	Bear-Man Specialty Sauces and Seasonings www.bear-man.com 716-829-9536	I am a self-taught “foodie” who has enjoyed cooking since I was a kid. I’ve always loved to get in the kitchen and start throwing things together. In the last few years, however, I got more serious about developing my own original recipes and pursuing my dream of working in the food industry. I am addicted to Bear-man Sap-happy sauce. It has a taste all its own that adds an extra zing to almost any food. I like to pour it over cream cheese and dip crackers. My favorite is dipping chicken or ribs but I even put it on my potatoes, mashed or baked. Just can't get enough! - Kansas City Barbeque Society Judge, Tim Phillips I just purchased the rub and a sauce at the Boston Wine Expo and tried them this past weekend on burgers. The flavor is fantastic and I am recommending these products to everyone. Thanks for having samples at the show and encouraging me to try them. I will be purchasing more in the future. - Donald Sutherland
	Choctal www.choctal.com	Choctal has a mission. We want to raise America's awareness and appreciation of good chocolate. Chocolate made with high percentage cacao is loaded with antioxidants, natural mood enhancers and is good for you! Good chocolate, like fine wine and good coffee, tastes different. The flavor profiles are based primarily on the varietals of the cacao, (Criollo, Forastero, or Trinitario), but more than 35 countries grow the cacao from which chocolate is made, and each growing region produces cacao beans with subtle flavor nuances. Additionally, as with coffee beans and grapes, flavor is affected by harvesting and fermentation methods. Drying cacao beans and coffee beans can be accomplished different ways and this too affects the taste. Even more flavor variations bloom during the roasting process. There are chocolate flavors most of you have never experienced. Choctal's quest is to find and bring to our consumers, the most delicious, robust, essential chocolate flavor profiles the world has to offer. After extensive tasting, sampling, and experimentation (poor us!), with cocoa powders, chocolates, bars, truffles, we've discovered that ice cream is a perfect medium for showing off different flavor profiles of named origin cocoa powders. And since vanilla has always gone hand in hand with chocolate, we would like to share what we've learned about great vanilla too.
