Q: Where does the name BRIANNAS come from?
A: Del Sol Food Company, Inc. is a family owned business.
The name BRIANNAS is a combination of two family member names, Marianne
and Brian. |
Q: Where do you get your ideas for new salad dressing
flavors?
A: Most of our flavor ideas come from employees, consumers and
projected trends. Do you have an idea that you would like to share?
Please contact us.
|
Q: Will you be adding any new flavors?
A: Yes, we are constantly testing and working on new dressings.
However, you will not see BRIANNAS flooding the market with new flavors.
When we do introduce one, we want it to be the very best it can be.
|
Q: What is the shelf life and how can I read it?
A: One should always remember that the shelf life is affected
by the conditions under which a bottle has been stored. Refrigerate your
dressing as soon as possible especially once it’s been opened! This will
keep BRIANNAS fresher tasting, longer.
In July 2002, we implemented a new “best by” system to assist our
customers in purchasing only the freshest BRIANNAS Fine Salad Dressing.
If you look on the side label in the lower right hand corner, you will
see our suggested “best by” date for your bottle of BRIANNAS. The "best
by" date is the date that the product should be used by.
|
Q: Why are there pictures of a fruit or vegetable on
the label?
A: The pictures shown are either a dominant
ingredient or a serving suggestion.
|
Q: Do you offer coupons?
A: We are currently running a coupon promotion with
Kendall-Jackson Wines. The IRC is $1.50 off any two bottles of BRIANNAS.
Look for the coupons around the neck of Kendall Jackson Wines nationwide.

Q: How can we purchase BRIANNAS Fine Salad
Dressings?
A: Our dressings are sold in most of the major chains, in
gourmet specialty stores and in supermarkets across the country. If you
are unable to locate a store that sells BRIANNAS, please contact us and we will be happy to

Q: HELP!! I can’t find my favorite flavor of
BRIANNAS Fine Salad Dressing at my local store.
A: We manufacture BRIANNAS then sell to specialty food
distributors, who in turn, sell to gourmet specialty food stores, chain
stores and supermarkets. We don't always know which stores, in
particular, are stocking specific BRIANNAS flavors. However, a store that
carries some of BRIANNAS dressings should be able to purchase other
flavors through their distributor.
|
Q: I am opening a small specialty food store
and would like to feature your dressings. How do I proceed?
A: Please give us a call! We will direct you to a
distributor in your area.
|
Q: Can you provide information about the
canola oil used in your products?
A: Canola
oil is safe, natural, light tasting and one of the healthiest of all oils
to consume. The Del Sol Food Company uses the highest quality canola oil
in our products. Canola oil is valued for its healthy fatty acid profile,
being rich in monounsaturated fat and the lowest in saturated fat of any
consumer vegetable oil. We have selected canola oil because it compliments so
well, without overpowering, the seasonings and flavors we use in our
dressings. If you would like additional information regarding canola oil
please visit
http://www.canolainfo.org and/or
http://www.canola-council.org.
|
Q: Where can I find nutritional information
about your products?
A: Nutritional information is listed on each bottle of BRIANNAS sold in the U.S.A. Products sold in other countries meet
labeling requirements set by each individual country. If you need
additional nutritional information or have a specific dietary issue,
please contact us. |
