The Story Behind The Name

Taelor's late PawPaw, Johnnie Rankin, suggested the name 'Purple Mockingbird' and described that when he would see a Mockingbird singing near his porch, it reminded him of Taelor's late Grandmother, Agnes Rankin. Taelor then changed 'Purple' to 'Hungry' and made the brand's colors various shades of purple as purple is also the ribbon color for pancreatic cancer, which her grandfather sadly passed from.
