Utah Valley Times

U.S. Senator Mitt Romney (R-UT) and Mrs. Romney served a selection of Utah foods at a lunch hosted for his Republican Senate colleagues in Washington. Jayson Edwards, founder and owner of Utah-based J.Dawgs, traveled from Utah to personally grill gourmet hot dogs for the event. The menu featured J.Dawgs hot dogs with their signature “Special Sauce,” Mrs. Romney’s barbecue beans, and BYU Creamery’s “Graham Canyon” ice cream.

Romney provided his colleagues with gift bags containing select products from Utah. The bags included Chad’s Bear Lake “Country Style Raspberry Jam” from Laketown, an Aggie Chocolate Factory “Go Aggie Bar” from Logan, Beehive Cheese “Squeaky Bee Curds” from Uintah, and Uncle Bob’s Butter Country’s “Original Buttermilk Syrup” from Pleasant Grove.
