THE NEXT LITTLE BLUE BOX
It’s what you’ll notice first. Alex tinkered for more than three years designing her box and I think it’s the most brilliant packaging I’ve ever seen. It’s simple corrugated cardboard, scored in such a way as to fold neatly around its precious cargo of bon bons. With some funky stickers, a rubber band and some cool tape, it transforms into an eye-catching, hip yet elegant box that can hold one or one hundred chocolates inside. My guess is it’ll turn out to be as iconic as a blue box from Tiffany’s®.
MADE IN DETROIT
Alexandra Clark traveled the world working with chocolatiers, studying pastry making, and working with small cacao farmers before opening her own shop in a hamlet of Detroit called Hamtramck. Word spread quickly about her quirky company, reaching the likes of Martha Stewart. In less than a year Alex went from no retail shops to three, but she’s still kept things small. A crew of nine women make, deliver and sell their amazing bon bons.
“I once worked for a chocolatier that explained how the business worked. ‘The box is expensive, the chocolate is cheap.’ That always seemed nuts to me. It should be the other way around.” - Alex Clark, founder of Bonbonbon

Goat’s Milk Caramels Louisa Conrad and Lucas Farrell tend a small herd of goats on their Big Picture Farm in the hills of southern Vermont. They use the fresh goat’s milk in their tiny creamery and confectionery. Their caramels have won a loyal following out east and I think you're going to be won over by them too. Caramels made with goat’s milk have a softer texture than traditional caramels, so you won’t lose a crown chewing one. Four flavors included in each box: Sea Salt & Bourbon Vanilla, Maple Cream, Chai and Cocoa Latte. Packed in a lovely illustrated box, a great gift for any sweets lover.

Not A Normal Box of Chocolates We’ve never offered a "normal" box of Valentine's chocolates’ and in spite of appearances I'm going to say the streak is still alive, this box of pralines and caramels being, in my book, anything but normal. Made by hand here in Ann Arbor by Cathy Selin, a transplant from New York City. Cathy does everything herself with painstaking detail. Her ganache alone takes four days to create, compared to the usual four hours. Each box includes almond pralines and burnt sugar caramels, fifteen pieces in total. Nestled in a handsome box, it’s a classic gift for any chocolate lover. Aside from the Plaza and Ritz Carlton hotels, Zingerman’s is the only place you can find Cathy’s chocolates and we don't even have turn down service so take that, New York. Limited quantities.

Spanish line-caught tuna Ortiz Tunas from Spain Tuna is one of the most popular foods we sell. It may seem surprising because here in the U.S., tinned tuna is a low-end commodity usually sold in supermarkets. In Spain it’s at the complete opposite of the culinary spectrum. Tuna in tins, especially these from the fourthgeneration family firm Ortiz, is one of the jewels in Spain's culinary crown. Ortiz's fish are all line caught—never netted—cleaned at sea and quickly tinned in good olive oil. The olive oil is key. It adds flavor and makes the texture silky over time, unlike water, which tends to leach flavors from the fish. Spectacular stuff. Kosher.

they got it right Octopus from Ramon Peña
Octopus is a tricky fish to tin. We’ve never sold it and it’s not from lack of trying. I’ve probably tasted octopus from twenty different canneries. Those samples suffered a range of maladies: overly gelatinous, too cat-foody, or, they had what I refer to as “rubber hose phenomenon.” I came to Ramon Peña’s octopus with low expectations born from experience. What I tasted was a treat, a surprise that ranked at the top of my new food list when I discovered them last year. Peña’s round tin holds over a dozen slices of tentacle, suckers intact. Octopus is never a melt-in-your mouth food and these are appropriately meaty with a satisfying ticky tacky bite that never once veers to garden hose. They also possess a scent of the sea so clear it’s disarming. A tin serves four as an appetizer. And since one of those four people probably doesn't eat octopus there’s more for you.

I understand that the name may put you off. Eels just don’t sound appetizing. I assure you they are, far more luxurious than you can imagine. This tin has four flakingly tender eel fillets, lightly smoked. Milder than mackerel or sardines, they have a texture that reminds me of salmon crossed with sea bass. Amazing stuff, with the kind of out-of-fashion packaging that belies the high quality of fish within. Eat them on their own, forked out of the tin. Or top a green salad with a couple fillets, capers, Marash red pepper and lemon zest. An unparalleled late night snack. P-EEL 105 g tin $18 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Superior sardines Portuguese Ramon Classic Sardines Peña Little Tuna is our topSardines
selling tinned seafood, but sardines aren't too far behind. It's surprising to me since sardines are not a big part of the popular food scene in America. One thing to know is there are actually dozens of different fish sold as sardines in the U.S. Most are either brislings from Norway or herring from the North Atlantic. While they aren't bad, they don't come close to the flavor of true pilchards like these. And unlike Norwegian sardines, these are never smoked, so the full flavor of the fish comes through. Four or five tender, perfect sardines, come nested in a tin of olive oil. We offer standard (illustrated) or extra virgin olive oil, which has the effect of making the flavor more buttery, less metallic; in a way it's less fishy. To some folks who are used to a briny, edgy flavor they will come off as softer, rounder. P-SAR 125 g classic (illustrated) $7 4 or more $5.50 each P-SEV 110 g extra virgin $9 4 or more $7.50 each

for SeafOod seEkers Razor Clams from Ramon Peña
Razor clams, named for the way their shell resembles a straight razor—are the red headed stepchild of the clam world. Littlenecks, manilas and cockles get all the attention. Razor clams languish, rarely seen on restaurant menus or at the fish monger’s. Lucky for us Ramon Peña specializes in overlooked sea creatures, especially ones that are tasty. And razor clams are indeed tasty. Their shape makes their texture a bit different than a regular clam, more like octopus or squid. The flavor is deep and briny. Tinned simply in olive oil these are a great gift for a curious seafood seeker. P-RCL 138 g tin $39

One Family's Vinegar
why we carry the vinegar of one balsamic maker While we carry different vinegars and olive oils from different farms and acetaias we only carry one family's everyday balsamic: La Vecchia Dispensa. Working just off the historic square in the center of the old town of Castelvetro, southwest of Modena, Italy, Roberta Pelloni and her husband Marino Tintori make a range of outstanding balsamics. And while I've probably tasted another fifty balsamics since we started carrying theirs a decade and a half ago none have come close in terms of balance and flavor. Although Americans tend to gravitate toward sweet caramel-flavored balsamics, Marino is quick to emphasize “the key to great Balsamico is balance.” Exaggerating sweetness is an easy way to enhance appeal and reduce the need for proper blending and aging. You might not notice it at first, but after many uses overly sweet balsamics get kind of dull. Not so with Vecchia Dispensa. They have a legion of followers who return to them again and again. A staff and customer favorite, their 10 year aged balsamic is the most intensely flavored balsamic of its age I’ve ever tried. Its complexity, with rich flavors of oak, blackberry and dark fruit, is partly due to aging in very small batches. That allows more evaporation and contact with the barrel—both of which contribute to more intense flavors. Although aged for only 25 percent longer than the 8 year balsamic, the intensity of flavor is almost double. As you move up the age range—to 16 year and 30 year—the liquor thickens, the sweetness enhances, the caramelization takes you on a wild ride of flavor.
undergrOund hit Spanish White Asparagus
Europeans go gaga for asparagus that’s snow white and thick as a thumb. In season, there are restaurants in Spain that devote whole menus to it. It’s tender and mild, the green-grass flavor we're used to is absent. In its place there’s a fine floral aroma, subtle and mild, and it sports a texture as soft as squash. White asparagus’s season is diabolically short and it doesn’t travel well—two conditions that have historically conspired to keep it for locals only. There is a canning tradition though. One of the best sources we’ve found for tinned white asparagus is in Spain’s Navarre valley. Serve warmed with a simple butter sauce or at room temperature alongside cured ham.

Italy's independent regions have their own wine styles, their own cuisine, and, to go with it, their own preference for how an olive oil should taste. In the south, on the ankle and heel of Italy's boot, the oils have a distinctive red-pepper zing. They lean toward the bolder side.
Peranzana from Molise
La Spineta from Puglia
The olive oil with Zingerman’s label is created by Marina Colonna on her ancient estate in the Molise, a little over 100 miles due east of Rome. Made from hand picked Peranzana olives pressed the same day they’re taken from the tree, it's hugely flavorful. The latest vintage has pleasing aromas of green tomato and freshly cut grass. The flavor has notes of artichoke and black olive. It finishes with mild green-olive bitterness and a bit of a peppery tickle. O-ZIN 500 ml $29
Pugliese oils get little credit on the international oil scene. But hidden in the shadows of the huge industrial producers are artisans like the Pellegrino family. I visited their farm a couple of years ago, and I keep coming back to their full-flavored extra virgin olive oil again and again. It’s especially good in spicy pasta dishes or any place you want a really robust olive flavor. The more I use this oil, the more I like it. O-SPI 500 ml bottle $25 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

In Northern Italy, near the sea, lighter oils are preferred. The olives are picked late, when they are black and sweet.
Roi Olive Oil from Liguria On the Italian Riviera, delicacy, not strength, brings an oil acclaim and honor. Roi is one of the best Ligurian oils I’ve tried. It’s been made in the mountain town of Badalucco by the Boeri family since 1900. Mellow yet rich in its unfiltered state, it’s delicately delicious, feathery light and perfect for pesto making. Its subtle, lingering flavors leave you smiling long after you’ve tasted it. I use it for dressing fresh fish or a delicate salad. O-ROI-500 500 ml $25 O-ROI 1 liter $40
In Central Italy, Tuscan oils are often bold and grassy. Podere di Pillore is softer this year, though, with just a whisper of pepper.
Podere di Pillore From the hills above Florence. Oil-maker Alberto Passigli gets the big picture and the details of olive-oil making right. The olive groves are on well-drained slopes and pruned vigorously by his foreman who’s been tending the trees for over five decades. Made entirely from Alberto’s own organic olives, the oil is stored in a series of traditional, antique terra cotta vessels, some over 100 years old. It’s hand bottled to order with labels printed at the venerable Florentine shop of Pineider, the source for Dickens’ stationery. It’s one of the only oils in Tuscany that was bottled in 2014 after a disastrous harvest. O-POD 500 ml $45 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

roadhouse bread french mouNtain
The house bread at our restaurant, Zingerman’s Roadhouse, and a local favorite. It’s based on an early New England recipe, made by combining rye flour and cornmeal with wheat. Anyone from an 18th century New Englander to Laura Ingalls Wilder would recognize and enjoy it today (it’s referred to in Little House on the Prairie as Rye ‘n’ Injun bread). The same goes for almost anyone I hand a slice to today. It’s got great crust and a soft, chewy center that has a slight sweetness from dark molasses, making it a hit with kids. Excellent with cream cheese and smoked salmon. B-ROA 1½ lb handmade loaf $9 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY
NAturaL sour staRters!
I’d have a tough time picking between this and Farm Bread for top spot on my European-style favorites list. French Mountain Bread has a chestnut colored crust nearly a quarter inch thick, a dense wheaty crumb inside and a toasty, long lasting flavor. It’s totally terrific for toasting. We offer it in two sizes, a ¾ kilo loaf (about 1.65 lbs) that’s good for munching and a 2 kilo (about 4½ lbs, illustrated) work of art. I love the 2K loaf. A good foot and a half across and four or five inches high, it’s decorated with a hand-cut “Z.” The size is significant because bigger loaves almost always taste better. Baked to last, you’ll still be enjoying 2K Mountain Bread ten days after the loaf has left our oven. B-MON-A ¾ kilo handmade loaf $12 B-MON-B 2 kilo handmade “Z” loaf $26 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY
farm bread
Imagine sitting around a French farmhouse table waiting for dinner. This would be the bread the family would serve. Like French pain au levain, it's a white-wheat mix made with a sour starter. Its crust is crisp, its flavor subtle and never tiring. The one and a half pound loaf is pictured, but the three pound round is my favorite. Cut into quarters and freeze what you don’t eat. B-FRM-RND 3 lb handmade round $15 B-FRM-LOF 1½ lb handmade loaf $9
paesano
Our most popular bread. Spreading out like the cap of a wild mushroom, its thin, snow white crust surrounds a soft, savory crumb filled with lots of holes (we work hard to put the holes in). This is the traditional bread of Puglia—the heel of Italy’s boot—and the best one to eat alongside a pasta dinner. Also recommended for ripping and dipping in olive oil. Heat it up and the crust gets crispy crackly fantastic. B-PAE 1½ lb handmade loaf $9 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

A cinnamon raisin bread with substance. A chewy, solid loaf where the flavor of the dough supports the freelancing of the Red Flame raisins and the racy scent of Indonesian cinnamon. Sweetened and moistened with a hint of clover honey. Makes sensational Sunday morning toast. B-CIN 1½ lb handmade loaf $10 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY
"Zingerman's Bakehouse makes a chocolate cherry bread that can be used as the base of the best French toast you've ever had in your life." Ed Levine, Serious Eats
pecan raisin
This bread has been like a chain reaction—someone serves it for brunch, and the next week their guests are calling us and buying it for themselves. Calling it dense is an understatement: a half pound of big, juicy Red Flame raisins and toasted pecans are baked into every loaf. The New York Times says our Pecan Raisin Bread "redefines the category." B-PEC 1¼ lb handmade loaf $16 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY
chOcolate CHerRy choCOlate sOurdough Craquelin
A chocolate lover's fantasy come true— the best Belgian and French chocolate and dozens of dried Michigan cherries. After a few minutes in the oven the chocolate chunks melt a bit and the aroma of cocoa fills the air. Spread it with a bit of sweet butter or set a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of a warm slice. You'll be sitting in front of the most decadent dessert you've had in years. B-CHO 1¼ lb handmade loaf $18
It’s simple: our sourdough bread stuffed with chunks of dark Belgian chocolate. Like most of the school children I know, I like to rip off a hunk and eat it as soon as I open the bag, but it's best when you pop it in the oven for about fifteen to twenty minutes. Your rooms will fill with sensuous smells—warm chocolate, good bread. Eat it as is. Or spread a layer of fresh ricotta or cream cheese on top. This is one loaf that's very hard to keep around the house. B-XSB 1 lb handmade loaf $10
The national bread of Belgium. It’s a buttery brioche rolled up with fresh orange zest and sugar cubes soaked in Grand Marnier®. The additions form a sweet swirl inside each slice like a cinnamon roll and their dark orange flavors seep into the surrounding dough. Some of our crew call it “coffeecake bread” which gets to the spirit of the loaf, though its texture is much lighter. B-QUE 1½ lb loaf $25

pePpered bacon farm
parmesan pepPEr heretic's loaf
We used to bake this on special occasions and we’d get so many orders we'd run out of bacon. It’s Farm Bread dough with Nueske’s Applewood Smoked Bacon and Tellicherry black pepper. Every bite has a bit of sourdough tang and a lot of the sweet, smoky meatiness of bacon, plus a little spice. I’m sure it makes great sandwiches, but I’ve never had a loaf around long enough to try.

new mexico green chile & cheDdar
My Italian friends would probably think this bread is heresy, but that’s their loss. It’s a natural for me because I love bread, parmesan and good black pepper. There’s a quarter pound of parmesan in every loaf, along with a load of cracked black peppercorns. Leaves your mouth pleasantly aroused from the heat of the pepper and salivating from the savory sweetness of the parmesan. It’s fantastic when toasted. B-PEP 1¼ lb handmade loaf $16
I love this bread: savory, lusty, delicious and dangerously close to addictive. Softly spicy, fire-roasted New Mexico green chiles and raw milk Nor'easter Cabot cheddar blended into the Bakehouse’s tangy Farm Bread. Great on its own or as an accompaniment to dinner. It’s especially good if you give it about twenty minutes in a 325 degree oven before you break it open so it’s nice and steamy when you crack the crust. B-CHI 1¼ lb handmade loaf $15

Traditional Jewish rye bread is still an endangered American species. Twenty-two years after we started baking them in Ann Arbor you'll still be hard pressed to find a loaf like them anywhere in the country. Believe it or not, most “rye bread” sold in America contains very little rye flour. These are different. These are breads like my grandparents ate in Eastern Europe: plenty of rye flour, a natural sour rye starter (not the usual canned shortcut) and lots of time to let the dough develop. They’re the breads I reach for to make a sandwich or to eat with cool butter and fresh oysters. A perfect pairing with corned beef.

There are no nuts in these loaves, just the classic charms: flour, cane sugar, real butter and fresh eggs, a touch of Madagascar vanilla and two freshly peeled bananas per loaf.

The loin is one of the leaner cuts on a pig which often leaves it lacking flavor. Not so with these. We’ve got a supply of loins from heirloom hogs that will knock your socks off.
Red Wattle Pork Loin Red Wattles are an old breed of pig that was raised for flavor, not fashion. A century or two ago you’d have found Red Wattle pork on tables in New Orleans where they were a popular pig, sporting meat that could pair well with the region’s full-flavored cooking. Today you might find Red Wattle in a few restaurants in New York and a couple other lucky cities. There was almost no supply for us home cooks. Until now. The pork comes from hogs that are raised impeccably. The pigs are not confined, have access to the outdoors, and never receive antibiotics or hormones. Loins without bone or in a rib rack ship frozen, arrive cool or frozen. M-HFR 5 rib rack, about 3½ lbs $80
Ibérico Bellota Fresh Shoulder The heirloom of heirloom pigs, the standard against which all great pork is measured. It’s very rare to find the meat fresh, ready for home cooking. That’s what we have hear. A tender cut of shoulder that, when roasted to medium rare, will make you swear you’re eating some crazy cross between a cow and a pig. It’s not. It’s all pig. And you’re in heaven. Roast in the oven. M-ISH about 1¼ lbs, boneless $100 FREE SHIPPING
Ibérico Bellota Cured Pork Loin From the acorn-fed Ibérico pigs whose diet has a magical effect on the meat’s texture. It seems to lower the fat’s melting point to body temperature. Eating a slice is like placing a piece of meat chocolate on your tongue. Ready to slice and eat. M-LOM about 1.1 lbs $150 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

We’re working with Heritage Foods to get a limited supply of big, fat, porterhouse pork chops. These chops have the strip and loin attached, joining at the bone like a T Bone steak. Each measures an inch and a quarter thick and tips the scales at fourteen ounces. It’s impressive to behold, magnificent to taste. Each breed of pig brings its distinct flavor and texture. The hogs are raised impeccably: not confined, they have access to the outdoors, and never receive antibiotics or hormones. Chops ship frozen, arrive cool or frozen.
Red Wattle Pork Chops
Duroc Pork Chops
Berkshire Pork Chops
The flavor is rich, herbaceous, even a little sweet. The crowning glory of Red Wattle pork is its fat. It marbles the meat and wraps the chop in a soft, opaque band. It melts within the meat and softens its edge to a luscious, lip-smacking bite. M-WAT-4 four 14 oz chops $80 M-WAT-8 eight 14 oz chops $140
If you’re looking for an earthy, nutty pork chop with loads of flavor you’ve found the right place. This is the fullest flavored chop we offer. It’s like a cow and a pig had a transgression and a new form of meat emerged. Incredibly tasty. M-DUR-4 four 14 oz chops $80 M-DUR-8 eight 14 oz chops $140
This is the most classic flavored of our pork chops, just with way more flavor. First made famous at Chez Panisse, the Berkshire chop is a showstopper, crowd-pleaser, and all around meat-lover's dream come true. M-BER-4 four 14 oz chops $80 M-BER-8 eight 14 oz chops $140

the iconoclast's next ride
Strip Steaks from BN Ranch
In the food world, Bill Niman’s name has long been synonymous with sustainably-raised pork and beef, he was an iconoclastic pioneer in the movement. No longer affiliated with Niman Ranch, these days he’s raising some of the most flavorful grass-fed and grass-finished beef I’ve ever tasted under the brand BN Ranch. Sometimes grass-fed beef can be hit or miss if there isn’t enough fat development. Not the case with Bill’s beef. These steaks have great marbling and taste, well, steak-ier than most. This is not a steak that's an apology for grass feeding. This competes with every great steak in the world, it's just made without feed lots, without hormones, without corn, without any bullsh*t. We've been working with Bill for years and this is the first time any of his steaks are available via mail order in America. Dig in. Bone in, two to a pack. Ships frozen, arrives frozen or cool. M-STK-4 4 steaks, bone in, 1¼" thick, 14-16 oz each $225 M-STK-8 8 steaks $400 FREE SHIPPING
the beef-lover's cut
Dry-Aged Cowboy Cut Ribeye Steaks This one ain’t for dainty eaters. Enormous ribeyes, nearly two-inches thick, each tipping the scales at about a pound and a half. The cowboy cut has a couple inches of bone sticking out, giving you a handle to hold onto the largest meat hammer you’ve ever seen. More than big enough to share, but so scrumptious you’ll want to keep it all to yourself. The cattle are raised to impeccable standards, grass-fed and grass-finished in Oregon. The beef is dry aged for two weeks which gives it a deep, mineral tang. Incredibly rich with a luscious marbling of fat. Ships frozen, arrives frozen or cool. M-RIB-2 2 steaks, bone-in, 2" thick, about 1½ lbs each $175 M-RIB-4 4 steaks, bone-in, 2" thick, about 1½ lbs each $320 FREE SHIPPING
chops, ribeye and burgers Heritage Meat Kit
Over and over, whenever I get to taste a food that is made traditionally, when beforehand I’ve only had its commercial counterpart, I’m stunned. It’s been true for bread, cheese, salt (yeah, salt) and dozens of other foods. The past year my mind has been blown by fresh meat. In particular, the pork and beef we’re getting from heritage breed animals raised outdoors, raised to root and roam, raised without hormones and antibiotics. In other words, raised the way every animal was raised in America until sometime in the 20th Century, when the switch flipped and what was normal is now an anomaly. Less than 1% of our country’s meat has a pedigree like this. After tasting meat from many different farms and sources, I can tell you they all don’t taste great, either—sometimes you pay for the animal husbandry but don’t get the flavor. We've done that work for you (I know, tough job, right). What we have here are some extremely tasty fixings. Two thick porterhouse pork chops, a gigantic cowboy cut ribeye, and a pound of ground beef, all shipped frozen anywhere in America for a night— or a week—of grilling you’ll never forget.

Desert Island Cheese Gift Box
You’re stranded on an desert island. You only have three cheeses (and presumably a refrigerator). Which ones are they? I asked this question to a number of good cheesemongers and the same cheeses kept popping up over and over so I figured I was on to something—a collection of cheeses so compelling the best cheesehounds I know would choose them above all others. The picks are classic well-aged Italian Parmigiano-Reggiano, real cloth-wrapped English cheddar from its birthplace in Southwestern England, and French Comté aged in the halls of Fort St. Antoine. We'll hand cut a half pound of each, house them in fabulous French cheese bags and nestle them in a box with crackers. Now go find that island. G-N-DES 3 cheeses plus crackers $75 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE
The Heathcliff Cheese Pairing
The French Tickles Cheese Pairing In the thickly forested mountains of Eastern France, winters are long, the food is hearty, and Comté cheese is king. They know what they’re doing. Here the bold mountain cheese is paired with French fig and walnut confit, which is a long-cooked jam. The walnuts are barely bitter, something the figs do their best to balance. A luscious pair, guaranteed to keep you and your lover snug as the chill seeps in the windows. G-FNK ½ lb cheese and confit in gift box $45
The affection between Bayley Hazen Blue cheese and Italian chestnut honey sets the standard for cheese pairings that Brontë did for lovers. They're from two different worlds, putting them together shouldn't make sense, but it does. Jasper Hill’s award-winning Bayley Hazen blue cheese and a jar of Northern Italian chestnut honey come nestled like lovebirds in our fun, illustrated gift box.

american cheESe renaiSsance American Cheese Club
Twenty years ago you could count the number of great American cheeses on two hands. Maybe that’s exaggerating, but not by much. Back then, being a small-scale cheesemaker was like being a beekeeper—a strange hobby with little reward or recognition. Half the cheesemakers crafted nearly identical tiny wheels of goat’s milk cheese, which, given that we had no American goat cheese tradition to speak of, cheese shops insisted on calling chèvre, the French word for goat. If you went into any serious cheese shop in America in 1994, chances are the only American cheeses you found were chèvres and cheddars. Have things ever changed. This monthly club celebrates some of our favorite cheesemakers. Some are new. Some of them have been around for a long time. And while their cheeses may not be traditional in the European sense of having been made the same way for over a century, they’re all made by hand, using traditional methods, often with milk from the herd they milk themselves, something fewer and fewer Europeans makers can claim.
Included in Every Shipment Profiles of the makers, serving tips, two cheeses totaling over one pound.
