Eggland's Best Eggs

CEDAR KNOLLS, NJ, September 15, 2009 – Ever since brothers Bob and Jim Sawyer opened the first all natural gourmet breakfast and lunch restaurant in Michigan in 1975, the family-owned Sawyer’s Gourmet Pancake House has only served the finest all-natural ingredients to Lansing-area residents. Continuing that tradition, Sawyer’s serves Eggland’s Best Classic eggs exclusively on their breakfast menu.
 
Recently, Eggland’s Best teamed up with Sawyer’s Gourmet Pancake House to celebrate Michigan State Football Kick-Off weekend by offering students, faculty and staff $1.00 off their world-famous organic blueberry pancakes and $1 off any Eggland’s Best omelet.
 
“Food is my passion,” said Bob Sawyer.  “We guarantee our customers’ total satisfaction with the taste and quality of every egg that we serve. With their superior nutritional benefits and exceptional flavor, Eggland’s Best eggs are perfect for our menu.” 
 
Compared to ordinary eggs, EB eggs contain 25 percent less saturated fat, 200 mcg of lutein for eye health, provide ten times more Vitamin E, and 19% less cholesterol (175 mg vs. 215 mg). Plus Eggland’s Best eggs contain 40 percent of the daily requirement for iodine and three times more Omega 3 than ordinary eggs.
 
 “Like Sawyers, Eggland’s Best has always taken pride in producing the best tasting, most nutritious eggs for our customers,” said Charlie Lanktree, President and Chief Executive Officer of Eggland’s Best. “To be associated with a high-quality restaurant like Sawyer’s Gourmet Pancake House is a privilege.”
