Tired of coming up short when searching for a tasty & healthy snack that worked for her food allergic son, Jenny set out to bake something up herself.  After a bit of trial and error and some encouragement from friends, Jenny realized that what she came up with to support her own family, was something she could bring to the masses.

Made in a dedicated peanut free, certified gluten free facility, Kip's Granola Bark has made it's way into grocery stores, onto Amazon and, most recently, the San Diego airport.

On the verge of scaling up, I was honored to find my way into Jenny's busy schedule, and enjoyed an inspiring conversation.  Listen in as we food allergy moms talk a little shop.

Irreverent and bitter, with maybe a little light swearing, Holly Bayardo says what we’re all thinking.  Her journey into the complex and confusing world of allergies offers insight for all of us, whether we are a little sneezy, or could die from ingesting a single sesame seed.  Without being afraid to say things like, “…big pharma is working against us,” Holly’s raw, unfiltered, viewpoint is refreshing and much needed.  As the mom of a daughter with complex & terrifying food allergies, Holly is deep in the trenches of what seems to have become an outbreak of illness for this generation of children.  In her experience, just the word - ALLERGY - has become a lightning rod for controversy and confusion. 

Why this curious spike?  With her “laugh so I don’t cry…”  approach, sprinkled with a fantastic line up of guests, Holly hopes her experience on the front lines with this epidemic will help answer that question and more.
