Australian Raw Organic Carob Kibble - 7.05 oz.
CAROBOU'S Australian raw kibble 7.05 oz. bag comes from the best pieces from the farm orchard in South Australia. Raw carob kibble nibbles are crunchy dried sweet carob pod pieces. Australian carob kibble can be consumed as a healthy snack food, trail mix, or used in a hot tea. No processed heat is used to make our kibble nibbles.
Carob seeds are removed in our raw kibble nibble before packaging - please check for seeds when eating. Excellent product for health-conscious traditional or raw food consumers.
Most carob around the world is grown for their seed quality and not the pods as seeds made into locust bean gum are more lucrative than pods made into carob powder.
CAROBOU'S wide range of Australian Carob products is made from new generation carob pods grown on sweet carob trees selectively chosen for their thick, rich, luscious pods — not for the seeds.
It was carob pods – rather than locusts grasshopper that sustained John the Baptist while he lived in the wilderness preparing the way for the Messiah. Ceratonia siliqua, commonly known as the carob tree (from Arabic خَرُّوبٌ kharrūb and Hebrew חרוב haruv), St. John's-bread, or locust bean or simply locust-tree, is a species of flowering evergreen shrub or tree in the pea family, Fabaceae. It is widely cultivated for its edible pods, and as an ornamental tree in gardens. The ripe, dried pod is often ground into carob powder, which is used to replace cocoa-cacao powder.
