About Me:

Born and raised in France, vegetarian, former banker, now food entrepreneur launching the first ever vegan, jelled 90% fruit-based snack (the vegan, nutritious version of Jell-O). This is a future hit that will sell everywhere from supermarkets to deli to vending machines. I make it finally possible to access beautifully packaged cool good food in the most common places, not only in expensive gourmet outlets.

I like trying new food. Lately, I discovered and was privileged to taste fresh cut mangosteen. It's a little bit like lychee, all in all very good.
Probably my most amazing food experience was in 2007 in Colombia. While visiting a cacao plantation, I was given the opportunity to taste the white pulp inside the cacao pod (see photo). It's the white stuff surrounding the cacao beans. I can hardly describe how great it was: it tastes as sweet and good as mango. The texture is uncommon, I can't describe it well. It seems fibery and dry when you touch it yet it's like a juicy puree melting in your mouth! I just can't believe no one tries to make something out of it. Once the pod is open, the beans -still covered with the white pulp- are let dry in the sun. So the pulp melts. Maybe it contributes to the aroma of the cacao. The Colombian guys could not answer that tricky question...
