You may have heard that we power a fleet of VW "BioBeetles" on our recycled cooking oil. It's true!

At Kettle Foods, we consciously use the healthiest sunflower and safflower oils, which is why we think it's fitting that we run a growing fleet of company vehicles on distilled vegetable oil, known as biodiesel. In fact, 100% of the waste vegetable oil from our production process is converted into biodiesel. This rich nectar that we like to call "Flower Power©" is a natural alternative to petroleum diesel fuel. Its use benefits all of us by saving as much as 8 tons in CO2 emissions every year.

To make biodiesel we donate all of our used sunflower and safflower oil to a company called SeQuential Biofuels (www.sqbiofuels.com) here in Oregon. They in turn make our oil into biodiesel which we then use to run our company cars.
