Hosted by Abena Anim-SomuahProduced by Kerry Diamond and Catherine BakerEdited by Jenna SadhuRecorded at CityVox Studios in NYCThis week we look into the future with Anicia Anya, founder of Kid’s Table, a New York-based subscription meal service that’s disrupting the typical approach to what American kids will eat. Anicia has big plans for it; she’s expanding into consumer-packaged goods with the aim of being “in every freezer, and in every lunchbox,” maybe even in school cafeterias. Anicia talks with host Abena Anim-Somuah about how growing up eating traditional Nigerian dishes like jollof rice and egg stew ignited her passion for food, and the career path that led her from a tech job to culinary school to becoming a private chef and nanny—and how a coffee date with Sophia Roe gave her the confidence boost she needed. Plus, hear Anicia’s Future Flash Five predictions, and her voicemail to her future self.Thank you to Kerrygold and Walmart for supporting our show.
