Running the Asylum
- After sharing thoughts about caffeine & Vinnie’s new neighbor, they discuss getting daily steps in. (3:00)
- They were sent an infographic poster from “CardioSmart.”
(12:00)
- It describes how much sugar people ate 100 years ago vs now—from 2 lbs per year to over 150 lbs per year, which is 3 lbs. weekly!
- Anna describes other items on the poster.
- The poster is a general infographic about sugar, but it also tells approximately how much sugar you “should” have.
- The amount suggested is low, but approximately what is found in a can of soda.
- The poster is sponsored in part by Coca-Cola.
- So the underlying message appears to be, that you can lower sugar, but still have room for soda.
- It’s not unlike Barilla Pasta sponsoring a study that says pasta is good for you.
- It appears that the inmates are running the asylum.
- You can let food companies know you disapprove of their products simply by not buying them. Choose with your wallet.
The ExpoWest Experience
- They explain what it is. (29:00)
- They talk about premade cookies you can buy at grocery store bakeries. (33:00)
- Anna shares her Expo West experience while running her Eat
Happy Kitchen booth. (35:15)
- She’s been presenting to all kinds of buyers and investors who are very interested.
- There was a “beanless coffee” product she tried; as a result, Vinnie explains what “Postum” is. (41:00)
- It is a real challenge to be able to package good food and have
it be shelf-stable. (47:00)
- Even healthy options she found still had sugars.
- She had some amazing interactions overall and is looking forward to what comes of it.
