❇️SOUR CREAM AND ONION❇️
Our own blend of simple ingredients and full of flavor - creamy with a subtle buttermilk tang, and brightened with fresh onion and dill, every bite delivers a flavor that’s fresh and balanced.
1 year ago, we sold our first bag of chips - packed in a clear bag with a sticker made in a table top fryer. As we look back on how far we’ve come, we’re beyond grateful - from the other business owners we met at the shared kitchen, to being a part of best Farmers markets community in Houston, to the first store that gave us a shot, to renting our own kitchen space & investing in equipment, to hiring our first employee, and now to shipping nationwide. Here’s to another year and even more exciting growth to come.
Today, we celebrate you all - our amazing community. Thank you for making Mad Tallow what it is.
