Baba's Food Company

Meet Modern Middle Eastern!

Founded in 2018 by Palestinian American siblings Rana Kamal and Khalid Ansari, Baba’s is an award-winning purveyor of modern Middle Eastern flavors including hummus and pita puffs. Paying homage to their own family experience, the food brand is a love letter to the siblings’ own baba, or father, who immigrated to the Twin Cities from Jerusalem and opened one of Minnesota’s first-ever Middle Eastern restaurants. The sibling duo launched Baba’s brand to bring the traditional Arab flavors they grew up with to grocery store shelves. Following the acclaim of their OG hummus, Creamy Dreamy Traditional, they’ve since released fun modern flavors such as Sriracha, truffle, dill and za’atar — all found in retailers such as Target, Whole Foods, Fresh Thyme, Costco and Hy-Vee.
