Parve, Dairy-Free Products
When you can't find the product you need − there is only one thing to do − create it yourself. And that is exactly what Kelly Coffin did. Growing up on his grandparent's dairy farm, Kelly was raised on dairy products – dairy farming has been in his family for generations. When he had a family of his own and found out that they needed to immediately eliminate all dairy from their diet, it was complicated. Kelly and his wife spent time trying alternative non−dairy products and nothing measured up.. So out of necessity, their goal was to create a safe, natural, dairy-free product – their requiremens were that the products had to be delicious, nutritious, healthy, non-dairy, and not contain any strange ingredients found in so many alternative products. Wayfare Foods was launched in 2009, in Bozman, Montana. Today, WayFare’s products include dairy free cheeses, dips, sour cream, and more. The products are gluten free, vegan, soy free, cholesterol free, non GMO and kosher certified under the Vaad Hakashrus of Montana.
We sampled several of Wayfare Foods products.
Some of our favorites include the meltable dips: Cheddar, Guacamole, Nacho Cheddar, Jalapeno Dip. We enjoyed these over our "nacho pizza"(tortilla chips, corn, olives and ground beef); as toppings for our cheese fries; and in a "faux dairy" mac and cheese casserole. Bottom line- if you can imagine it, you can substitute these products.
The non-dairy sour cream is perfect for baking and adding to recipes when we want a parve, creamy sauce. Try our delicious No-Boil Noodle Kugel, Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Cake, and our signature Beef Stroganoff
WayFare products taste very much like "real thing" and are a good alternative for those who are on special diets. They are excellent for the kosher cook who can use the cheese and sour cream products as recipe substitutions when serving a meat meal. Check out the recipes on the WayFare website.

Wine to Toast 5780
10 Wines to Toast the New Year
Looking back through the 20th century, sweet wines such as Manischewitz or Mogen David concord wines were found on just about every Jewish Yom Tov table. However, due to the entrepreneurial vision of the Herzog family, hundreds of kosher wines are now available and enjoyed year round. The kosher wine palette has become selective and sophisticated . Kosher wines are produced and enjoyed from vineyards and wineries around the world including Italy, New Zealand, Australia, Spain, France, Argentina, Chile, and of course, Israel and California.
As Yom Tov approaches, we will be presenting a series of articles, and highlighting some wine favorites. The reviews and descriptions include those by experts, wine vintners and KosherEye tasters.
Gabe Geller, Director of PR and Wine Education Manager for Royal Wine, recently shared some of his wine insights and observations. He reports that " the new releases, produced by innovative newcomers and venerated estates alike, are really something to get excited about. "Whether we’re talking about Herzog wines from California, Terra di Seta wines from Tuscany, Elvi wines from Spain, or Netofa from Israel, it’s clear that today’s kosher wines can compete with any other top-rated label. Quality is everything. Drinking kosher wine is no longer a compromise in quality.”
