ABOUT MITSOH
Mitsoh (pronounced “meat-so”) which means “to eat” in Cree, is an Indigenous-owned brand dedicated to restoring, preserving, and sharing traditional Indigenous foods. We specialize in dry meat, pemmican strips, and traditional bannock, all made using real ingredients and time-honoured methods.
Mitsoh was founded in 2018 by Ian Gladue, inspired by his mother’s long-standing tradition of making dry meat and pemmican. These recipes and techniques have been passed down through generations, and Ian’s mission is to share these authentic Indigenous foods with the world. Add that we first started with a food truck in 2013 called Native Delights selling bannock. We now are expanding to offer that fresh to consumers at Mitsoh.
Mitsoh is built on a foundation of tradition, culture, and community. Our food is more than just food—it’s a connection to Indigenous history and resilience, made accessible for everyone to enjoy.
Yes! Our products are inspired by generations of tradition, using ingredients and methods that reflect the cultural heritage of Indigenous communities.
DRY MEAT AND PEMMICAN
Traditionally crafted by Indigenous peoples, it combines dried meat with fat and berries for a naturally nutritious and long-lasting snack. At Mitsoh, we stay true to this tradition, using only real, wholesome ingredients to make pemmican a pure and flavorful way to enjoy ancestral nutrition.
PÂNSÂWÂN is our traditional dry meat. It's a simple, ancient food made with only two ingredients: bison & smoke. Using time-honored Indigenous methods, we dry and smoke the meat to create a pure, protein-rich snack that’s flavorful, nutrient-dense, and rooted in tradition.
Before Beef Jerky, there was Dry Meat and Pemmican. Unlike beef jerky, our dry meat is made exclusively from bison and smoked traditionally—without preservatives, soy, or artificial ingredients. It’s the OG jerky, rooted in Indigenous culture.
We are the original superfood because Indigenous people have been fuelling themselves with pemmican and dry meat for thousands of years. These foods were essential for sustaining communities through harsh winters and long hunts, providing energy and nutrition in the most demanding environments.
Our dry meat contains only bison and smoke. Our pemmican strips include bison, berries, salt, pepper, maple syrup, and smoke—staying true to traditional Indigenous recipes.

BANNOCK
Bannock is a traditional Indigenous bread, born of resilience and resourcefulness. Originally made from flour, water, and fat, it became a staple food during times of scarcity. At Mitsoh, we honor this time-honored recipe, offering it as a delicious, versatile bread that brings people together—whether served with jam, stew, or as part of a shared meal.
Bannock is more than food—it’s history, resilience, and culture on a plate. Native Delights honours this legacy by making bannock accessible for all, keeping traditions alive with every bite.
