Joy Of Garlic

Joy Of Garlic Simple and delish recipes. Healthy and incredible spreads, sauces, dips, and dressings. Great food has JOY written all over it. We would love to hear from you.

It’s the smell of salt air and the sound of gentle waves from the sea. It’s the delicious scents of food on the grill. It’s a large table, surrounded by friends and family. It’s health, happiness, and the pursuit of the good life. Bring home the everyday gourmet taste of the Mediterranean with Joy’s International Food ingredients – all it takes is one taste and you’ll find out why great food has Joy written all over it. It's not rocket science, but for our founder, former Aerospace Engineer Jean Najjar, the creation of Joy's International Foods is a dream come true. Named after his daughter Joy and based on a family recipe from his Grandfather, Jean brought the taste of the Mediterranean to America's table. After the secret mix of garlic and spices grew in popularity with his friends and family, he took the plunge and began producing Garlic Spreads at local gourmet markets in Melbourne, FL in early 2003. Our 100% natural dips, dressings, spreads, and sauces come from family recipes, traditional and new, so we can share our love in every one of our offerings. Many of our products are Vegetarian / Vegan, Free of preservatives, Dairy-free, No added sugar, Low sodium, Cholesterol-free, Trans-fat-free, and Gluten-free. While there are numerous known health benefits, they are outmatched by Joy's International Food's remarkable taste. Our Pasta Sauces and Salsas have less than 70mg of sodium, and NO sugar added. Our Mediterranean specialties are like no others in flavor and purity. Our Garlic Spreads can be used to spice up any recipe, from seasoning meats, stews, and vegetables to spreading on sandwiches, wraps, and breads. Our products pack the delicious and nutritious benefits of pure fresh garlic – more than 20 bulbs per jar in a creamy spread that dissolves easily and tastes great! Joy's Gourmet is always developing new products and will continue to introduce new healthy creations from the same Mediterranean region. We continue to share our passion through a family of representatives at local Farmer's Markets. Each representative provides product demonstrations and informative training on our products with endless health benefits and uses. Please contact us if you have any questions or would like to explore selling Joy's Gourmet products at your Farmer's Market or local retailer.

A tribute to quilted artistry. I was amazed by the beauty and intricate details of all the quilts on display at The Jacksonville Quilt Festival, showcasing the incredible talent and craftsmanship of quilters from around the world. As I walked through the vibrant exhibits, I was struck by the beauty, creativity of so many artists.
The Jacksonville Quilt Festival was a true celebration of textile art, and I left feeling inspired and in awe of the quilters' talent.

At the Quilt Fest, Jacksonville Prime Osborn Center, we thank our local customers for their continued support.
