Old Croc Affirms Its Products Are Non-GMO

With its unique line of bold Australian cheddars, Trugman-Nash has raised the bar on cheese. As the fastest growing imported cheddar in the United States, their two classic, yet distinct flavors of Old Croc Sharp Cheddar and Old Croc Extra Sharp Cheddar are all natural and crafted from pure Australian milk from grass-fed cows. The Old Croc cows graze from rich pasture grass which improves the nutritional quality of the cheese and makes the cheese richer in omega-3 fats, vitamin E, and CLA (a beneficial fatty acid named "conjugated linoleic acid").

“With every ingredient being certified from producers as free of GMOs, Old Croc cheese lovers can be certain they are consuming a product that has been produced following the most rigorous practices for GMO avoidance, all the way down to the feed level,” says Richard Deiber, Director of Sales at Trugman-Nash. Genetically modified organisms, or GMOs, are organisms whose genetic makeup has been modified through DNA methods like gene splicing, gene modification or transgenic technology. It is estimated that GMOs are in more than 80 percent of packaged products in the average U.S. grocery store. “We are very proud to announce that Old Croc cheeses are made with ingredients containing no GMOs. This is what consumers have been requesting in their products and it is great that we are able to meet their demand,” added Deiber. Along with being a healthier, all-natural brand of cheese, Old Croc Sharp and Old Croc Extra Sharp are satisfyingly delicious. The cheeses are carefully aged a minimum of nine and eighteen months respectively, and promise a “delightfully bold bite” to cheese aficionados in the United States. With a distinguished flavor characteristic of the vivacious and bold spirit of the Australian outback, each enjoyable bite of Old Croc cheese captures the time-honored tradition of Australian dairy pride.

Old Croc is a true leader in supporting the consumer’s right to choose safe, healthy non-GMO foods. Everyone has the right to know and trust what they are eating, and with the bold, vibrant flavors of non-GMO Old Croc, consumers don’t have to compromise on taste either.
