What happened after Best Thing I Ever Ate?

The Best Thing I Ever Ate's 'As Good as Mom's' episode featured Salty Tart, the pastry stall chef Michelle Gayer ran inside Minneapolis's Midtown Global Market, spotlighting scratch-made desserts and baked goods sold from the historic food hall. Midtown Global Market itself occupies part of the former Sears, Roebuck mail-order warehouse in the Midtown neighborhood, redeveloped into commercial and residential space beginning in 2005, according to Wikipedia's Midtown Exchange entry. A check of the bakery's own domain, saltytart.com, on 2026-09-08 found it hosting unrelated recipe articles with no reference to the Midtown Global Market stall or Michelle Gayer, indicating the original site is no longer maintained under the bakery's ownership. No additional dated source could be reached within this session to confirm whether the physical stall is still operating.
