John Macy

Macy opened a tiny store front in Manhattan's East Village in June 1985 to exploit an appetizer recipe he developed ten years earlier for his small catering business. Macy's twice-baked, hand-twisted Cheddar CheeseSticks were an instant hit in local specialty stores. Thirty years later, John Wm. Macy's CheeseSticks produces a nationally recognized line of premium baked cheese snacks.
