There are organic products from Switzerland or in Migros Aare in the FG department from the region, but they cost more.

Hello Chur69, thank you for your contribution. There is a company in Switzerland that specializes in drying green beans and produces the quantity needed to supply all Migros stores. However, this company does not supply the quantity for the whole year, so Swiss dried beans are only available in the fall. During the rest of the year, Migros sources the dried beans from China. The Chinese beans are transported by ship and then by truck. We have the opportunity to purchase very good quality dried beans in China and therefore offer our customers the best value for money for this product too. Since March 2021, the M-Check label for responsible cultivation has been displayed on the packaging. You can find more information about M-Check here. Best regards, your M-Infoline team

Hello Pirana_2, thank you for your question. Transportation plays a subordinate role in carbon footprints, unless the product is flown. The decisive factor is agricultural production; in the case of animal products, for example, husbandry and feeding, as well as fertilization and the use of pesticides are also taken into account. These production methods may be the same abroad as in Switzerland, so the carbon footprint does not change much. Kind regards, your M-Infoline team

Hello Shiva387, thank you for your comment. We're sorry you were disappointed by the amount of sugar in dried beans. Dried beans are a natural product, but their nutritional value may vary depending on the time of harvest, the degree of ripeness and the nature of the soil. Dried beans have no added sugar. We have passed on your message to our supplier, who will be looking into the matter closely because of the significant differences you have pointed out. The dried beans will be subjected to a more precise analysis, although this clarification may take up to 5 weeks. With best regards, your M-Infoline team

Hello indios, the nutritional information always refers to the product as it is (e.g. rice, pasta, dried beans etc. in its raw state), unless something else is mentioned (e.g. "100ml prepared contains..."). Best regards, your M-Infoline team

Hello indios, your question is still being clarified. We ask for your patience. You will receive an answer as soon as possible. Best regards, your M-Infoline team

Thank you.

Hello indios, the dried beans have a best-before date, which means that they are still edible after the expiration date without any risk to health. However, a reduction in quality must be expected over time. Unfortunately, we cannot help you decide how long you want/can still consume the dried beans after the expiry date; we can only guarantee optimum quality until the end of the shelf life. Best regards, your M-Infoline team

Thank you for your feedback.

Hello Huki, thank you for your comment. We stock Swiss organic dried beans seasonally in the fall and winter. We had big problems because there are very few Swiss dried bean producers. In addition, Migros has high microbiological requirements, which many smaller companies were unable to meet. As our Swiss dried beans are also certified organic, the selling prices are much higher than for conventional dried beans from China. Best regards, your M-Infoline team

Hello Kathrin Thank you very much for your contribution. We are very pleased that you are interested in our range. The factor is between nine and ten. This means that you need around 1 kilogram of beans for 100 grams of dried beans. We hope that our answer clarifies things for you and wish you a pleasant evening. See you soon in your Migros! Best wishes from the M-Infoline team

Hello Urmel9 Thank you for your contribution. It's great that you are one of our valued customers. There is no company in Switzerland that specializes in dehydrating green beans and could produce the quantity needed to supply all Migros stores. Migros therefore sources the dried beans from China. The Chinese beans are transported by ship and then by truck. We are able to purchase dried beans of very good quality in China and can therefore offer our customers good value for money for this product too. An alternative would be to purchase dried beans from Germany. However, this would make the product much more expensive than the Chinese product, which is why we source the goods from overseas. At the moment, it is also not possible for us to source dried beans from Switzerland due to various quality defects. We hope you understand our decision and look forward to welcoming you back soon. Kind regards from the M-Infoline team

Hello relativecritical
Thank you for your contribution. Migros does not stock Zwicky linseed. We are therefore unable to comment on this.
We hope for your understanding and wish you a nice day.
