FOR THE FOODIE

NOJO KICKS

Street Eatzz,
born from
the streets of
Detroit, pro-
duces sauces
and spices that
inspire, such as
its 313 Foodie
Sauce. First
taste the savory flavor of the pep-
pers without the heat, then the mild
sweetness of the Michigan dried-tart
cherries and fresh carrots. Then,
when you least expect it, the con-
trolled heat of the habaneros kicks
in, giving you a nice burn that quickly
dissipates, leaving those wonderful
flavors you first tasted.

Check out these gifts from Nojo
Kicks, Detroit's newest destina-
tion for sneakerheads at 1220
Library St. Not only can you find
rare collectible kicks there, you'll
also find jeans, apparel and hats.
