About Us

We started selling healthier-for-you items in 2016 at our local Farmers Market in St. Louis, MO, after a life-changing Culinary Nutrition program.

Our customers loved Cashew Cheesy Sauce so much that we decided to take a year and a half to perfect a shelf-stable recipe, and fill the void in the middle aisles of the grocery store with this pantry staple of plant-based goodness.

Core and Rind Cashew Cheesy Sauce was born from years of trial and error in our own kitchens- no food labs and scientists involved here!

Enjoy dairy free macaroni and cheese, gooey nachos, plant-based or paleo pizza and even on a salad, if that floats your boat.  All without fear of eating chemicals, additives, and unpronounceable ingredients.

We want to nourish you, one cheesy bite at a time. Our products are made of real food, always.
