Summary

#37: In today's episode, I am chatting with two of my favorite humans! The Co-founders of Wild Friends Foods, Erika Welsh + Keeley Tillotson. I have known these two amazing ladies now for years and they are truly the kindest most bad ass nut butter makers out there. They not only make the best creamy drizz-able peanut butter in the world but they use the most simple ingredients to do so in all of their products. In this episode, Erika and Keeley fill us in on how they started their brand, what it is like working with your best friend, going on Shark Tank, stopping school to grow their company and ALL the things on nut butter and more. Don't forget to use the code RACHL for free shipping when you stock up on their nut butters! Thank you MegaFood for sponsoring today's episode. I personally have been buying MegaFood’s products for over 6 years now and am obsessed with the brand. All of MegaFood’s products are non-GMO, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan or vegetarian and SOY-FREE (something that is really rare in vitamins and supplements believe it or not).

0:00.0	Hello everyone. Welcome back to Just the Good Stuff. This is your host, Rachel Mansfield. I am a recipe developer,
0:11.7	cookbook author, wife, mama, and lover of all things, creamy peanut butter, bagels with locks,
0:19.0	chocolate chip banana bread, and like a really, really, really
0:22.4	good pizza. Ideally, all in the same day, police. It only seems fitting to share a few of my
0:30.1	absolute favorite foods with you guys this week since the co-founders of my favorite, favorite,
0:36.8	favorite, favorite creamy peanut butter in the entire world
0:39.8	are on the podcast today. You guys, let's give a huge welcome and hello to Keeley and Erica,
0:46.3	the founders of Wild Friends Foods. Wild Friends makes the most delicious nut and seed
0:52.3	butters in the entire world. They have been my go-to
0:55.8	since before I even had a food blog, which you'll hear Eric and I even talk about in the episode.

1:34.1	are just the sweetest humans in the entire world. They are the makers of my go-to peanut butter,
1:38.9	to drizzle, spoon, bake with, and now Jordan and Ezra are also as obsessed as I am. Literally I fight Jordan because he
1:47.2	uses like half a jar of peanut butter in his smoothies. I'm like Jordan we need to slow down.
1:52.3	I need this for baking. He apparently needs it in his smoothie concoction that has 75 other ingredients in it.
1:58.6	Needless to say, we go through jars like there is no tomorrow. And if you
