What does it take to build a thriving food brand that refuses to compromise on values? Karen and Patrick O'Flaherty, founders of Pip Organic, reveal the remarkable journey that transformed their humble market stall selling fresh juices into one of the UK's most trusted organic food and drink brands.The husband-and-wife team share how their backgrounds in marketing and finance, combined with Patrick's family history in organic farming, created the perfect foundation for their business. Their adventure began at Borough Market in London, where queues quickly formed for their fresh organic juices. When customers started bringing bottles to fill for home consumption, they recognized a retail opportunity that would define their future.The conversation takes a fascinating turn as they discuss a pivotal moment in their business journey – purchasing a bottling line at auction without fully consulting each other, a decision that nearly caused "a divorce in the car" but ultimately proved transformative for their production capabilities. This candid glimpse into their partnership reveals how entrepreneurial impulses sometimes clash with practical considerations.Perhaps most compelling is how parenthood reshaped their business direction. When Karen and Patrick couldn't find clean-label products for their own children, they identified a crucial market gap: while the baby food category was predominantly organic, options disappeared once children outgrew the toddler stage. This insight led to their mission of creating products that pass a simple but powerful test: "Would we give this to our kids with a smile?"Their commitment to quality comes with constraints – developing products takes longer, costs more, and sometimes means saying no to certain categories. Yet this unwavering approach has built extraordinary consumer trust. As they've scaled to over 10,000 distribution points across the UK without external investment, the O'Flahertys prove that patience in business can yield remarkable results.What lessons might your business gain from their "you only get out what you put in" philosophy? Listen now to discover how authentic values and consumer-first thinking can create sustainable competitive advantage in even the most challenging markets.Support the show

Send us a textLe Petit Lexique - French food terms explained - ApéroIn this first episode of Le Petit Lexique: French Food Terms Explained, we dive into one of France's most beloved daily rituals: l'apéro. Short for apéritif, apéro is so much more than a pre-dinner drink — it's a cherished social custom that marks the transition from day to evening, work to leisure, and solitude to connection. Whether shared with family on a quiet terrace or with friends in a bustling Parisian bar, apéro captures the very essence of French conviviality.We explore the history of apéro, tracing its origins from ancient civilizations to modern-day café culture. From medicinal herbal wines in the Middle Ages to Joseph Dubonnet's quinine-based creation in the 19th century, the evolution of the apéritif tells us much about the French relationship with food, drink, and health. Today, apéro is both timeless and ever-evolving, with traditions varying across regions and generations.Of course, no apéro is complete without the drinks and snacks that make it so deliciously French. We take a look at the classic and regional beverages — from Pastis and Kir to Pineau des Charentes and Suze — as well as the essential nibbles that accompany them. Whether it's a simple bowl of olives and nuts or an elaborate spread of charcuterie, cheese, and savory pastries, apéro is all about pleasure without pretense.And if you've ever heard of a dîner-apéro, we've got that covered too! Find out how the French have turned this beloved ritual into a casual, satisfying alternative to a sit-down dinner. So pour yourself a glass, grab a few tasty bites, and join us as we celebrate the art of apéro — only on Fabulously Delicious: The French Food Podcast.

Dominic Rice, co-founder and CEO of CANS, is on a mission to build a new category of non-sweet, no-sugar, no-sweetener soft drinks. After 16 years at Red Bull, Dom is applying his beverage industry expertise to create a genuinely healthy alternative that doesn't compromise on taste.The idea came over a steak dinner in Prague, where three friends shared the frustration of living sugar- and sweetener-free and finding their only drink options were water, tea, or coffee.CANS is built on radical simplicity: Alpine spring water, real fruit, and bubbles — simplicity that took 40–50 test rounds to perfect without any sugar or sweeteners.They are carving out a “third category” in soft drinks, showing that non-sweet drinks can be satisfying, refreshing, and cool to hold.Growth is built patiently, can by can: the first six months focused on laying foundations — distribution, awareness, and trial — before sales reached 500,000 cans in year one.Sampling drives both trial and insight, letting people taste without risk and giving the team direct feedback on reactions and habits.Dom applies the best of his 16 years at Red Bull, from sales and distribution playbooks to in-store execution, while unlearning corporate habits that slow a startup — prioritising speed and subtraction over complexity and addition.The UK launch shows how ready the market is, with both retailers and consumers actively rethinking soft drink options for health and enjoyment.Sleep underpins his productivity and resilience, supported by morning gym sessions, weekend nature breaks, kickboxing, and time with his wife and friends.Self-doubt is met with progress over perfection, leaning on his team and personal relationships to stay grounded as the business scales.Their approach to change is human, not preachy: they focus on making a drink people genuinely enjoy and are proud to hold, letting habits shift naturally.Support the show

Be honest... do you pick your holiday destination based on the food you can eat there? You're in good company – that's just what Richard E. Grant does!Welcome to The Happy Place Guide To Holidays! In this chat – brought to you by British Airways Holidays – Fearne and Richard share their thoughts on how to take your holiday food and drink more seriously, including asking mates (Nigella Lawson, if you're Richard!) for recommendations, looking for restaurants with small menus, and testing ingredient quality via a Caesar salad starter.They also get into a heated debate about whether perusing the aisles of a foreign supermarket is the best way, or the worst way, to spend your holiday! And Richard offers to pack Fearne's suitcase for a very specific reason...Plus, Richard explores why grieving can make us more likely to notice the little joys in life, as well as wondering if we all need praise and accolades to some extent.British Airways Holidays are ATOL protected, offer a 24hr holiday helpline, and allow you to book with a low deposit. All holidays include a generous baggage allowance per person. Go to Ba.com/holidays to find out more. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
