Most of our ingredients are sourced from Europe. We are one of the few brands that source our Almonds from Sicily, not California. Not only do we think our organic Sicilian almonds taste better and are of higher quality and are also more environmentally. Some of our ingredients are sourced from outside the EU, like coconuts, for obvious reasons, however the same level of quality and sustainability is guaranteed through the organic certification system.

Our Drinks cartons are made from 88% renewable packaging materials using bioplastics from sustainable sugarcane and are 100% recyclable. Our cereal cartons are made from 85% recycled content and are 100% recyclable. And our Light Cereals are packaged in HDPE recyclable film. We are continuously working to improve our packaging whilst ensuring the freshness of our food isn’t compromised. Tetrapaks: In the UK, 68% of Tetrapaks are recycled through kerbside collection. For the 26% of UK local authorities that do not offer kerbside collection, Bring Bank systems are available. That is a total of 94% recyclability across the country. You can check where you can recycle your cartons on the TetraPak website. For guidelines elsewhere in the world, please look at your local recycling systems.

Yes. We are proud to say that none of our food or drinks are GMO. Green groves, flourishing fields and verdant vines are the starting point for our food and drink. Not labs.

We never have and never will use palm oil.

We use rice to bring a subtle sweetness and creaminess to our drinks. Other brands often use artificial thickeners, gums or other additives, but we have chosen rice to ensure our drinks are as pure, simple and natural as possible.

We use a small amount of cold-pressed organic sunflower oil to create a deliciously smooth and creamy drink. We chose to use cold-pressed oil as it has been minimally processed, it also retains a fuller flavour and greater nutritional value. The drinks that have a higher percentage of nuts, coconuts or oats and therefore the highest amount of naturally occurring oil don’t need the extra help from the sunflower oil, so we leave it out.

You’ll never find refined sugars in any of our foods and drinks. Instead we naturally sweeten some of our Dairy-free drinks with organic rice. We cook it slowly over a long period of time until the starches turn into sugar, making our drinks the perfect creamy texture whilst also rounding out the flavour allowing our ingredients to sing.

Some of our drinks contain organic cold-pressed sunflower oil. The  oil  acts  as a natural emulsifier, binding the other ingredients together and giving our drinks a smooth mouth feel. The drinks that have a higher percentage of nuts, coconuts or oats, and therefore the highest amount of naturally occurring  oil,  don’t need the extra help, so we leave it out.  We try to use the perfect amount of each ingredient so that the taste and texture are both spot on. 

Our Almond drinks are made using organic Sicilian Almonds. Almonds from Sicily are much richer in flavour, so that 1% was the perfect amount for our Almond Drink to be deliciously nutty, without compromising the consistency of the drink or making it taste too much like marzipan. We use Sicilian almonds because they do not require irrigation (like in California) The trees are naturally accustomed to the rainfall in Sicily. It’s a win- win!

Absolutely. Try a dash of nutty almond in your porridge. Swirl creamy coconut into a smoothie. Froth, foam or steam your morning coffee with our extra smooth barista blends. Need inspiration? We’ve got you covered. Visit our recipe page.

ORGANIC At Rude Health, we never compromise on quality and will continue to source all the ingredients used in our foods and drinks from trusted and sustainable suppliers.  We always recommend buying Organic when possible, as doing so eliminates the risk of glyphosate and other similar chemicals completely. NON - ORGANIC We have an excellent relationship with all of our suppliers and have strong quality control measures in place to ensure that all of our non-Organic foods are regularly tested for glyphosate. Our customers can be reassured that if any glyphosate is found in our non-Organic products, it would be well below the level that is set in EU and UK safety and usage regulations.

Our barista range is specifically developed for professional use. This meant, when developing our barista range, we wanted to ensure that every mug or cup of coffee would have the same great froth and creaminess that is essential in a coffee shop environment. We decided to use gellan gum because it’s the most natural thickener we could find. Gellan gum was originally discovered growing on water lilies, but it is mainly produced by fermenting sugar with the natural bacteria strains that were found on the water lilies.

To make our products we take the best ingredients we can find, then we use natural processes like grinding, cooking, roasting and puffing. None of these are considered ultra-processed. We don’t use anything artificial or refined, the best way for us to describe it is ‘kitchen cupboard ingredients’. We source our ingredients from fields orchards and vines, not laboratories.
