Ibraheem Basir is the Founder of A Dozen Cousins, a line of ready-to-eat beans using delicious recipes from Black and Latino cultures. On this episode of ITS, Ibraheem and Ali discuss the gap between food culture and the (very crowded) world of "natural products," and how A Dozen Cousins is built to bridge that gap. Ibraheem also shares how his experience working for Annie's and General Mills has shaped the way he's building his business. In March, HRN began producing all of our 35 weekly shows from our homes all around the country. It was hard work stepping away from our little recording studio, but we know that you rely on HRN to share resources and important stories from the world of food each week. It’s been a tough year for all of us, but right now HRN is asking for your help. Every dollar that listeners give to HRN provides essential support to keep our mics on. We've got some fresh new thank you gifts available, like our limited edition bandanas. Keep In The Sauce on the air: become an HRN Member today! Go to heritageradionetwork.org/donate.
