What the heck is a food fella?
Hello! My name is Anna and I am the creator and founder of Food Fellas! So, what the heck IS a Food Fella? Where do they come from and how did they manage to make their way onto greeting cards??
Food Fellas started in my very own apartment fridge. I was going for a good ol’ fashioned midnight snack. Upon opening my humble, rather bare, apartment fridge when I had just moved into Atlanta, the only thing that caught my eye was a half-opened frozen bag of tater tots. It was as if that food was looking straight back at me. It was a funny thought, but I couldn’t help but imagine a world in which our food could actually stare back at us from the fridge. The idea was too cute to just sleep away. The next day, my fridge came to life. The original Food Fella, the tater tot, was given a pair of googly eyes and got his very own photoshoot. I was able to combine my love for photography and love for food to fill my conveniently urgent need for Christmas cards. I picked my friends and family’s favorite foods. Some more tater tots, a watermelon, a sushi roll, and a block of cheese later, the first Food Fellas cards were produced and were a holiday hit. So, I thought to myself, why stop there? I slowly came up with more and more ideas and began creating more and more cards for all occasions. I made more improvements like using edible glue so I never waste the food I use, coming up with more funny clever scenes, and purchasing better quality lenses for my camera. Food Fellas are proud to serve as both nourishment AND encouragement to you and your loved ones. Thank you for your interest and support in this endeavor, and know that Food Fellas is here to support you as well! Peruse our collection online, and if you don’t see the food or occasion you had in mind, reach out on the contact page. We would be more than happy to customize and fill your needs!

Anna
