<\/a><\/p>\n Just returned from an amazing tour of Melissa’s Produce<\/a> in LA; \u00a0you may recognize the name, or the logo, if you buy any fruits or vegetables, and especially if you’re a discerning buyer and adventurous cook who likes to experiment with the newest items to hit the produce market. Founded in 1984, Melissa’s is a family-owned company based in LA that has grown to become the leading distributor of specialty fruits and vegetables. The opportunity to tour the Melissa’s facility was arranged by a organization of \u00a0Orange County food lovers, eaters, and writers called OC Bites<\/a>. The tour was interesting, fun, educational, and of course, delicious!<\/p>\n
