Meet the Flavor Fans

To roll out the CAVA Shop and model the first line, CAVA partnered with a “who’s who” of the internet’s most beloved foodie creators who are obsessed with CAVA, each modeling their favorite piece from the collection. From @how.kev.eats repping the Feta Hoodie to @janemukbangs donning the Hot Harissa Vacation Tote, every look tells a story of flavor obsession and connection. The foodies went from CAVA car muckbangs to modeling CAVA’s merch line.

“Our passionate fans have been asking us for merch for years so they can rep CAVA and their go-to flavors in their everyday lives,” said Andy Rebhun, Chief Experience Officer at CAVA. “Now, at a moment when merch has become one of the most powerful ways for people, especially Gen Z and Millennials, to show what they’re into and be part of cultural conversations, we’re excited to give our community a new way to express their love for CAVA beyond the bowl.”
