Sometimes referred to as "a trick and a treat", "cool beans", "food for thought" or "a sugar-coated message"...we like to call Diversity Beans a "super cool teaching tool" that reminds people to not "judge a book by its cover" or a person by a first impression.
Because their flavors may not match their colors, schools and corporations find Diversity Beans to be a memorable way to talk to students and employees about important topics around diversity, equity, and inclusion.
