PHILOSOPHY

YOU ARE BEING POISONED

Many restaurants and grocery stores are poisoning you with toxic ingredients that your body simply cannot process. This includes things like seed oils, vegetable oils, soy, palm, artificial, and preservatives. This results in inflammation, illness, depression, hormonal imbalance, weight volatility, and much more. Certain disease exists today which once did not, and we believe much of it has to do with your diet. We prioritize your health at our expense, by sourcing higher quality ingredients — while they are prioritizing their margin at the expense of your health.

OUR INGREDIENTS — BACK TO THE BASICS

We do not cook with ANY seed oils, canola oils, vegetable oils, and we are completely soy-free.

OUR OILS — We prepare our food primarily with grass-fed butter, followed by extra virgin olive oil, and fry only a few select items using beef tallow. Our dessert features animal-based ghee, full of nutrients and omega fatty acids.

OUR VEGGIES — Grown in America. No hexane ripening, no preservatives, and nothing artificial. Sustainably and regeneratively grown so it is not destroying the surrounding environment. You would be amazed at how much the environment suffers with certain farm practices that do not follow sustainable or regenerative practices. Our veggies are healthier, and taste better (so much better).

OUR DAIRY — Yogurt is the foundation of our famous Tzatziki sauces. We use an authentic cow's milk yogurt established by greek families in Vermont.

OUR HONEY — Raw + Unfiltered. Better for the bees, better for the environment and better for you, honey.

SUSTAINABLE SUPPLIERS & FARM RELATIONSHIPS

Our partnering farms practice everything from low till operations to avoid soil erosion, to cover-cropping to protect soil health. They produce goods without sulfites, nitrates, benzoic, propionic, and sorbic acids. In an effort to maximize nutritional value, they focus on wholesome variety diets for their feed and treat their animals humanely. Within every market, we will strive to prop up our local community by sourcing the greatest ingredients from the best farms.

OUR FUTURE

As we continue to grow and expand into new cities — food integrity will always stand at the front of our operation. We seek to scale truth.
