Processed is NOT Progress

Interview with Thinkruptor Magazine:

What inspired you to start GRIT?

I was raised on Rotel – most meals began in a box. It wasn’t until I lived abroad with the US Peace Corps that I realized processed is not progress. Without an alternative, I ate unprocessed and cooked from scratch, which completely changed the way my body functioned and felt. Grocery shopping outside the US looks very different—neighborhood bakers and butchers across the street from fruit stands and flower shops; small store formats where you are greeted by name and get to know your neighbors. Processed goods are rare, because most countries lack the centralization and focus on shelf-stability that has defined the US food industry. I was inspired by what I experienced during my time abroad and want to provide Americans with the same opportunity.
