Guest:

Shane Lee – Founder of Dharma Food Group | Food Systems Innovator | MAP Packaging Expert


From sweeping peanut shells at LongHorn Steakhouse to managing multimillion-dollar senior meal operations, Shane Lee’s journey into food was anything but planned. In this episode, we dive deep into the industrial side of food—how modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) changes shelf life, how Shane builds medically tailored meals at scale, and why the future of food might look a lot more like the past. We talk regenerative agriculture, packaging tech, food equity, and how to feed people better—with less junk and more intention.
