Cheese with Altitude
Park City Creamery combines Belgian cheese-making techniques with the Utah terroir. Fromager Corinne Zinn has created a line of European-style artisan cheeses sourced from cow and goat milk from local Utah dairy farms. Each cheese is carefully crafted in small batches, allowing each cheese’s natural flavors shine. What sets Park City Creamery cheeses apart from many others is their unique floral and mountain fresh notes, which can only be found at high altitudes in Utah. Each Park City Creamery artisan cheese is named after a local ski slope in Utah, making the cheese not only personal but wholly unique to the state.

Allrecipes All-Star Top 5
The Allrecipes cooking website 2024 Golden Cart award winners are chosen by a group of brand ambassadors that are enthusiastic about home cooking! Here are the top five Allstars’ favorite items you shouldn’t leave the store without.
1) Best Condiment for Everything: Bachan Original Japanese
Barbecue Sauce Bachan Japanese Barbecue Sauce is an original family recipe that was taught to Bachan’s founder Justin Gill, by his Bachan (Grandmother) Judy. Made with authentic Japanese ingredients like, premium traditionally brewed non-GMO soy sauce, aged Japanese mirin, organic rice vinegar, organic garlic, organic green onions, and organic ginger. And never contains zero flavoring additives or preservatives, just pure, delicious barbecue sauce.

2) Best Golden Cart Wild Card: Duke’s Mayonnaise
When it comes to delectable condiments, Duke’s is in a league of its own. Around 1917, Eugenia Duke began making sandwiches at home with her own original mayonnaise recipe and began selling them to soldiers stationed at Fort Sevier in Greenville, South Carolina. Word of mouth quickly spread, and the popularity of her sandwiches grew just as fast. Within three years, Eugenia expanded her sandwich business to local drugstores and grocers. Then shifted the focus solely to bottling Duke’s mayonnaise just three years later. Duke’s gets its signature flavor by using a higher percentage of egg yolks, a touch of paprika and a wisp of vinegar, delivering Duke’s famous twang. The extra egg yolks create a thicker, richer, and creamier mayo that has an almost custard-like texture. Enjoy Duke’s with your next sandwich, egg salad, homestyle biscuits, deviled eggs, or savory dip.
