Jan 28, 2025

We’ve got some exciting news to share! EAT G.A.N.G.S.T.E.R. was recently featured on the "Wake Up and Read the Labels" podcast, hosted by the incredible Jen Smiley. This episode, titled "EAT GANGSTER: The Secret to Guilt-Free Baking with Heather McDonough & Kerry Brown," gave us the opportunity to highlight our journey, mission, and the magic behind our allergy-friendly baking mixes.

For those who might not know, EAT G.A.N.G.S.T.E.R. was born out of a passion for creating allergen-friendly, gut-healthy treats that taste amazing. Our products are not just about avoiding allergens—they’re about embracing the joy of eating and living without compromise. So when Jen invited us onto her podcast, it was the perfect platform to share our story with a community equally passionate about clean eating and better living.

Highlights From the Episode

In the podcast, co-founders Heather McDonough and Kerry Brown sat down with Jen to dive into a range of topics, including:

  • The Origin Story: Heather and Kerry shared how their personal health journeys and struggles with food sensitivities inspired the creation of EAT G.A.N.G.S.T.E.R. They discussed the challenges of finding delicious, safe options for those navigating autoimmune protocols, gluten-free diets, and more, and how this need sparked the idea for their first baking mix.

  • What’s in a Name? The unique name, EAT G.A.N.G.S.T.E.R., stands for Grain-free, Artificial Additive-free, Nightshade-free, Gluten-free, Soy & Seed -free, Tree Nut & Peanut-free, Egg & Dairy-free, and Real Food—a mouthful (literally!) of all the ways our mixes are free from allergens while still being full of flavor.

  • The Joy of Guilt-Free Treats: One of the best parts of the conversation was hearing the host rave about how our products allow people to enjoy baked goods again without the usual guilt or worry. Whether you’re following an AIP (Autoimmune Protocol), paleo, or simply clean eating, we’ve got something for you.

  • Building a Business That Cares: Heather and Kerry shared the heart behind their company—a desire to empower people to reclaim the joy of baking and eating with loved ones, regardless of dietary restrictions. They also touched on the importance of creating products that are not only health-conscious but also indulgently satisfying.
