Kaizen means “continuous improvement” and it's the motivation behind everything we do. In 2017, I found myself obese and out of shape after decades of trying and failing to lose weight. I didn’t need to give up the foods I loved. I just needed better versions of them. After many iterations, Kaizen was born. A pasta & rice that doesn’t ask you to choose between enjoying your food & hitting your goals. It's all thanks to the lupini bean, one of the highest protein legumes on the planet, with half the carbs of chickpeas and 3x the protein of eggs. They're are also a complete protein with all 9 essential amino acids, and they pack 3x the fiber of oats. We use them as the base of everything we make, which is how you get pasta, rice, and mac and cheese with 6g net carbs and 20g+ protein per serving. We don't inflate our serving sizes. We produce our pasta in a dedicated gluten free facility and do not use any of the top 8 allergens. Our products are gluten-free certified by GFCO. Our products are certified Kosher by Oregon Kosher. All recent tests have confirmed “not detected” for glyphosate.
