Summary

Today's show is with Scott Gryzbek, the proud founder and CEO of Zukay Live Foods, the makers of vegetable kvass. This is ridiculously tasty stuff! After working in the food industry for a number of years for some big players in the game, Scott found it hard to sell foods he wouldn't feed to his own kids. So instead, he started Zukay to bring the health benefits of raw, fermented vegetables back into the American diet.

Today we talk about:

  • What it was like to live paleo before paleo was Paleo.
  • A behind the scenes look at why food manufacturers and the government create foods you wouldn’t feed your kids.
  • How you can make fermented foods at home.
  • And why a beer may be good for you from time to time.

 Here's the show.
