If you have been to Osaka, you would probably know who our guest is for today. After all, the company is behind the running man signage overseeing the Dotombori canal and a must-see attraction when visiting the city.  Founded 102 years ago in 1922, Glico Group is best known as a confectionery maker behind brands such as Pocky, Pretz and Pejoy. But did you know that there is a heartwarming story behind how the products came about?  Well, back in the days, the firm's founder Riichi Ezaki had a son who was unwell. To improve the health of his son, Ezaki tested and confirmed the presence of a significant amount of glycogen in a sample of oyster broth.  That was in the early 1900s so you can imagine that glycogen was a substance that was still relatively unknown. Well, Ezaki fed glycogen to his sickly son, who eventually became healthy.  And it was this desire to use glycogen in confectioneries and enhance human health that lays the foundation for Glico.  Today, the firm's portfolio has expanded beyond brands like Pocky to look at ice-cream products, baby formula, milk products, desserts, food ingredients, as well as raw materials for cosmetic and health products.  But even as the firm grows over the years, its focus on research and development and focus on health continues to be a key part of its value proposition. But how far has this emphasis on R&D and human health set the firm apart from the competition?  Speaking of which, the firm appears to be setting its sights on using more nuts for its products. For one thing, Glico Manufacturing Indonesia, which is the largest Glico plant and exporter to North America Markets, now produces Pocky Crushed Nuts for ASEAN markets. But how far is the ingredient key for Glico's future success?  On Under the Radar, The Evening Runway's finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Hideaki Nagahisa, Chief Operating Officer, Glico Asia Pacific.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Disneyland cast members are chanting "Shut It Down!" and intend to strike if their demands aren't met. Could Disneyland get shut down again soon? From KTLA 5... The unions involved are the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers Local 83, the Service Employees International Union-United Service Workers West, the Teamsters Local 495 and the United Food and Commercial Workers Local 324. “Negotiations between Disneyland Resort and Master Services Council — which represents four major unions and nearly 14,000 cast members at Disneyland Resort including: Attractions, Candy Makers, Costuming, Custodial, Main Entrance, Parking, Resort Transportation, Store Operations, Team Centers, and Anaheim Distribution Center — began in late April 2024 with continued conversations taking place throughout the last few months. The official Disneyland Park Master Services Council contract expired on June 16, with Master Services Council declining to enter into a contract extension,” Disneyland Resort officials previously told KTLA in a statement. “We respect and value our cast members and recognize the important role they play in creating happiness for our guests. With the next meeting scheduled for July 22, we remain committed to continuing discussions and to reaching an agreement with the Master Services Council that focuses on what matters most to our current cast members, helps us attract new cast, and positions Disneyland Resort for growth and the creation of more jobs.” ➡️ Tip Jar and Fan Support: http://ClownfishSupport.com ➡️ Official Merch Store: http://ShopClownfish.com ➡️ Official Website: http://ClownfishTV.com ➡️ Audio Edition: https://open.spotify.com/show/6qJc5C6OkQkaZnGCeuVOD1 Disneyland employees are considering going on strike due to low wages and poor working conditions, potentially leading to the park shutting down and impacting visitors. 00:00 Disneyland employees may go on strike due to low wages and increasing living costs, potentially leading to the park shutting down. 02:19 Four Disneyland unions may strike, potentially shutting down the park and impacting visitors. 04:03 Disneyland employees are negotiating for fair wages and policies, with the potential for a strike if a contract is not reached. 05:11 Disneyland employees filed unfair labor practice charges against Disney for intimidation and surveillance of union members, demanding a living wage. 07:10 Disneyland employees are struggling with economic hardship, with a majority reporting not earning enough to cover basic expenses, experiencing food and housing insecurity, and missing work due to lack of sick leave. 08:09 Disneyland employees are standing up for fair wages and working conditions, considering going on strike due to harassment and fear of retaliation from the corporation with a market cap of over $174 billion. 10:22 Disneyland employees are demanding fair pay and livable wages to prevent a potential shutdown. 12:07 Disneyland employees may go on strike due to poor working conditions and low pay, potentially leading to park closure and negative impact on guest experience.

For their Q1 2024, Nestlé announced a notable start with an organic sales increase of 1.4%. The company's CEO, Mark Schneider, mentioned on their earnings call that they expect moderate positive pricing for the year 2024 on a Group consolidated basis. This raise is mainly attributed to contributions from Europe and emerging markets, complemented by a price elevation of 3.4%. However, it's worthwhile to consider the marginal decrement experienced by Real Internal Growth (RIG), which fell by 2.0%.Looking at the specifics of their 2024 strategy, the company envisions an organic sales expansion proximate to 4% and some degree of growth in its trading operating profit margin. To this end, Nestlé has highlighted their PetCare and Confectionery sectors as major components of growth. Both sectors have signaled growth, and there has been satisfactory progress in the Coffee segment. Singling out their investment in Billionaire brands, which oversee more than 70% of the Group sales, Nestle acknowledges this as a key factor in gaining market share in 2024's first quarter.During their Q1 earnings call, Nestlé identified certain consumer trends. There seems to be an escalating interest in premium products, a trend particularly strong in the US market, along with a growing appetite for healthier alternatives. Evolving consumer preferences necessitate science-based solutions tailored for specific pet needs and a discernible preference for cold beverages among younger customers.Adding to this, Schneider commented on the company's position in the American market, in light of a shift towards private label brands: "And we've seen some private label, but not overly so because we have a big share in America on the lower-end brands as well. So, to a great extent, we benefited when people were trading down… And we are cognizant that with improved purchasing power here going forward, we'll see, on balance, a positive trend again for the remainder of the year."Looking to the future, the company aims to bolster its advertising and marketing strategies to reignite RIG and amplify its market footprint. Nestlé's development centerpiece for the upcoming period includes sectors such as Frozen Food, PetCare, Nestlé Health Science, and Coffee. Additionally, the company acknowledges the necessity of handling regulatory challenges related to mineral water, approaching this with reformation initiatives and constructive engagement with regulators.In conclusion, while Nestlé envisions various scopes of expansion and has a robust plan set for the coming period, it is crucial to note these predictions are based on the prevailing market scenario, which could change. Nevertheless, with their understanding of the current trends combined with strategic planning, Nestlé stands ready to meet challenges and seize potential opportunities as they continue their journey in 2024.

Tonight, we'll read excerpts from “Candy-Making Revolutionized: Confectionary from Vegetables” by Mary Elizabeth Hall, printed in 1912. Long-time listeners may recall that this episode first aired back in 2020. Confectionery is the art of making confections, which are food items that are rich in sugar and carbohydrates. It can be divided into two broad categories: bakers' confections and sugar confections. Before sugar was readily available in the ancient western world, confectionery was based on honey. Honey was used in ancient civilizations to preserve perishable and delicate fruits and flowers. The ancient Persians, followed by the Greeks, made contact with the Indian subcontinent and spread sugar agriculture from what was thought of as the native Indian "reeds that produce honey without bees". Generally, confections are low in micronutrients and protein but high in calories. Many confections are considered empty calories and ultra-processed foods. Hall wrote that her hope was that through this book “ the more vegetable candy is made, the less unhealthful confectionery there will be consumed. — read by 'V' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

Dahlia Graham – Co-Founder / CEO, Fruition Chocolate Works   Dahlia Graham is the Co-Founder and CEO of Fruition Chocolate Works, an award-winning bean to bar chocolate maker in New York's Hudson Valley that has been featured in The New York Times, The Washington Post, and Bon Appetit. With her husband Bryan Graham, she sources transparent, high-quality cocoa beans, which are then carefully crafted into dark, milk, and white chocolate bars and confections.    Dahlia holds a B.S. in Human Development with a minor in Spanish and International Studies from Binghamton University, and a Masters in Teaching from Pace University.  She is a Teach for America Alumna, and previously held the role of Director of Educational Programs at REACT to FILM in NYC. She also founded Corazón de Dahlia, a nonprofit organization that provided education and community development to impoverished, marginalized Peruvian children and families for 10 years.   Bryan Graham – Founder / Creative Director, Fruition Chocolate Works   Bryan Graham is the Founder of Fruition Chocolate Works and Confectionery. From a very young age, Bryan has been passionate about chocolate, pastry and food of all types. Bryan attributes his interest in the field of baking and pastry to his grandmother, an outstanding baker. During visits to her farm in upstate New York, Bryan learned how to pick perfectly ripe ingredients and transform them into pies, cakes, jams and jellies. At the age of 16, Bryan began an in depth study through a high school mentor program where he became an apprentice at the renowned Bear Café in Woodstock, New York. Within the first week of working beside Executive Pastry Chef Heather Haviland, Bryan confirmed his love for pastry. After showing commitment to the craft and dedication to the restaurant, Bryan was offered a permanent position as an assistant to the baker and Pastry Chef. At age 18, after graduating high school, he took over that role. Five years later, Bryan decided to continue with a formal education at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York. He completed his externship at Jacques Torres Chocolates in NYC. However, it wasn't until Bryan made a tiny batch of chocolate from bean to bar with Chef Peter Greweling that an interest in the history and science of chocolate and confectionery was sparked. Since, Bryan has educated himself on the science, technique, and craft of chocolate. In 2013, Bryan was named Top 10 Chocolatiers in North America by Dessert Professional Magazine. He and his team continue to be recognized with a multitude of awards including Good Food Awards, Academy of Chocolate Awards, and International Chocolate Awards. On this episode, Dahlia and Bryan join host Mitchell Davis and discuss Cacao's long journey from bean to bar, the temperamental nature of chocolate, and why every small business should find a bookkeeper they can trust.

This is John McGlothlen with The Gazette digital news desk and I'm here with your update for Monday, January 23rd.According to the National Weather Service, we'll have patchy fog before 8 a.m. Otherwise, partly sunny, with a high near 31. Winds from the southwest, 10 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 25 mph. Then tonight, mostly cloudy, with a low around 24. Union workers voted Sunday to ratify a four-year contract with multinational ingredients maker Ingredion, ending a strike that has stretched on for nearly six months against the company's Cedar Rapids facility. About 88 workers trickled in before 10 a.m. Sunday at Teamsters Hall to vote on whether to ratify the contract and bring an end to the strike that began Aug. 1. After over two hours of discussion, union members could be heard clapping behind closed doors and began to cast written ballots. They wrapped up just before 1 p.m. with the vote to ratify the deal. Mike Moore, the principal and president of Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union Local 100G, had said Thursday that Ingredion and the union reached the tentative deal after two days of negotiations last week. Overall, he said, reaching a deal took about 25 face-to-face sessions.One man was killed and another was injured in a fall from a scaffold last week in Dyersville, according to a news release from the city's chief of police. At 8:37 a.m. Thursday, emergency responders were dispatched for an industrial accident at Farmtek, at 1440 Field of Dreams Way in southwest Dyersville. Police found two victims who had fallen about 20 feet from a portable scaffold. One was not breathing and police began CPR. One who fell was identified as 50-year-old Bruce Bockenstedt of Manchester. He was transported to a Dyersville hospital and did not survive his injuries. The other was transported to a Dubuque hospital and later transferred to the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics. Police did not have an update on his status. The accident remains under investigation.The Gazette has online maps showing how many private schools in Iowa are in each county, and how many of those private schools include a 12th grade. Go to thegazette.com slash data to see those details. Of course, that could soon change, thanks to a proposed state-funded private school financial assistance package - that could be passed this week.–

This is Stephen Schmidt from the Gazette digital news desk and I'm here with your update for Friday, January 20.Nothing too exciting on tap weather wise for Friday. According to the National Weather Service it will be mostly cloudy with a high near 29 degrees in the Cedar Rapids area. A northwest wind of 10 to 15 mph could gust as high as 25 mph. On Friday night it will be mostly cloudy, with a low around 20 degrees.Union workers have tentatively struck a deal with Ingredion officials that may soon bring an end to its monthslong strike against the company's Cedar Rapids facility, the union president said Thursday.Mike Moore, the principal and president of Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union Local 100G, said he and his committee are reviewing the tentative agreement “with a fine-toothed comb.”“If everything pans out, we will get it to our members hopefully within the next 24 hours,” Moore said.If that is successful, Moore said he plans to send the contract to a vote on Sunday at Teamsters Hall, where 105 union members could opt to ratify the contract. That would bring an end to the strike that began Aug. 1.Alexander Jackson, in a police interview, never admitted to killing his parents and 19-year-old sister on June 15, 2021, but after hours of interrogation he did admit his college grades had plummeted and his dad expected him to get a job or move out.Cedar Rapids Police investigators believed that could have been the motive for him to fatally shoot his father Jan Jackson, 61, mother Melissa Jackson, 68, and his sister Sabrina Jackson.According to testimony, the family members died of multiple gunshot wounds. Police found them dead in separate rooms in the house.The prosecution will rest Friday after four days of testimony, and the defense will start its case. Closings may be Monday or Tuesday. There will be live coverage each day on thegazette.com.Iowa legislative leaders expect Gov. Kim Reynolds' private school assistance proposal to come to a floor vote early next week in both the House and the Senate.Reynolds, a Republican, announced the bill Jan. 10, and it has dominated the first two weeks of the legislative session. Republicans have fast-tracked it through the lawmaking process in both chambers.If the bill passes through both chambers, it will go to Reynolds' desk to be signed into law. Next week is National School Choice Week, a week of advocacy and events focused on giving parents broader options in education.Republican House Speaker Pat Grassley maintained confidence Thursday that Republicans have the votes to pass the bill this year. A far narrower private school scholarship program last year failed to gain support of several Republicans in the House, some from rural areas who were concerned about how it would affect public schools in their districts.

Low-sugar, keto-friendly snack brand HighKey announced it will be launching a sugar-free sandwich cookie featuring two crispy chocolate wafers around a layer of vanilla crème. In this episode of the Xtalks Food Podcast, Sydney talks about this new Oreo alternative that contains no sugar, two grams of net carbs, seven grams of fiber, 60 calories and is made with gluten-free, soy-free and keto-friendly ingredients. She discusses the downfall of Oreo Thins and the success of HighKey's other healthy snack products, especially via online channels. The team commends the new product for not only offering a healthier alternative to a popular snack, but also for featuring fiber and not solely empty calories. Also in this episode, Sydney talks about five food tech products that were featured at this year's Consumer Electronics Show (CES).

This is Stephen Schmidt from the Gazette digital news desk and I'm here with your update for Friday, October 28.The temperatures keep slowly ticking upward after a cold start to the week. According to the National Weather Service it will be sunny Friday in the Cedar Rapids area with a high near 61 degrees. On Friday night it will be clear, with a low of around 34 degrees. Ingredion and the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union Local 100G have agreed to meet face to face next Tuesday for the first time in more than a month.The local has been on strike at the multinational ingredients manufacturer's Cedar Rapid facility since Aug. 1.Mike Moore, the local union's principal and president, would not disclose the location of the Nov. 1 meeting but said he would attend with only his negotiating team — no other union members would be present — and Ingredion officials had agreed they would not bring security personnel.A Sept. 21 meeting with the Westchester, Ill.-based manufacturer ended when both parties were asked to leave the Hotel at Kirkwood Center after the two sides became heated over Ingredion officials bringing armed security professionals with them.The two sides have met via video conferences since then.Two 19-year-olds were arrested Wednesday on charges that they vandalized several cars, a building and street signs in Marion in July. The graffiti included “KKK,” “I am a Nazi” and swastikas, according to the Marion Police DepartmentGary Alan Jacobsen III, of Cedar Rapids, and Zane Alexander Wilcox-Thomas, of Marion, are each facing four counts of third-degree burglary of a vehicle, and one count each of third-degree burglary, first-degree criminal mischief, conspiracy to commit nonforcible felony, trafficking stolen weapons, conspiracy to commit aggravated misdemeanor and person ineligible to carry dangerous weapons.Police interviewed a third subject, identified in criminal complaints as Koda Shane Holst, and are pursuing the same charges against him, according to police.The three men entered a garage in the 1100 block of 10th Street in Marion on July 21 and stole spray paint cans, which they used to vandalize several cars, personal property and city of Marion property, causing more than $10,000 in damage, according to a criminal complaint.Marion investigators identified the three suspects after finding cell phone pictures that were taken the night of the incident and showed all three wearing the same clothing they were seen in on a home security camera system, according to the news release.The incident was investigated to determine if any of the crimes committed could be considered hate crimes, but no evidence was found to warrant the additional charges, according to police.In a question placed on the ballot by a group calling for a moratorium on wind energy and solar farms, Tama County voters will decide next month whether to increase the number of county supervisors from three to five.The Tama County Against Turbines group gathered more than 1,000 signatures earlier this year, as required by law. At least 908 signatures were required based on how many people in Tama County voted in the last presidential election.Tama County Against Turbines is a group of residents who have been speaking since April at Tama County Board of Supervisors meetings during public comments, calling for a moratorium on permitting any new industrial wind or solar projects in the county until the county has updated its ordinances governing them.If the Tama County measure passes, all five of its supervisor seats would be up for election in November 2024.

This is Stephen Schmidt from the Gazette digital news desk and I'm here with your update for Wednesday, September 21. It's going to feel completely different on Wednesday than the day before it. According to the National Weather Service, the high in the Cedar Rapids area is predicted to be 73 degrees. There will be a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms for much of the day, otherwise it will be partly sunny. On Wednesday night it will be cloudy, with a low of around 51 degrees. Representatives of Ingredion and the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union Local 100G — nohttps://www.thegazette.com/business/ingredion-cites-commitment-to-being-good-corporate-citizen-as-cedar-rapids-strike-continues/ (w in its seventh week of a strike a)gainst Ingredion's Cedar Rapids facility — were asked to leave the Hotel at Kirkwood Center Tuesday morning after the two sides became heated over Ingredion officials bringing armed security professionals with them. Mike Moore, the local's principal and president, said in a news release sent to The Gazette that “the union views this show of intimidation as a sign of disrespect and a lack of intent to bargain in good faith.” In an email to The Gazette Tuesday afternoon, Becca Hary, Ingredion corporate communications director, wrote, “We have been eager to resume negotiations in order to reach a fair agreement for the benefit of all. Unfortunately, throughout this process, Ingredion employees have received repeated threats of violence — in fact, approximately 100 have been received since Aug. 1. Hary added that Ingredion officials “look forward to resuming negotiations as soon as possible. We have proposed alternative meeting options and stand ready to continue to bargain in good faith toward a new agreement.” The union called a strike Aug. 1 over wages, overtime and health care benefits, among other issues. No further meetings between Ingredion and the union have been scheduled. It seems a utility-scale solar moratorium is in Linn County's near future. The Linn County Planning and Zoning Commission recommended the Board of Supervisors approve the moratorium. The commission voted 6-0 to recommend approval during its meeting on Monday night. The proposed moratorium, if approved, would be in effect for 12 months, or whenever the code is changed if it's sooner. A moratorium would allow current projects already approved to continue, but the county would not be accepting new applications during the time period. The main sentiment behind the moratorium appears to be that the country needs to consider if its solar power procedures and implementation are as good as they could be. “Our code language is good language. Most of the jurisdictions that have codes like ours are similar or less robust,” County Planning and Development Director Charlie Nichols said. “Nationally, it is good code. But staff recommends approval (of the moratorium) because we can make it better. My hope is we come out of this with a model not just for Iowa, but all across the nation.” “We've learned a lot and we want to take those lessons and put them in our code,” Nichols said. “We want to look at vegetation under the solar panels, we want to take a closer look at screening. We want a more standardized approach with battery-storage systems because that's not in our code and it needs to be.” More than $2.6 billion of Iowa soybeans and corn will be purchased by Taiwan, according to letters of intent signed during a ceremony at the Iowa Capitol on Tuesday. A trade delegation from Taiwan joined Gov. Kim Reynolds and Iowa agriculture secretary Mike Naig in signing the informal agreements, which state Taiwan's intent to purchase over the next three years about 100 million bushels of soybeans valued at roughly $2 billion, and 59 million bushels of corn valued at roughly $600 million. According to Randy Miller, president of the Iowa Soybean Association and a soybean farmer, more than...

FIJI Water bottles, which feature an iconic square shape and vibrant branding, are now made from 100 percent recycled plastic and are also fully recyclable. In this episode of the Xtalks Food Podcast, Sydney talks about FIJI's 100 percent recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) bottles that replaced its virgin rPET 500-milliliter and 330-milliliter bottles throughout the US. However, the water business in Fiji has brought some dissent. While the export of mineral water added more than $100 million to Fiji's economy, the company churns out bottles of water in a country where citizens don't have access to drinking water. The team wonders whether bottled water will ever become a thing of the past and commends FIJI for making the switch.Also, in this episode, Sydney talks about cell-based chocolate, which is made by growing cells in a similar way to cultured meat and seafood. To make cell-based chocolate, cells must be sampled through cocoa beans that are selected for their taste, smell, melt and performance. A part of the bean is incubated at a certain temperature in a completely dark environment. After several weeks in bioreactor tanks, the cocoa cells ferment and achieve a rich flavor, resulting in cell-cultured cocoa nibs. Several companies, including California Cultured and Fazer, have already entered the cell-based chocolate space, but they are far from commercialization. The team discuss whether they would try cell-based chocolate and whether consumer reception would be positive. Read the full articles here:Fiji Water Bottles are Now Made From 100 Percent Recycled PlasticIs Cell-Based Chocolate the Next Big Food Trend?For more food and beverage industry content, visit the Xtalks Vitals homepage.Follow Us on Social Media Twitter: @XtalksFood Instagram: @Xtalks Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Xtalks.Webinars/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/xtalks-webconferences YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/XtalksWebinars/featured

Barry Callebaut's The Future of Indulgence Report 2022 was previewed at the Group's booth during the Sweets & Snacks Expo 2022 in Chicago before publication this month. Bas Smit, Global VP of Marketing at Barry Callebaut talks us through some of its main findings.

Voyage Foods, a California-based startup that has reverse-engineered chocolate, peanut butter and coffee, recently closed a $36 million Series A investment round. In this episode of the Xtalks Food Podcast, Sydney talks about how Voyage Foods found the main molecules that make up chocolate, peanut butter and coffee, and then found those molecules in other food sources and combined them with additional ingredients to make their replacements. She discusses the problematic sourcing and production challenges associated with chocolate and coffee, as well as the millions of Americans that have peanut allergies. The team put forward some potential challenges for consumers in adopting these products, but understand why they are necessary replacements. Also, in this episode, Sydney introduces the team to Boochcraft, a hard kombucha maker that recently became a Certified Benefit Corporation (B-Corp). This label is awarded to companies that voluntarily meet high social and environmental performance standards. All the fruit scraps used to make Boochcraft are composted, producing over one million pounds of compost annually, and any unused fruit is donated to feed people who are food insecure. Boochcraft has also established a healthy and financially supportive workplace by committing to pay all employees 25 percent above the set minimum wage and offering other benefits. The team applaud the company for its environmental and social standards and discuss the niche hard kombucha market. Read the full articles here:Voyage Foods is Taking the Cocoa out of Chocolate, Peanuts out of Peanut Butter and Beans out of CoffeeBoochcraft Becomes First Hard Kombucha Brand to Earn B-Corp StatusFor more food and beverage industry content, visit the Xtalks Vitals homepage.Follow Us on Social Media Twitter: @XtalksFood Instagram: @Xtalks Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Xtalks.Webinars/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/xtalks-webconferences YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/XtalksWebinars/featured

Aaron is a veteran of both the Navy and the Army. In 2011, Aaron was blinded when an IED exploded while he was deployed in Afghanistan. Shortly after he survived the blast, Aaron contracted a bacterial meningitis that took his hearing. He found himself engulfed in darkness with no way to receive messages from others. Aaron spent months in this condition before receiving cochlear implants.  Aaron then spent time having to regain his balance and relearn the movements we all take for granted. Aaron's love for cooking led to a purpose and business by the name of EOD Fudge.  Through his love of cooking, Aaron began to rekindle the loves of marathons and mountain climbing. Aaron's story is one of triumph over challenges and finding meaning in life after trials. #veteran #EOD #blind #deaf #marathon #baking #art #creations #meaning #enduring #IED #Afghanistan #chef #Frankl #mountainclimbing #effPTSD #effTBI #courage #laughter #vetlove #bandofbrothers #military #militaryfamily #lifeafterservice #fyp #fypagewww.eodfudge.comIG https://www.instagram.com/eodconfections/ Vet with a Mic Merch House Strung Like a Horse Recording artist and creator of "Forget What They Think" music for Vet with a MicSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/VetwithaMic)
