When we first produced our coconut water samples in a lab, we got 6 months shelf life. Then we did the same thing in our manufacturing plant, our shelf life was 3 weeks. Lesson: scaling from lab to manufacturing is hard AF..

, told me he can’t have any fresh, non pasteurized food including ours. He is allergic to all fresh food all his life, he is pissed off he can only eat crappy, added sugary foods 😗 what a weird allergy!
You email someone and they never respond to repeated emails, and one day you get an out of office message with an alternative contact. And you give a shot with the alternative contact, and they respond right away! Never give up!

Prince Harry’s “Spare” was ghostwritten by J.R. Moehringer, who is the world’s best-paid ghostwriter.
He reportedly got paid $1m for “Spare” and also ghost-wrote two other bangers: Andre Agassi’s “Open” and Phil Knight’s “Show Dog”.
Witnessed the craziest NYC event today. I pulled into a street parking and the app said I can’t park here. This guy semi parked in front of me got out of his car looked around picked up a parking ticket from his car door pocket placed it on the windshield and walked away!

In India there are 100s of languages, most states have their own languages, especially southern states. The place I grew up is Kerala, language is Malayalam and in it people say ‘Ngaghal Premathilane’ means we are in love. Premam - Love 💕

Which section people spend most their time in a supermarket? Produce? Dairy, meat? That could help CPG brands to strategize their placement as well I guess. In my experience produce seems to be one of the most trafficked sections in the store.
