There's almost no getting around processed foods in our kids' diets, but with so many health claims including organic, non-GMO, natural, gluten-free, made with real fruit, low-sugar, lightly-sweetened, “just a tad sweet,” and “sorta sweet,” and more than 200 names for sugar, trying to find better options is a challenge for any parent.

Your Cocktail Brand Could Win $10,000 On The Next One. -- The hosts chatted about the recently held NOSH Pitch Slam 10 competition and its winner, Cocina 54, a brand that aims to create a “new generation” of better-for-you Latin American foods and currently markets a line of frozen empanadas. They also discussed BevNET's inaugural Cocktail Showdown, an early-stage brand pitch competition designed to showcase innovative, spirit-based ready-to-drink and ready-to-pour cocktails and riffed on several new products to cross their desks over the past week. 15:04: Interview: Denise Woodard, Founder/CEO, Partake Foods -- We kicked things off with Denise Woodard, the founder & CEO of Partake Foods, a brand of cookies and baking mixes that are free from eight major allergens, and are sold at Target, Whole Foods and Sprouts stores nationwide. In this clip, pulled from our episode featured on January 29, Woodard spoke about staying focused after initially being rejected by potential investors, the impact of sales data in the company's Series A round, why entrepreneurs should ask for specific versus general advice and why she views her employees as her “boss.” 24:20: Interview: Mike Fata, Founder, Manitoba Harvest -- Our next clip is pulled from an episode featured on March 16 with Mike Fata, the founder of global hemp foods producer Manitoba Harvest.

My guest today, Claire Snowdon Darling, is a specialist in menopause and hormonal imbalances, adrenal issues and chronic fatigue and emotional issues such as anxiety and the connection between them all. She is the visionary founder and senior practitioner at https://balancedwellness.co.uk/ (Balanced Wellness, )the UK's leading Alternative Health Experts, and The College of Functional Wellness, a training School offering accredited training programmes in a new and exciting approach to health. At its core it focuses on the complex interplay between hormone systems and the root cause of modern health conditions. All of this came out of her battle to find the cause of her sudden, very early menopause, endless fatigue, depression, weight gain—all of this before she turned 40! And started when she almost died in childbirth with her daughter. Claire got into energy healing before it was cool in the UK. When she was a teenager she dabbled in crystals, took one of the first Reiki classes offered, and thought about a career in osteopathy. But the world of holistic health found her once again with the trauma that followed bringing her daughter in. Many specialists tried and failed to diagnose Claire's fatigue, sleeplessness, weight gain but western medicine had nothing for her. Anyone else feel western medicine has nothing for you? She's been doing everything right—or so she thought—in the diet and exercise categories. She researched every bit of science she could find for answers.  She trained in 16 modalities and finally knew she had to create her own model for treatment which she did with her partner. They call it the Triangle of Hormonal Health. And with that they opened the wellness center. I asked Claire if I was overstating the importance of hormones in my course, The https://rebelliouswellnessover50.com/work-with-me/ (Weight Loss Express), when I say “hormones run every show.” “I wish? No, you're not” she laughed. We talked about all of the hormone pathways, organs, and disrupters. And all of the ways we get out of whack. The key players? Food, Movement, Stress, Sleep. Did you know that “But if we're stressed, we actually have a hormone response that will, for example, shorten and tighten one leg, which is why a lot of us have pelvic instability.” Other topics: Food sensitivities training, kinesiology,  Bioidentical hormone replacement, what kind, when, for what symptoms Histamine one more thing to deal with at peri-menopause and beyond.  #nomoreprosecco The importance of progesterone Why BHRT is not just for peri-menopause symptoms. Estrogen is cardio, brain, and bone protective and bioidentical hormones are safe. What works for dry nether regions…and what doesn't. Claire works one on one with people all over the world. https://balancedwellness.co.uk/one-to-one/ (Learn more here.)

We hope you’re hungry, ‘splainiacs (okay, wait, this one is actually really good) because today’s episode is full of beans—emotionally and topically. Did you know that expression means ‘lively; in high spirits’? Which works out great because our guest today is the founder and CEO of A Dozen Cousins, Ibraheem Basir, and his joyful energy and branding insights will put you in high spirits indeed. A Dozen Cousins is a natural (and delightful) food brand making convenient products inspired by traditional Creole, Caribbean and Latin American dishes and their first product is a line of authentic, regional beans that are cooked in nutrient-dense avocado oil. Are you getting our ‘full of beans’ reference now? Great. The brand is inspired by his childhood growing up in the culinary melting pot of Brooklyn and is named after his daughter and her 11 cousins. (We, naturally, spend several minutes discussing how fun the name is to say and how much memorability and charisma it exudes.) Prior to launching A Dozen Cousins, Ibraheem obtained his MBA from the Wharton School of Business and served as a Marketing Manager on a number of natural food brands including Larabar and Annie's Organic. We chatted with Ibraheem about his ethos of celebrating food as a source of joy and a means of forging connection, and he walked us through how he developed the A Dozen Cousins brand personality from a visual and verbal storytelling perspective. Other food for thought and belly laughs included:—His desire to bring laughter and joy back to the dinner table, and his upbringing with 9 siblings—Harnessing that ‘inside joke’ playfulness into A Dozen Cousin’s branding—How when it comes to the natural food space, health and culture and convenience do not have to be at odds —The story behind the brand name and logo and why word of mouth is so impacted by the name you choose—Branding lessons he learned during his time working in marketing for Larabar and Annie’s Organic—The social impact component central to his company’s mission—The important role that authenticity plays in using humor in your branding—His beef with banana pudding You can check A Dozen Cousins out at Instagram: @adozencousins or https://adozencousins.com/ Minute markers for your skimming pleasure (how dare you): 6:58 Spiller Qs10:03 Branding Qs

This episode was recorded when I was still living in the Bay Area! This was planned to be another podcast but things fall through. I always had this episode in the back of my mind one, because Nona Lim is just a really cool person, but also her story showcases the tenacity and perseverance of an entrepreneur. We do this outside in Marin County I would say around August 2019, wow, such a different time where you can go outside, and talk to people with a cough, which Nona Lim has in this interview. I remember it was such a beautiful day by the sea. Nona was around the area after speaking with a mutual friend so I brought my gear, planted it in the middle of the plaza, and recorded. So a disclaimer, this has some background noise. This is a short episode because we’ll be having a Podcast Showcase later in the week. Tuesday or Wednesday. This will be the After Animals podcast hosted by Ulara Nakagawa and Sharyna Krishna Prasad. I let Ulara borrow my equipment during the Cultured Meat Symposium to talk to an eccentric Japanese cell-based meat scientist. This is a short episode, so after about 20ish minutes, after the episode, I’ll give you an update on my life and an update on the future of My Food Job Rocks. Enjoy the episode. Show Notes Robyn Rutledge Why did you name your company Nona Lim?: Easy to pronounce, and gets to the point LaraBar was a last-minute name Lara Bar sells to General Mills I started in Singapore, did consulting in London, and move to the Bay Area I started a meal kit business but it wasn’t the right timing Then a detox online business How does Fencing help you with business?: The hustle and the stress honestly. You’re worried about your competition but you have to shut it all out. Competition makes you go into winning. For Business, you might not want to set high goals. Risks and comfortability: Accept the fact that it may not be successful and all you have to do is to enjoy the journey. You should want to do it, but it might fail. In 2019, there’s a lot of money (some still argue that there still is) raising money, unfortunately, has an expectation How did you start Nona Lim?: After the detox/ meal kit program, I thought of what food I enjoyed? Noodles. Whole Foods was interested so I created rice noodles and bone broth before bone broth got big I since learned to pace the innovation because some people can’t understand it If you have a  bunch of resources, then you can invest in earlier projects but without money, it might be better to catch tailwind Dave Chang Is it hard to get funding?: It’s mainly timing but it’s always hard Serial founders have it easy to get money What is the best way to grow a food company?: Depends on what you want in life. Some people want to grow it quickly, or a lifestyle business, or even serving the next generation Some categories are faster than others What’s next for Nona Lim?: We pride ourselves on being at the forefront of innovation. We tend to be the thought leaders in Asian food, especially in the fresh area Any advice in starting a food business?: Don’t. Just kidding. Think product. Multiply three to four time the funding and timing What would be your first hire?: It should complement your skillset. If you are good at technical, do a first hire in sales Contact me at Nona@nonalim.com

Melissa Hartwig Urban, the co-founder/CEO of Whole30, wants to clear up a couple misconceptions about the popular 30-day lifestyle program: it isn’t a diet, and, it isn’t for everyone. What’s indisputable, however, is that Whole30 is a cultural phenomenon that has attracted millions of followers, many of whom adhere to its paleo-centric guidelines even after they complete the program. As a result, Whole30 has grown to influence how many food and beverage brands market and formulate their products, including through its product certification program. In an interview included in this episode, Urban spoke about the origins of Whole30, why she describes it as a short-term “experiment,” and why she is staunchly opposed you against the idea of moderation. She also discussed the selective process for brands to become “Whole30 approved,” why coffee brands are not a part of the program and why most of her work time is spent direct messaging with members of the Whole30 community. She also addresses pushback about promoting processed foods, why being a parent gives her street cred with her community, and why she decided to open up about past challenges in order to have a more authentic connection with Whole30 followers. Show notes:  2:42: Interview: Melissa Hartwig Urban, Co-Founder/CEO, Whole30 -- In a call with Taste Radio editor Ray Latif, Urban discussed the genesis and mission of Whole30, the program’s dietary guidelines, and why it is “not meant to be sustainable.” She also explained why she rejects 9 out of 10 brands that apply to become “Whole30 approved,” why she doesn’t always abide by Whole30’s rules and why she doesn’t respond to criticism about the program. Later, she discussed Whole30’s partnership with meal delivery companies, the importance of accessibility to the program and how she’s learned that “you can’t let perfect be the enemy of good.” She also spoke about her investment philosophy, whether being a parent has changed her outlook on Whole30 and the ways in which the program will evolve and grow over the next decade.  Brands in this episode: Justin’s, Applegate, Organicville, nutpods, Waterloo, Epic Provisions, Serenity Kids, SeaSnax, RXBAR, LARABAR, Tin Star Foods, Mesa De Vida, New Primal, Primal Kitchen

Lara Merriken founder of Larabar joins us to share how she stays fueled with real food while on the go, the importance of plant proteins and real food goodness.

Beryl Stafford was at a crossroads. The founder of Bobo’s, an innovative snack brand known for its oat-based bars, Stafford launched the Boulder-based company in 2003 and gradually built it into a successful business. By 2015, Bobo’s was generating $8 million in sales and attracting interest from several private equity firms and strategic investors. Stafford realized it was time to bring in new funding and an experienced CEO to run the day-to-day operations, but she wasn’t comfortable with ceding control of her company and concerned about trusting an outsider with the future of her brand. Enter T.J. McIntyre. A longtime veteran of the food industry, McIntyre and Stafford had become friends through the Boulder food scene and shared a similar perspective about the mission and potential for Bobo’s. Following McIntyre’s appointment as CEO in January 2016, the company embarked upon an aggressive growth strategy. Supported by $16 million in new funding, Bobo’s sales grew by 70% in 2017, 45% in 2018 and are expected to climb by 40% this year.  In an interview included in this episode, Stafford and McIntyre spoke about their work dynamic, how they assigned responsibilities and guidelines for their respective roles, and why “the one thing that really serves as the foundational element of who we are is the actual bar.” Show notes: 1:33: Good Breakfast, GoodBelly -- BevNET staff writer Brad Avery joined regular hosts Ray Latif and John Craven for a free-wheeling discussion about Instagram, probiotic cereal, CBD waters and meal-replacement drinks. 9:40: Interview: Beryl Stafford, Founder; TJ McIntyre, CEO, Bobo's -- In an interview recorded by phone, Stafford and McIntyre spoke with Taste Radio editor Ray Latif about the genesis of Bobo’s and how their friendship prior to becoming business partners was key to their successful relationship as founder and CEO. They also discussed the decision to bring on McIntyre as CEO in 2016 and why he was hired prior to raising outside investment, the transition in day-to-day leadership and how Stafford became comfortable with giving up control, and why a carefully planned business strategy is key to addressing disagreements.

Lara Merriken is a dreammaker. I have so much love and respect for this woman. I knew she was special from the minute I met her at VeloSwap in 2003, slinging energy bites in plastic baggies. I had a feeling she would change the world, I just didn’t realize how much she would change it and how quickly. Lara is the founder of Larabar. If you aren’t familiar with Larabar, I’d be shocked, because it’s now an absolute empire. She had the idea to create healthy, nutritious energy bars when she was frustrated with her options on a hike many years ago. The goal was to use clean, simple ingredients. She started by dreaming up flavors and then mixing dried fruits and nuts in her kitchen. That was almost 20 years ago. Today Lara is a free agent of sorts, as she sold Larabar to General Mills a mere 5 years after she officially launched. Hers is a massive success story on the business front, but it’s what she’s done since that many don’t think about – how to redefine yourself after a company with your own name is no longer yours. We talk about that and so much more in today’s episode. You may not know that I have a special connection to Larabar. When I officially debuted Skirt Sports at the 2004 Ironman Wisconsin, I was sponsored by Larabar. My claim to fame is that I’m the only athlete Larabar ever sponsored! Anyway, in my special needs bag on the bike, I had 2 food items: an Oatmeal Cream Pie from the gas station $.50 rack and a Cashew Cookie Larabar. I ate them both and won the race! Proof that real food is power!  Today we talk about:  Growing up sporty Competitive volleyball: How Lara learned discipline & teamwork The 10,000 Hours Rule: It takes that long to truly master something (Malcolm Gladwell coined this concept) Why being OPEN "with intention" is important How to truly be open Overcoming the need to make other people happy All things Larabar: humble beginnings, fast growth, successful exit The next frontier: How do you redefine yourself when your namesake is no longer yours? Tennis: Renewed passion, healthy obsession & drive to succeed How motherhood has changed her outlook After the interview I pulled out a few Larabars and offered them to her. Which is funny because don’t you think she probably has her own? Anyway, I asked, "Do you still eat a lot of Larabars?" and she said, “I always test them.” She wants to know that they’re fresh and delicious and spot-on with the recipes. I love this about her. I’ve always respected Lara and really appreciated that she is such a genuine, “normal” person. The trick is when a normal person does something so extraordinary, how does she adapt and integrate her “new normal” into her life without compromising who she is? The really cool thing? This can apply to any big life change. How do you retain your core essence: the beautiful things that make you who you are when you experience change? Somehow Lara has navigated these waters with grace and self-love and is passing them down to her son as we speak. If you haven’t tried Larabars before, go do it. Her original Cashew Cookie will always be my fave. I saw that they just released a new Protein line which I’m now salivating to try. Allright then, you know what time it is. It’s time to get over to the grocery store and pick up some new Larabar Flavors! It’s also time to get out there and Run This world! Have a great workout and I’ll see you next week!

Things get a little loose in this roundtable conversation, and kind of go off the rails. So consider yourself warned. But there are a few gems in here, including our group review of the ON3P Woodsman 108; Luke Koppa’s take on the new Tecnica heat-moldable hiking shoe, the Plasma S; Kristin Sinnot’s and my conversations about two new ski boots we’re excited about, and more.TOPICS & TIMES:Review: Hard Seltzers (2:30)Salomon S/Max 120 W (6:20)K2 Mindbender 99Ti (9:45)Tecnica Plasma S Hiking Shoe (16:47)Nordica Promachine 120 (21:34)Fjallraven Keb Eco-Shell Jacket (27:39)Maui Jim North Star Sunglasses (29:10)ON3P Woodsman 108 (31:40)Smashburger’s Black Bean Burger (34:47)Larabar flavors (37:33)Dirtbag Chic (39:17) See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

It's an EXTREME You Tried Dat?? as we celebrate the 2018 X-Games. And by "celebrate" we mean "passingly acknowledge its existence." In a match up that will go down in history, the gang tastes Loud and Spicy Queso Pringles, Blueberry Muffin Larabars, and Oreo Handi-Snacks.  Topics also include locker room etiquette and turn of the century athletic competitions. Parts of this episode have slightly messed up audio.  Sorry about that!  It'll be much better starting next episode.

Lara Merriken On Why Intuition Is Your Best Investment in Business I included this call as part of the WISH Revival because Lara. Is. SO. Neat. She was planning to go into medicine, originally, but during a hike with some friends, she had the idea for how to make a natural and healthy "candy bar." She borrowed a food processor from a friend (she didn't even have one at the time) and began the foot work for the HUGE success we all know as "Larabars." In order to make it all happen, once Lara had decided what she was going to do, she got herself a job in a health food store and began to do the foot work necessary to understand what she would need to do to make it happen. This is an old interview, and I apologize for the sound quality, BUT it's worth it! :-)   About Lara Merriken Denver-native, Lara Merriken had an idea to make a convenient, whole food bar that tasted delicious. As a former junk-food nut, she desired something that was indulgent but wholesome. After scouring the aisles of grocery stores and noting popular flavors of ice cream and cookies, she delved into her own product development. With friends and family serving as focus groups, she tinkered with recipes. The next step was to launch a company that would initially be five delicious Larabar flavors: Cherry Pie, Apple Pie, Cashew Cookie, Banana Cookie, and Chocolate Coconut Chew. She also assembled a sophisticated manufacturing arm... what amounted to be a Cuisinart and a rolling pin. Today, millions of Larabar bars are sold each year. Lara lives in Denver with her husband and son. You can learn more about Lara and her mission, here.

This week's guests really tested my nerves. We had an award winning author who's been featured on NPR and interviewed by Terry Gross, the site director for the actual Cascadian Farm, and General Mills' President of North American Retail. Also, we're continuing to giveaway Meatcast tee's! Maryn Mckenna is an award winning author and journalist. Her book Big Chicken was named a Best Science Book of 2017 by Amazon, an Essential Science Read by Wired, and a Best Food Book by Civil Eats. Her and I dig into… Why are antibiotics being used in animals if they're not sick? The connection between human antibiotic resistance and chicken farms How American hospitals, schools, and consumers drove the world's largest chicken producers to make sweeping changes in their practices Its only our 2nd epsiode of 2018, but I'm confdient this'll be among our top episodes of the year and it's among my favorite interviews so far! For this week's INSIDE EPIC -- we've got a double feature! First up is Ashley Minnerath, who is the on-site director the Cascadian Farm home farm. The fact that there's an actual organic Cascadian Farm, being run by farmers, is a surprise even to General Mills employees. I was excited to have Ashley come on and explain what it's like to run an organic farm that's owned by a big food company. For the second part of this week's INSIDE EPIC, we've got Jon Nudi, the president of General Mills' North American Retail. That's a group that includes all of General Mills' brands, everything from Cheerios and Larabar, to Annie's and EPIC. During his recent trip to EPIC HQ, I sat down with him and fulfilled his lifelong dream of ranking his meats. Listen all the way to the end and uncover this week's special code to win a Meatcast tee!

Kelly Hogan is the Clinical Nutrition and Wellness Manager at the Dubin Breast Center at Mountain Sinai in New York City. It’s a long title—but it basically means she’s a super smart registered dietitian who wants to help people establish non-diet lifestyles. On this episode, she talks about what that means and how that idea helped her figure out her own food philosophy. Kelly also talks about how she became an R.D.—including how she made a major career change and went back to school while working full-time—and she shares a day in the life of her own diet. We play a game [I made up] called Wellness World Word Association, where Kelly offers up her take on everything from #cleaneats, cheat days, and the new documentary What the Health to Goop and apple cider vinegar, and Kelly breaks down the difference between an R.D., a nutritionist, and a health coach—plus what you should understand about each. Kelly is a also many-time marathoner, so we talk about where she’s at with running right now, how her relationship with running has evolved over time, and how adopting a puppy—Peanut!—changed the game.

Ever had a LÄRABAR? They are all-natural energy bars sold in thousands of stores around the country. Ever wondered who started Larabar or how it became the company it is today? The founder of LÄRABAR, Lara Merriken, joins Mike for an exclusive interview on how she started the business in her kitchen and eventually got acquired by General Mills in 2008.

We start the year out right by vowing to eat healthy and get our acts together. It gets off to a rocky start when we eat a couple of energy bars very close to bedtime. Is it possible for us to get as healthy as we want in one episode? No. Also, we changed up how we number the episodes for ease of use, and not because episodes 10- 18a were destroyed in a terrible sugar fire.  Definitely not that.... Read More Read More

This episode's interview is with Renegade Triathlon Psychology coach Stephen Ladd (pictured right), who recently wrote How To Train Your Brain for Life, Workout & Sports Success and has taken a somewhat unorthodox path to becoming one of most sought after gurus in the world when it comes to training your brain for peak performance. His formal education in the States included undergraduate studies in psychology, religion, and philosophy, and Graduate studies in Comparative Religions. He then ventured outside of the US to experience the cultures and mind practices of Southeast Asia and Japan. The methods that I teach in my Renegade Triathlon Psychology program go way above and beyond what you'll learn in this podcast. This program is the only product of its kind on the market today, utilizing the best alternative sports psychology technologies to empower you to take control of your mental training and perform consistently at the peak of your genetics and skill levels.

Do you know much about these 2 products? Are they safe? Tony asks: I've a query about snacks; You advocate Larabars, which I like, however I've spotted Nature Valley Roasted Nut Crunch Gluten Free bars which are substantially lower in sugar when compared with the Larabar; 6g vs 19g. Obviously the sugary ingredients in Larabars are mainly dates and sugar is listed on the Nature Valley product, so which in your opinion is a better bet to grab in the convenience store for a quick energy pick me up? Alan asks: I just listened to your pod the other day talking about smoke points of oils and had a practical question. I use olive oil or coconut oil to fry up eggs every morning. i have no idea how hot the oil gets or how i would find out. should i be concerned or cook at a mid range temp on my stove instead of higher? any general suggestions or guidelines? Matthew asks: I just listened to the Podcast about electrolytes/sports drinks/water. The conclusions about electrolytes are amazing,though that doesn't change the fact about sugars and nutrition during exercise. Yes electrolytes aren't needed in sports drinks, but does that mean that sport drink formulas have to be re-vamped? Do the electrolytes do anything for the absorption/breakdown of say the malodextrin in Heed or simple sugars of Gatorade? durianrider asks: besides obese fad diet followers that believe you can be in great shape as an athlete on 400-600calories of carbs a day, do you know any REAL athletes that ONLY eat 400-600cals of carbs per day? Are you trying to tell us that you can restore glycogen on 400-600cals of carbs a day and eat lots of fat and protein AND recover in 24hours? lol! You need to playback the Doug Graham interview and learn some basic human physiology. Ed asks: love to do triathlon, but I'm afraid of swimming in the ocean or lake. I swim an 1hour, twice a week in a pool that is 12ft deep, can you help me, or give me some idea's of what to do, to overcome my fear. Cody asks: Every time I run, (mainly to stay in shape and train for basketball) I experience shin pain. Im not quite positive it is shin splints though, it starts almost instantly when I start my run, and never really gets worse, its a mild pain but enough to get me to stop running way sooner then I should be stopping. But the weird thing is when I play football and basketball or any other activity that involves me running, I dont get this pain which is what makes me question rather or not its is shinsplints. So to sum it all up when I run its unavoidable (for the past year and a half) but anything else it never happens. Chris asks: Hi Ben, in the past, you've recommended avoiding all sugars and starches for those active people looking to finally achieve that 6-pack, and who are already fairly lean. My question is about what to eat while avoiding sugars and starches. But what would the diet of an active person look like without sugar and starches, and how long would that person need to do that? My other concern is energy levels and motivation to workout, motivation suffering the most when I feel out of energy. Will trying to look good affect my ability to train my body?  I also mentioned I experimented with severe carb restriction a few times (veggies only carb source), and always experience equalibrium loss within a few days until I started eating carbs again. What's the deal with that?
