless I go to it; a grape tendril ties a knot in knots till knotted thirty times - so the bound twig thats under- gone and over-gone, cant stir. The weak overcomes its menace, the strong over- comes itself. What is there like fortitude! What sap went through that little thread to make the cherry red!
