Eric Rupert is crushing the selfie game and beating the heat in (very air conditioned) Whole Foods Market stores throughout Texas this week! Eric is our co-founder and head chef, which makes him the most qualified person to sample our candied pecans across the nation. And he's really, really good at it! In the comments below, guess his record for 8oz cans sold at a single Whole Foods store in 3 hours. 😎 •Eric's Texas Demo Schedule• September 26: Voss 9am-1pm Post Oak 2-6pm September 27: Woodlands 9am-1pm September 28: Parklane 9am-1pm Lakewood 2-6pm September 29: Plano 9am-1pm Fairview 2-6pm September 30: Los Colinas 9am-1pm Forest 2-6pm October 1: Lamar 10am-2pm Fort Worth 3-7pm

What's the Coolest Thing Made in Wisconsin? 🤔 We're definitely biased, but we think it's our candied pecans. If you think so too, you can vote for us! This is the first year we've been nominated for The Coolest Thing Made in Wisconsin award and we're up against over 100 other statewide businesses! (Only 16 will make it to the next round.) Whether you're a lifelong Wisconsinite, a long-distance cheesehead, or you just love a good competition, your vote means a whole lot to us! You can vote everyday until Tuesday, September 24.

Big news!

We are back at home after the best trade show on the planet! The American Cheese Society National Conference is da (cheese) bomb. There is no other trade show I have ever attended that is populated with such an incredibly diverse set of people with so much in common. The vibe is amazing! Everyone is welcoming and friendly and there to do the same thing...celebrate the work and people and food that they love. Here's a story that is the perfect encapsulation of the show: Our flight out was at 615 AM on Saturday, and Eric Rupert and I called a Lyft. They were slow to arrive, and although it was an airport ride with two passengers, the driver in the large 4 door truck said he could only fit one suitcase. When we told him we had 6 (#tradeshowlife), he drove off without saying a word. There was a car next to us, waiting for the Lyft guy to get out of the way. They rolled down the window, AND OFFERED US A RIDE TO THE AIRPORT! Who was driving the car? President of Vermont Creamery David Stearle. That's ACS for you. You should be there in Sacramento next year.
