Susan Benton 30AEATS

As a culinary enthusiast and entrepreneur living along Hwy 30A on the Gulf Coast, 30AEats.com, founded by Susan Benton, was born during the 2011 BP oil spill crisis in the Gulf of Mexico. Many like herself worried about the health of our Gulf, it’s inhabitants, our own safety, seafood and its sustainability. As a mother, food and travel writer, and mixed media artist who is passionate about my community, Susan decided to create a website to share with readers the people behind our food, where good food comes from, and where it could be found. Her goal is to help others discover the flavors unique to our region, so that they in turn will support the people that feed us, invest in it and themselves, and buy local products.
