From Bake Sales to International Sales Around the Globe

So, she teamed up with Carol Podolak to create a delicious, homemade peanut butter as a healthier fundraiser option. They quickly realized they were onto something big when customers couldn't get enough and started asking for it year-round. Before they knew it, their kitchens couldn't keep up with the growing fan base, and BNutty was born!
