Finicky Foods products stem from the love of our home state of North Carolina and the joy of Southern snack foods. Our flavors come from a place of curiosity, fun and familiarity.

Meticulously crafted recipes in sustainable packaging.

You’ll recognize brand favorites like Duke’s Mayonnaise and Philadelphia Cream Cheese in our list of ingredients, with no additional preservatives. Herbs and spices are sourced from Harmony House Foods in Western NC, Savory Spice Shop Charlotte and other NC artisans.
