NxE Client Oh So Crisp! Featured in Wired Magazine!

NxE Client featured in Wired Magazine.
Finally: it’s really a French fry without the deep fryer or the fat! The innovative food scientists at Oh So Crisp have created an all-natural coating that crisps food perfectly in an oven. Using a unique blend of ingredients, they have created a coating that works with a food’s natural moisture levels to achieve a crispy outer texture when baked. 
Currently, their products include frozen, pre-coated Russet Fries and Sweet Potato Fries. The zero-fat fries are then available to restaurants, schools, and consumers directly. The coating also works to crisp poultry, fish, and vegetables. Oh So Crisp is also working on creating other products to bring to market in the future. Stay tuned – this is one tasty treat to watch!

ooNae Selects North by East



ooNae has selected North by East for its ecommerce web development and custom front end web design. Thanks to Mica and Chris at ooNae for recognizing our talents and taking the time to meet with us.

We are excited to work with ooNae and help them get the word out about their Picnic Pouch line of designer/environmentally friendly re-usable sandwich baggies. We will be posting regular updates about the progress of this project, and will fill you in on the whole story that is ooNae, but for now let them tell you about the Picnic Pouch. 

Picnic Pouch, the story . . .

One day, while helping out with lunch at school, I noticed that the trash bin
was nearly full after one seating.  I saw my own children skipping toward the barrel and happily tossing their empty plastic baggies in.  After inquiring with
the teachers, I was amazed to hear how much trash our little school
produced each day.

The creation of the Picnic Pouch is the result of that realization.  
This design has been tried and tested on countless lunches.  The materials selected will keep your sandwich soft and your crackers crunchy for the
entire day!

By using this instead of plastic you are making one small change with a big impact.

Thank you,

Mica
