Chesapeake Bay Snacks is a Baltimore-based food manufacturer. Founded in 2020 with its acquisition of the Koldkiss brand, Chesapeake Bay Snacks now owns and manufactures the Koldkiss, Popped! Republic, and Joseph’s Sugar Free Syrup brands.

CBS acquired the Joseph’s Sugar Free Syrup brand in 2022. Joseph’s is a consumer packaged good available for sale at Wegmans, through several on-line marketplaces, and at several Caribbean grocery chains.
