It's never "just another Tuesday" in the Innovatio

It's never "just another Tuesday" in the Innovation Lab 🧫

We no longer have to keep this secret: @donbugito

We no longer have to keep this secret: @donbugito was filmed at KitchenTown by a @vice documentary crew! Their Fed Up series highlights amazing people hungering for a better food system, and we couldn't be prouder (or less surprised, given her amazing work!!) that @m0nica_martinez and her insect snacks were one of three leaders showcased.

"You're eating farm fish and farm chickens? You're already eating insects - they're used as feed to pump up the protein. But these guys, they use such a small amount of resources. Less water, less food, less land, no waste, greenhouse gases are very, very minimum. Honestly, I'm in love with these guys. They're so resilient." —Monica

You know about @mezli_med, right? They're here at

You know about @mezli_med, right? They're here at KitchenTown with the best lunch ever every weekday (most of our staff end up ordering a bowl, like, most days, and we're not mad about it), and they just made Yelp's list of top San Mateo restaurants thanks to only 5-star reviews.

Did we mention there's a twist? The final steps of the magical bowl-creation-process happens in fully autonomous Mezli Boxes, which allows them to sell such high quality food at a very good price point. This team recently graduated from @ycombinator and they're about to take the world by a storm.

Besides the filling $5 bowls, you can get homemade fluffy pita, homemade honey pistachio cookies, and homemade saffron lemonade. Wow. Don't mind if we do, thanks. (Pls, @mezli_med, never leave KT.)
