"I'm incredibly excited about the new Chia Squeeze flavors and our new organic bagged chia," said Janie Hoffman, Mamma Chia founder and chief executive officer, and author of the new book, Chia Vitality (Random House -- April 1, 2014). "We know Mamma Chia lovers appreciate the delicious taste and convenience of our beverages and snacks, and we're thrilled to now offer a bagged-chia option for those who want to create their own chia magic."
