22Carrots chats with recipe developer, vegan and gluten-free content creator and cookbook author Remy Morimoto Park.
What’s your favorite food-inspired product? The Roma Heirloom Tomato Candle from Flamingo Estate.
What food event are you most excited about right now? Natural Products Expo in Anaheim, California. I get to try new samples and connect with brands that I work with at this event.
What’s something people don’t talk enough about when it comes to food? Respecting people’s food choices. Food is deeply personal and individual, and somebody’s food choice depends on so much more than just preferences. It can be affected by factors like health, conditioning, and culture. I think that respect for other people’s food and food choices is really important.
Check out Park’s debut book SESAME, SOY, SPICE: 90 Asian-ish Vegan and Gluten-free Recipes to Reconnect, Root, and Restore (US$35).
