I want to build a startup around cultural food — looking for people who want to build it with me 🌍
Hey everyone! 👋
I’ve been thinking about starting a startup based around culture and food, and I’m looking for people who might be interested in building the idea together.
The idea is pretty simple:
Every culture has a story, and food is one of the best ways to tell that story.
For example, I’m from Madhesh, and if I had to choose one food that represents my culture, I’d choose Thekua. It’s strongly associated with Chhath, and for many people it represents not just a sweet/snack, but the festival, traditions, family, and culture around it.
I want to create something where we can do this for different cultures — finding foods that genuinely represent their traditions, festivals, history and identity, and bringing those foods/stories to a wider audience.
It could eventually become a food brand, platform, marketplace, or something completely different. I'm still figuring that part out
If you're interested, comment your culture/country/region and one food that represents it to you. I'd love to see how many different stories we can collect. ❤️
And if you're genuinely interested in helping build this from the ground up, feel free to DM me. ☺️
