VeganHood, the break-out 100% plant-based restaurant and bar located on Harlem’s Restaurant Row, has launched their VeganHood seasoning, sauce, and tea product line. Inspiring co-owners, Janine Smalls-Gueye and Lanise Herman-Thomas, who are fulfilling their mission to “veganize without compromise” by serving healthy and delicious vegan Soul Food and Caribbean favorites, have made it possible for customers to enjoy some of these same flavors in their own kitchens! A portion of the VeganHood product line profits will be included in their “eat for a cause” mission of donating to the 501(c)(3) nonprofit that Smalls-Gueye and Herman-Thomas co-founded in 2017, Young Excellence Society, providing Harlem youth after-school and mentorship programs.
