SOMEBODY PINCH ME!! We’ve officially launched SOMEBODY PINCH ME!! We’ve officially launched @terraneanherbs with our newest retail partner, MACY’S!!!! @macys And right in time for @zaatar_day #zaatarday this month! I’ve spent years (seriously, over a decade), teaching people about za’atar, an integral part of our Lebanese and Middle Eastern heritage. Za’atar to me isn’t just a pantry staple in our home, it is part of my identity as a Lebanese American and a positive aspect of our heritage that we all continue to promote and pride ourselves in. I know you all, like me, would fill your suitcases with za’atar to bring it from back home. Because nothing is like teita’s za’atar! I am so happy to work with a woman co-owned and operated za’atar business in Lebanon to import authentic Lebanese za’atar to the United States, where I make and distribute my products. AUTHENTICITY- who determines authenticity? We all do, through our own experiences. What is authentic to me may not be authentic to someone else, but I know that my za’atar blends and spreads are exactly like the ones I grew up enjoying, on za’atar mnakish freshly made on a sajj dome, by my grandma in Aabrine. I use an imported, high-quality Middle Eastern extra virgin olive oil for my spreads and I sell them in high-quality Italian glass jars intentionally. I wanted to create a product that was so beautiful that it would attract people who are unfamiliar with za’atar to give it a try. I also wanted to create a high-quality product that I would be proud gifting to others. 0 fillers. 0 preservatives. Thank you so much for your continued support. Tag your za’atar loving family and friends to help me spread the word!!🥰♥️😄 More + links in my @yourlebanon IG stories!

That one egg was the lucky egg 😅 Here’s our new tiktok page https://www.tiktok.com/@terraneanherbs 🥰 (direct link in IG bio)

Thank you for being here with me. I’m so thankful for the friends I’ve made ☺️♥️ Tina
