Catherine, this was so beautifully written. You really managed to capture all the complicated feelings that are present when a chapter closes. I'll be cheering you on wherever life takes you next!
this was beautiful - thank you for taking the time to share and being so open. I'm so sad for you both as you handle this transition (handle is an insufficient verb but I can't think of a better one?) AND I can tell, even from this outsider perspective, that your resilience will continue to carry you both extremely far
Thank you for sharing this! Saying "not anymore" is even harder than saying "no" in the first place. You built an amazing brand and product — and you're going to build something even better on the other side of this!
Just stocked up on all the sauces (still distraught about never having the chili lime dressing again) after reading the news. You guys created something incredible in a VERY hard CPG environment, and I loved the behind the scenes peak into running the business that you shared. Cant wait to see what you have in store next <3
A beautiful tribute to a project you both gave your heart and soul to. I can only imagine what young entrepreneurs who don’t have your verve and good sense are up against. I’ve read several memoirs from people who felt gutted after closing a business and now they’re doing the can-can (otherwise they wouldn’t be writing their memoirs!). Bon courage to you both. S.J
Even though I knew this was on the horizon, I still thought it was an April Fools joke when I saw the announcement yesterday. Ordered two six packs for the pantry. Thank you for bravely sharing the grief of saying goodbye to a dream.
My heart is aching for you and Jackie—but can I just say, BRAVA! You did it. A whole community of foodies is grateful for you and your generosity and genius. On to the next adventure!! ❤️🙏

Thank you!
<3 love. And understanding.
Amazing sauces and effort! Thank you for sharing your 30's to make such a wonderful product. Let's go 40s!!
Thanks for all the support Josh!
