Legit Queso Takes Its Clean Label Queso Nationwide

PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Grace Bartlett for Legit Queso

 

NAPA VALLEY, CA (2025) — Born in the Midwest and perfected in Napa Valley, Legit Queso is making it easier than ever to enjoy everyone’s favorite comfort food at home. Their chef crafted, heat and eat queso line is taking things nationwide with the launch of its online shop, delivering its clean label queso to fans across the United States. Shoppers can stock up with three or six packs of any single flavor or grab the Party Trio featuring one of each product to taste them all. This expansion marks a major milestone as Legit Queso brings the party and the queso to families and gatherings everywhere.

Made with whole ingredients and no additives, Legit Queso is redefining what store bought cheese dip can be. The lineup includes three crave worthy varieties: Queso Dip (the creamy classic), Buffalo Queso (with a bold, spicy kick), and Queso Mac (a playful twist on mac and cheese). Each one is served fresh and ready in minutes, as the tagline says, “just heat and eat.” Perfect for busy families, game day gatherings, or anyone craving a high quality, indulgent meal without the fuss.

“I grew up in Kansas City where queso was everywhere,” said chef and founder Kiersten Bartlett. “When I couldn’t find a high quality queso, I figured I’d just fill the gap myself —it’s simple: real cheese, real ingredients, the way it should be made.”

Whether hosting a football watch party, celebrating a birthday, or just looking for a better weeknight comfort meal, Legit Queso delivers crowd pleasing flavor every time.

Launching now in select retailers and popping up at tasting events across Northern California, fans can stay in the cheesy loop by following @legitqueso on Instagram or signing up for newsletters at www.legitqueso.com.
