Peachy's Pantry: True Made Foods, Where Have You Been All Our Life? True Made Foods Ketchup, BBQ Sauce and Veracha Sauce All Earn Whom You Know's Highest Recommendation.

The last time we were SO EXCITED about condiments, they were by our pal Whip from Vermont Harvest!  True Made Foods lives up to every aspect of its name and is by far the most impressive Peachy's Pantry brand to be considered by our panel in quite some time.  Listen to our brilliant panelists absolutely rave:

The BBQ sauce rang true in its intrinsic BBQ sauce nature and I loved that it had the extra vitamins per serving. It tasted absolutely fabulous on both burgers and chicken legs. The ketchup tasted different from typical ketchups, with a more tangy, sophisticated taste.  Even my 6 and 2 year-olds loved it and did not even ask for the regular ketchup that was sitting on the table. 
The varacha sauce had a pleasant, mildly spicy taste that was enough to give the food some kick, but was not overwhelming. I would definitely use it to make this meal again and I look forward to its endeavor in new culinary hits on my dinner table.

I paired this True Make Vegetable Ketchup with hot dogs where I experienced and enjoyed a fresh tomato flavor. Most ketchups contain corn syrup and taste "vinegary"but I'm pleased to say not True Made Vegetable Ketchup! It's hard to believe that it comes in a bottle, so "fresh-tasting". Not only is it good for you, but it's also delicious with its elevated notes of nutrition.  
True Made BBQ Sauce is smooth with a sweet, smoky flavor. It is full of vegetables and actually is good for you. I love the fact that there are no artificial ingredients or corn syrup, which is a great find for a healthier option. This True Made BBQ sauce is so versatile that you can pair it not only with pork, but also with chicken or beef.  
Veracha Hot Sauce is quite tasty with a medium heat "kick", so that you can savor the flavor combination of ingredients. I used this smooth, all-natural veracha hot sauce as a dipping sauce for turkey kielbasa and mozzarella sticks. I enjoyed the garlic flavor as well as all the other "natural" ingredients all commingled to enhance my dining experience!


True Made sauce is the perfect condiment for people trying to cut sugar from their diet without losing flavor! Since coming off a 10-day green smoothie cleanse to jump start a healthy new year, I have been ultra-focused on whole foods while I listen to Peachy torture me with her dinner reviews.  With True Made Foods, I can be decadent in taste and flavor yet still be committed to my health; since I was a professional athlete back in the day this is especially important to me.  Plain chicken has been very boring until I discovered true made bbq sauce which eliminates the evil corn syrup and replaces it with vegetables which gives my plain boring chicken a burst of flavor.  It is like a superhero at dinner!  True Made will make my diet/life style changes attainable by not feeling like I am missing out on flavor, so I am thrilled.

First of all, no kids like fresh vegetables at all especially Carrots, Spinach and Butternut Squash. I have to tell you, trying True Made Foods naturally sweetened products was so awesome! How is it possible for something to be that healthy for you and taste that good?  Of course Peachy found this and put us to the wonderful test.  
I have a Chicken recipe using ketchup, soy sauce and honey. I mix them all together and slow cook for about 5 hours, but this time I used True Made Foods ketchup and what a positive difference it made. I also topped it off with a little BBQ Sauce before serving. It was a hit. The flavor was so good!  
The True Made Veracha sauce was also very good and different. I added just a little to my barbecued hotdogs and Bam!!! great heat and real great flavor.  I’m not by any means a health nut, and it’s hard to believe that True Made Foods can make 3 great products with no fat, 45 mg of sodium, and 3 grams of sugars and it tastes that damn good. I’m sold !! The next time I visit the grocery store I will pick up a few bottles ( Ketchup, BBQ Sauce and Veracha, each one…)
