The Foodocracy

A mouthful of wonderment and joy. I really like just having one every once in a while as an afternoon or ‘must have something sweet’ treat.

This hot sauce has just the right amount of zing - not too hot, not too mild. I had it over eggs, mixed it into tuna salad, also potato salad. They were all yummy! I'll have to try it on deviled eggs next.

I love the really old-style southern cornbread: just cornmeal, eggs, fat and buttermilk (with a little baking soda and powder) cooked in a hot cast iron skillet. I've made cornmeal twice now with this delicious stuff and mm mm mm it's every bit as good as me the cornbread I used to eat at my grandma's in Mississippi. Real corn flavor, just coarse enough that you get that crunchy crust. Buy some and try it yourself!

The variety gives a compelling overview of what this multi-dimensional product can be. It’s like taking a trip by way of the types of honey. Nicely done Foodocracy.

Well everyone loves it! Nutty crunchy simple to prepare quickly on the table and it's GONE! I did add extra wild rice to increase the ratio and we enjoyed the increased nuttiness. Made it with mushrooms onions and didn't need any oil or butter to add or saute veggies. Say yea

Receiving the bean and grain club shipment is a treat each month. I could not be more pleased with the thoughtful collection of items that arrive. Outstanding variety of interesting products, each one is eye opening, as well as so useable and delicious. The flavors and quality of the products are an improvement to our household and quality of life.

I have previously had pinto beans only from a can and was never a fan, but the description convinced me to try these. Wow what a difference. These are delicious with a nice texture firm but creamy. My favorite way to eat them besides in quinoa veggie bowls has been on toast - mashed a little with green onions and garlic.

I received a pound of these in my Slow Food Box, and used them to make stewed Mexican beans. I always taste a bean or two after soaking, so I know what I'm dealing with. That test is usually pretty neutral ("yep, it's a bean.") These Jacob's Cattle Gold beans were good even at that point! My whole family loved the dinner; one daughter and my husband actually called out the taste of the beans themselves. That's a first. I'm ordering more and am looking forward to exploring other varieties.

Thank you Foodocracy for supporting the Slow Food Movement! I won this incredible flight of Ark of Taste honey in the Slow Food USA raffle, which Foodocracy had donated in support of the Slow Food Resilience Fund for small farmers and food businesses. Each honey is delicious in its own completely unique way. My family loved going through the tasting and information packet describing each honey together -- it was so special and felt luxurious to taste honeys that are so rare and difficult to produce. An excellent present for anyone who needs a pick-me-up -- and a great excuse to have a party with your pod. Highly recommend!

Quality products, good prices, quick shipping. Perfect!

I absolutely love the unique ingredients in the quarterly Slow Food box!! Keep them coming!!

I was so impressed with the products offered in the Slow Food box that I bought 4 for Christmas gifts. All recipients have been very pleased. I will definitely be checking out other seasonal offerings.

These beans are really good! I’m new to Rancho Bean, but now I want a pot of beans on my stove all the time.

Have to say, wasn't sure about the Cider Jelly since I don't eat jelly. But was fabulous as a glaze on my roasted vegetables!! Added a tangy kick and lovely sheen. Can't imagine roasting vegetables without it now!

This is outstanding. I received it and immediately made a grilled cheese sandwich with this included (cheddar, sharp). Comfort food is called for these days but this did zhuzh it up, just as suggested! Spouse raved about the one bite I shared, too. ;)
