The Story

​

Throughout the years, Samera has continuously challenged herself by experimenting with her daily meals. Whether it was a weekly meal challenge, a healthier food choice, or skipping a day of meat, Samera was always in search of ways to create a healthier lifestyle through food. It wasn't until an unforeseen medical condition surfaced that made her take a more intentional approach to the foods she consumed. In 2020, Samera dipped into the vegan lifestyle, experimenting with food and supplement combinations to rid herself of the medication she had been prescribed 7 months prior. After experiencing positive results, she could finally be free of medication. Six months later while participating in her annual church fast, Samera realized it was time to make the leap into full-time veganism and comiited to one year of this food journey. She believes her experience was God's way of telling her to fight her physical battles with food and to make it her mission to inform others along the way.

​

Through a former partnership Samera created Wood B Betta Seasonings and Sauces ™. This accidental creation happened when Samera realized she was out of Taco Seasoning and nonchalently said, "I'll make some." She proceeded to her pantry to gather the ingredients to create the taco seasoning; and a Vegan Seasoning and Sauce line was birth from this moment.

Samera is from the creole-cooking southern state of Louisian where there tends to not be a lot of vegan friendly restaurants. So this blog was created as a platform to help others who may be struggling to maintain or convert to the plant-based lifestyle. Samera's goal is to spread awareness of the plant-based lifestyle (even just incorpating a few meals a week) and help other understand that a plant based can be healthy and savory! Especially with the right seasonings.

​

Wood B Betta Seasonings and Sauces ™ was created because Samera saw a lack in healthy seasonings on the market. In addition, Samera noticed that what people really miss is the flavor of a meat in a veggie. Most seasonings don't provide the "flavor" of meat yet enhances the meat flavor. As someone who comiited to the lifestyle for a year, Samera's goal was to create seasonings that provide the taste of a "meat" in a mushroom or veggie of choice. 

​

Currently, Samera engages in a balanced healthy eating lifestyle with plently of vegan, vegetarian and plant-based options.
