The Peptaste® Story
In 1946, lifelong Angola, New York resident Helen Miller and her friend Peter Gust Economou, the maître d’hotel and manager of Buffalo’s Park Lane Restaurant, created Peptaste®—with its secret blend of herbs and spices—for use in the legendary restaurant.
Since then, Peptaste® has been available mainly in family roadside produce stands and locally-owned shops. Over the years Peptaste has gathered a small but loyal—and often fanatical—customer base.
Many of our customers grew up with Peptaste on their parents’ and grandparents’ tables. Now, the Buffalo diaspora has us sending Peptaste all over the globe. And our loyal following is growing well beyond native Buffalonians. Everyone who tries it loves it!
We’re frequently told, “meals just aren’t right without Peptaste on the table.”
“My buddy Douglas Harwood in Buffalo sent me some ‘Peptaste,’ his Family’s business since 1946. And man, I’m hooked!
“It’s a mixture of salt, onion, garlic, and herbs...and I’m not lying, it’s good on just about anything you put it on. I’ve kind of become addicted to putting it on my eggs, especially! Like most things that have been in business for over 70 years, there’s a reason they’re still in business. Check it out if you want to pep up your taste!”
