Join the Flavor revolution

In the heart of Texas, where culinary innovation meets Southern hospitality, there’s a tale that began with a passion for good food and the perfect drink. It was in 2012 that Charlie Henderson, a connoisseur of flavors, and his wife, Darla Jean Henderson, affectionately known as DJ, embarked on a flavorful journey that would shape their destiny.

Driven by their shared love for experimenting with recipes and infusing them with a splash of spirits, the Henderson's set out to craft a cookbook unlike any other. Their vision? To create a collection of recipes that not only tantalized taste buds but also celebrated the art of pairing food and drink harmoniously. And thus, “Eat Responsibly Drink Like a Fish”™ was born, destined to become more than just a cookbook—it is becoming a trademark, a philosophy, and eventually, the cornerstone of their culinary empire.

While the cookbook itself remained a cherished dream, the spirit of innovation it ignited led to the birth of Charla Foods. Inspired by their friends’ playful nickname for the Henderson's—Charla, a nod to Hollywood glamour with a Texan twist—the brand emerged, symbolizing warmth, creativity, and a touch of whimsy. And what better emblem to represent their culinary adventures than a fish, a playful nod to their feline family members, who inspired their journey in more ways than one.

But Charla Foods is more than just a whimsical name and a charming logo—it’s a testament to years of dedication, relentless experimentation, and an unwavering love for the craft. Every product that bears the Charla Foods label is a labor of love, meticulously crafted and perfected through countless hours of testing, tasting, and refining. From savory sauces infused with the rich flavors of Texas barbecue to decadent desserts laced with the finest liqueurs, each offering is a testament to the Henderson's’ commitment to quality, flavor, and innovation.
