The BOOMCHICKAPOP® story is nothing short of fantastical. And would you believe it all started in a cold, Minnesota garage? Dan and Angie Bastian wanted to do something fun with their kids, while showing them the value of hard work. The dedicated Spanish teacher and nurse practitioner soon turned their amazing kettle corn recipe into a BOOMing business. Sold at local events, this popcorn quickly caught the eye and more importantly, the taste buds of The Vikings*. The rest, as they say, is history.
Where Food Comes From, Inc., is an independent, third-party food verification company. To put it simply: We are the ultimate food nerds! We care about food, how it`s grown and raised, the quality of what we eat, what farmers and ranchers do, and authentically telling that story to you. We visit farms and ranches and look at their plants, animals, and records, and compare all of the information we collect to specific standards or claims they want to make about how they are producing food. We strive each and every day to ensure that everyone involved in the food business—from growers and farmers to retailers and shoppers—can count on Where Food Comes From, Inc., to provide authentic and transparent information about the food we eat and how, where, and by whom it is produced.
