There are quite a few things that make Cornbread stand out from the rest of the brands in the industry. One of the most impressive things is that Cornbread makes their products with USDA organic, plant-based ingredients from Kentucky, a state known for having some of the best environmental conditions that allow for superior farming practices. But it’s no coincidence that Cornbread is based out of Kentucky. The brand was co-founded by journalist Jim Higdon, a Kentucky native and one of the Bluegrass State’s most celebrated journalist. Jim is perhaps best known for his 2012 best-seller The Cornbread Mafia, an action-packed nonfiction book that details the true story of a syndicate of outlaw Kentucky farmers. Higdon’s passion for Kentucky’s rich agricultural tradition led him to create Cornbread to honor its history. That’s why all Cornbread products are made with the purest natural ingredients obtained from organic Kentucky farms.
