She saw a problem with the way the current food, healthcare, and agricultural systems work, and she wanted to contribute to change them for the better.

Days Off Bites are made with clean ingredients you know & trust. They’re infused with superfoods, which consumers can enjoy daily without the stomach ache, sugar crash, or guilt that come with mainstream chocolate--because consumers deserve a day off from all that stress.
