Deep dives
Creating a Healthy Ramen Brand
The podcast episode discusses the founding of Emmy ramen, a brand focused on creating a healthier instant ramen option. The founders, Kevin Lee and K-chan, both grew up in Asian food families and noticed the higher rates of chronic health conditions like diabetes within their communities. They saw an opportunity to transform the beloved but often unhealthy instant ramen into a nutritious and guilt-free option. By replacing traditional wheat flour with plant-based proteins and incorporating fiber-forward ingredients, Emmy ramen became the world's first low-carb, high-protein, and plant-based instant ramen. The founders aim to offer a healthier alternative that still honors Asian food culture without sacrificing taste or texture.
