As a New Orleans favorite, one of the questions we often hear is, “These are just dried beans – what makes yours different?” Well, there are government standards, and then there’s “the Hayward standard.” That’s the name the bean growers we do business with – some for generations – give to beans above the top USDA grade. Because the Hayward family has always ordered premium beans that exceed those levels, that level of quality was dubbed "The Hayward standard" by our suppliers. They set these beans aside for us because while others might go for a lower price, we go for highest quality. So our Camellia Brand logo means what it’s always meant: the most delicious, creamy, flavorful, and highest-quality beans you will ever find on a grocery store shelf. Oh, and for the record, our beans are non-GMO and gluten-free.
