Our Story

Our Story

The Better Fat Co. began at home, during a season of paying closer attention.

While weaning her baby onto solid foods, founder Catherinah Rajakumar began making ghee herself. She tested different butters, learned from traditional methods, and shared batches with friends in pursuit of the best possible version for her family.

Raised in India and now building her life in Canada, Catherinah began to see this everyday pantry staple in a new light. What started as a personal experiment grew into a broader curiosity about why such a versatile, time-honoured cooking fat feels less familiar in everyday homes here.

Let's reimagine a timeless staple for modern kitchens.

The Better Fat Co. Badge

As someone who cares deeply about the way food makes us feel, I've always been fascinated by how people eat and the choices behind their habits. Inspired by my heritage, design background, and love of good food, I started The Better Fat Co. to make everyday food taste better.
