Cookies Food Products temporarily suspends production of sauce to bottle ethanol-based sanitizer.

(Wall Lake, Iowa) — Going with the flow takes on a whole new meaning in times like this COVID-19 pandemic. It also explains why ethanol-based hand sanitizer has been flowing through the bottling line instead of barbecue sauce at Cookies Food Products Inc. in Wall Lake.

“I’m a firm believer you have to pay rent for the space you occupy while you’re here on earth,” said Speed Herrig, who has grown Cookies Food Products into one of the largest regional sauce manufacturers in the country in the past 40 years. “We want to do what we can to help.”
