Healthy Chef Creations® is very excited to announce the transition to the new CPET containers. The new packaging has the following benefits:

Each compartment sealed to prevent leakage
Oven safe (use cookie sheet when heating meal)
Microwavable
Recyclable
Meals stay fresher longer
Freezable

The CPET packaging allows your meals to stay fresh longer. Bacteria that spoils food needs oxygen to grow. Therefore the removal of oxygen from the package will allow your food to stay fresh longer. Our entrée containers are used in conjunction with a packaging machine that modifies the atmosphere of the container by removing oxygen and adding natural gases nitrogen and carbon dioxide. The modification process lowers the amount of oxygen in order to slow down the growth of aerobic bacteria and the speed of oxidation reactions. The mixture consists of nitrogen (N2), commonly acknowledged as an inert gas and carbon dioxide (CO2), which can lower the pH and inhibit the growth of bacteria. Nitrogen is colorless, odorless, tasteless and comprises 78% by volume of the Earth’s atmosphere. By removing the oxygen you protect flavor while slowing down the growth of aerobic bacteria. By injecting carbon dioxide in the package you slow down the spoilage process.

Note: For optimal freshness, we recommend ordering no more than 5 days worth of Salads per delivery date.
