Bridgeport Kitchen was recently approved for a Processed Food Registration certification by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), and is now a fully-licensed commercial food production facility.

Bridgeport Kitchen has been producing quality snack products for just under one year, and is pleased to already have distribution through local retail partners – Sundance Whole Foods, Tioga Gas Mart, Mono Market, High Sierra Bakery, Manor Market, and Stellar Brew.

Co-Owners Barry Beck and Dori Leyen explain how their enterprise began:

As full-time residents of the Eastern Sierra, we live a life of adventure. Skiing, biking, hiking, climbing, and all activities out of doors – living what we felt was a “healthy” lifestyle.

However, after a routine physical led to some eye-opening results, the physician’s recommendation for a low carb, high fat diet, and a coincident article titled Is the High-Fat, Low-Carb Ketogenic Diet Right for You? in a well-respected outdoor magazine, led to an almost overnight change in eating habits and diet.”

While Beck and Leyen embraced their new eating plan of low carb/high fat foods, they found that a key component that was lacking was a quality snack.  After searching the markets, specialty stores and on-line, they also discovered their options were very limited.

So, we decided to try to create our own perfect snack cracker,” Beck continues. “And after a lot of trial and error, we have created a truly healthy cracker that has a growing fan base, and we call them Pywiack Krackers (PKs).”

With only 4 ingredients and organic seasoning, Beck and Leyen report that their hearty, savory crackers fill many different special dietary needs.   Low in carbs, high in fat, gluten free, with a low glycemic index, PKs are perfect for vegetarians, diabetics, and those on a paleo, vegan, or ketogenic diet. They are also available in four delicious flavors – Savory, Traditional (Trad), Savory Trad, and Alpine.

For all the reasons above, Beck and Leyen are excited to introduce everyone to Pywiack Krackers on May 23rd for the grand opening/ribbon-cutting ceremony at Bridgeport Kitchen.
