MADE WITH LOVE

Our Story

Two generations and one beloved recipe. Jamie took her grandmother's cheese straw recipe and turned it into Janis & Melanie — a business her children now run. Nearly 40 years later, we still use real butter, real cheese, and simple ingredients, nothing artificial, because for us, food has always meant love.

We are from the South originally. So happy we found these at In Season in Bentonville Arkansas and reminded us how we missed my Mother-in-law’s cheese straws.

The cheese straws and the service is the best!

Melody B.Verified Buyer

Best cheese straws I’ve ever eaten.
