== Founders == '''Meet Abe.''' True Made Foods was founded by Abe Kamarck, a Navy Veteran and father of four. Abe and his wife are both Veterans and former athletes, and they knew the importance of their kids eating healthy veggies and avoiding sugar. However, one product persisted to be part of their weekly dinners: ketchup. Abe was not a fan of ketchup, knowing it had more sugar per ounce than ice cream, but he couldn’t get his kids to give it up... so, he made a better one. Abe had grown up making pasta sauce with his Sicilian mother who always used carrots as the sweetener. He wondered—couldn't that process also work for ketchup? Turns out, it does. '''Meet our Pitmaster.''' Known as “The Pitmaster” in barbecue circles, Ed Mitchell has been cooking traditional whole-hog barbecue since he was a teenager in Wilson, NC. When his father became ill, Ed returned to Wilson to help his mom in the family store. By accident they started selling their family-recipe whole hog BBQ and ended up launching a BBQ revolution. The Southern Food Alliance hailed Ed's 'Cue as the most authentic in the South. And in 2000, Peter Kaminsky, author of Pig Perfect, introduced Ed to the superior taste of free-ranging pigs raised on traditional foods. Ed was convinced that this was the taste of his youth he’d been searching for, and worked with local Universities to encourage the growth of pasture raised hogs. In 2017, Ed and his son, Ryan, turned down larger food brands to partner with True Made Foods, because as a pre-diabetic, Ed became concerned with the amount of sugar that has leaked into our diets and how it was affecting his community and Ryan, a former college athlete, believed in the mission of turning BBQ into a superfood. Ed and Abe are both veterans and both share a passion for better food and the preservation of our culinary traditions.
