October is Filipino American History Month, a time to celebrate an important part of American history, identity, culture and stories that bridge two worlds. At Spread The Love Foods, that narrative is woven into every jar. As a Filipina American woman entrepreneur, I created this brand not just for health-conscious families, but for athletes who deserve clean, plant-based, high-protein fuel they can trust.
A Founder’s Promise: Crafted by One, For Many
Growing up Filipino American, food was never just fuel — it was culture, community, and love. But when I stepped into health, fitness and sports, I saw how many of my peers struggled with protein snacks that were loaded with fillers, seed oils, or fake “natural and healthy” claims.
That’s when Sports dietitian-approved Spread The Love nut butter packets were born: on-the-go nutrition, made with one clean ingredient, rigorously tested, and crafted in small batches. Because our bodies deserve better than shortcuts.
For athletes and active families, whether hooping, running, swinging, or lifting, our almond butter and peanut butter packets deliver protein fuel that’s clean, convenient, and satisfying.
