Paul is semi-correct. Zotes is no longer selling sunflower seeds, but Interstate Bait is. It's not a re-branded Zotes. IB8 was started by the former president of Zotes who wanted to keep the flavors flowing. The corn nuts are amazing and the bloody mary is worth drinking straight from the bottle.

Quote from Interstate Bait Facebook page:

"The following flavors will be hitting IB8 in April. Dill Pickle & Wuffalo Bing. If the road is long, the flavor should be, too."

Zotes is alive and well... sort of.

Looks like Zotes has gone through some "rebranding". Take a look at InterstateBait:

Zotes is alive and well. I can get you any seeds you may be interested in. I work directly with the owner and am over the sales for custom packaging. Please let me know what you want and I would be happy to get it to you. :)

Their website was jacked up when I posted this. I sent an email to them while I was writing to see if they could give me some insight about their awesome products. They never responded. I have a terrible feeling in the pit of my stomach that Zotes is no more. I asked our intern to look for Zotes in stores on a recent trip to Utah, but he forgot cause he is worthless. He will not be receiving college credit.

The only cause for optimism is that once before their store dropped down to just a few items, and a few weeks or months later, everything was back. Maybe they're just reorganizing?

I remember from their bio page that the founders previously started another company, I believe beef jerky. A truly resourceful, inquisitive person (you) would probably try to get in touch with someone there and demand some fucking answers! And then report back here.

Jeremiah,
Are these guys out of business?? Phone is disconected and the order page is gone? Wondering if you heard anything since you posted this?
Thanks,
Chris
