Fortunas Kitchen History

Calabria Italy, 1935 - The Journey Starts

Fortunas Kitchen, a household name, with ingredients you can actually read and pronounce. Just like our ingredients that you can read, Fortuna is actually my last name, so you may ask, what does this have to do with anything? Well, just like our ingredients, I'm transparent and proud to stand behind my product, not hiding in the shadow. We believe here at Fortunas Kitchen that "Food is Fuel" so you need to choose your fuel wisely. Imagine going on a road trip in your car that uses gasoline and you decide that today you will be using Diesel. Well, you'll make it a few miles, and then you'll break down. You had fuel, just not the right fuel to get you to your destination.

Whether you're an athlete fueling his workouts or a mother cooking for the children, just like Nonna did for me, you should be fueling yourself, or the future generation of this world with ingredients you can ACTUALLY PRONOUNCE. Yes, you can tell that I am passionate about all of our Fortunas Kitchen products but that's because we have been perfecting our recipe since 1935 in Italy. That's right, no it's not a typo, our roots go all the way back to Calabria, Italy. My mother, Teresa, was my idol when it came to food, she is to this day the best cook I've ever had the privilege of dining with. She not only raised us in our small home in Calabria with hardly two cents to scratch together, but taught us how to use healthy ingredients on a budget and the reason why using nothing but the purest ingredients can create a healthier, more improved human being in all of us.
