FoodNerd: What Every Parent Needs to Know About Ultra-Processed Snacks
Episode 81
Wednesday, 29 April, 2026
Sharon Cryan is the Founder of FoodNerd, an innovative food technology company rethinking how we process and consume everyday nutrition. Sharon shares the inspiration behind FoodNerd's Mega Puffs, a first-of-its-kind cold-processed snack designed to preserve the full nutrient profile of fruits and vegetables, and explains how her early life experiences and legal background exposed major gaps in the food system. She also breaks down what "processed food" really means, the impact of ultra-processing on nutrient loss, and how her proprietary "nutrient lock" technology keeps food as close to its natural state as possible. She further explores the challenges of educating consumers in a crowded grocery landscape, the importance of early childhood nutrition in shaping lifelong eating habits, and how modern food products influence children's taste preferences. Sharon also shares her mission to create transparent, convenient solutions for parents—helping them reduce food guilt while making healthier choices for their families.
