MEET THE FOUNDERS

The couple behind this amazing southern salsa dip, Marieo Kinion, Sr. and wife, Tonya Kinion. Natives of Birmingham, Alabama and proud parents of five. Marieo’s love for culinary began at a very young age. He enjoyed helping his mother, Willie Mae Kinion, cook southern dishes. During this time he learned about herbs and spices, as well as, how to create unique combinations and flavors.

As a teenager, he took his love of cooking and decided to work in the food industry as a Line Cook at the well-known Niki’s West Restaurant of Birmingham, AL. Always creating something new in the kitchen, Marieo was destined to create a great product that can be enjoyed by many. Tarez Kitchen is by far his greatest culinary creation!

ABOUT TAREZ KITCHEN

In 2006, Marieo started making fresh, all natural salsa so outrageously good, it was demanded for all family gatherings. Thus the
Tarez Kitchen brand was born. The mix of fresh ingredients, twist of fresh fruits and heat created a beautiful and tasty dish that can be served anywhere. Kick’n Black-Eye Salsa Dip is unlike your regular soupy salsa making it less acidic and messy, but brings out the robust flavors.  It is known as the healthy party food, but without the guilt!

Tarez Kitchen’s Kick’n  Black-Eye Salsa Dip is available for weddings, sporting events, corporate events etc.
