Celebrity Chef Jose Andrés restaurants start using Loliware’s sustainable Seaweed Straws
Loliware, the pioneering seaweed-resin company, has announced a significant partnership with Celebrity Chef Jose Andrés’ “José Andrés Group“ (JAG), the internationally renowned restaurateur’s network of establishments. This collaboration aims to enhance JAG’s purpose-driven practices by introducing Loliware’s innovative seaweed products in their North American restaurants.
Loliware’s seaweed-resin straws and utensils are designed to resemble and function like plastic but can fully compost within 50 days. This is a significant step toward combating the environmental impact of single-use plastics, as it is estimated by National Geographic Magazine and other sources that over 100 million plastic utensils are used daily in the U.S., contributing to pollution on beaches and in oceans worldwide. Loliware’s mission goes beyond waste elimination to encompass responsible ocean aquaculture and fair trade practices.
Manufactured in Missouri, Loliware’s seaweed-based forks, knives, and spoons are the world’s first of their kind. They provide a sustainable alternative to limit the accumulation of single-use plastics in landfills and oceans.
The partnership kicks off in Chicago, where Loliware straws are introduced at Bar Mar, Bazaar Meat by José Andrés, and Jaleo. The plan is to expand the use of Loliware products to JAG properties in DC and eventually across the entire country.
In addition to featuring Loliware’s ocean-friendly products, JAG’s Research & Development team will work closely with Loliware to create unique and customized serveware. This partnership aims to showcase the synergy between José Andrés’ award-winning creativity and the shared commitment to purpose-driven dining.
Sam Bakhshandehpour, President of José Andrés Group, emphasized the importance of considering not just the food itself but also the sustainability of the service ware, including the plates, forks, and straws. He expressed excitement about collaborating with Loliware to bring innovation to their restaurants and push the boundaries of service ware.
Loliware is a woman-owned tech company that aims to replace single-use plastics with products that naturally disappear. Through partnerships with experts in regenerative aquaculture worldwide, Loliware utilizes its proprietary SEATech resins and products to contribute to the expansion of the “blue economy.” Their compostable seaweed-based Blue Ocean straws have already gained popularity among famous chefs, restaurant chains, and eco-conscious hotels. Loliware’s SEATech resins are now available for licensing globally, driving the planet toward a plastic-free and decarbonized future.
Loliware CEO Sea F. Briganti expressed their enthusiasm for partnering with José Andrés Group, acknowledging the iconic status of the group and their leader’s contributions to culinary innovation and humanitarian relief efforts. Briganti believes this partnership speaks to the transformative potential of Loliware’s SEATech resins.
José Andrés Group (JAG), led by Chef and Founder José Andrés and President Sam Bakhshandehpour, is a creative team behind renowned dining concepts and a dynamic media company. With a mission to change the world through food, JAG operates over 30 restaurant concepts across various cities and countries. From food trucks to Michelin-starred tasting menus, JAG offers diverse culinary experiences. In addition to their restaurants, JAG’s media company, formed in 2021, focuses on sharing food-related stories through television series, books, podcasts, and digital content. José Andrés, an internationally recognized culinary innovator, humanitarian, and bestselling author, has received numerous accolades for his contributions to the industry and his philanthropic efforts.
U.S. Postal Service Release 4 New Forever Stamps with Skateboard Designs
The U.S. Postal Service, also known as the USPS, has continued its path of embracing different American cultures and lifestyles in its stamp designs, including the Thrasher way of life. The release of 4 stamps on March 24, 2023 is collectively called the Art of the Skateboard, and if you’ve ever seen skateboarders in the Olympics, or just Tony Hawk, plus the cool graphics on their boards, then you know that’s a very accurate title.
Art director Antonio Alcalá designed the stamp issuance, using photographs of skateboards created for these stamps. The bold artwork emblazoned on a skateboard deck is often as eye-catching and individualistic as a skater’s most breathtaking moves. As described by the USPS, “Fiercely independent and often rebellious, the skateboarding subculture crackles with raw creative energy.”
The Art of the Skateboard stamps are denominated as Forever stamps and will always be equal in value to the current First-Class Mail 1-ounce price. These four stamps celebrate the Art of the Skateboard with vibrant designs that capture skateboarding’s excitement and reflect the diversity and influences of the four artists whose work is featured:
- Crystal Worl, an Alaskan artist used a blue and indigo salmon formline design to express her Tlingit/Athabascan heritage.
- William James Taylor Jr, a self-taught Virginia artist created an energetic red and orange graphic abstraction.
- Federico “MasPaz” Frum, a Colombian-born, Washington, D.C.-raised muralist painted a stylized jaguar.
- Di’Orr Greenwood, of Arizona represented her Navajo culture with a turquoise-inlaid skateboard that features eagle feathers and colors of the rising or setting sun.
Collectors, and mailers, can find the stamps at Post Offices and at usps.com/shopstamps.
Time to Gen Up on Zaddy’s Next Gin-eration Canned Cocktails
The world continues to look for more convenience in its pleasures, and that extends to convenient and delicious pre-made cocktails. Zaddy’s Next Gin-eration Canned Cocktails has gained quite a following, especially among Gen Z drinkers. These pre-mixed cocktails come in a variety of flavors that make it easy to enjoy a tasty drink without having to find the ingredients, the recipe, and then mixing it yourself.
The range of flavors offered by Zaddy’s Next Gin-eration Canned Cocktails is impressive. There are several different gin-based flavors.
The first flavor we tried of Zaddy’s Next Gin-eration Canned Cocktail is the Gin Sonic, a blend of gin, lime, mint, and splash of seltzer water. This light and refreshing drink is perfect for a hot summer day or an outdoor party. It also pairs perfectly with light snacks or appetizers.
The second flavor was the Gin(ger) Fizz, a blend of gin, lemon, ginger, raw honey, and seltzer. This bright and zangy cocktail is good for a summer brunch or a poolside party. The honey and lemon and ginger pair smoothly with salty snacks (or really anything that’s not very sweet).
The third flavor was the Corpse Reviver. Yes, that is a skeleton on the can, and it apparently gives you the impression that this one is going to wake you up from the dead. Or maybe from a hangover you already have. The Corpse Reviver is a blend of gin, orange, lemon, fennel, and seltzer. We’re not going to attest to any supernatural powers, but it is definitely tasty.
The convenience of these canned cocktails is what really sets them apart. All of the cocktails are pre-mixed and ready to drink, so no time is wasted on mixing cocktails. The cans are also environmentally friendly in that their labels are perforated to allow the shrink sleeve to be efficiently removed from the aluminum and then correctly recycled.
If you are watching your calorie consumption when you eat and drink, it’s good to note that the Zaddy’s can are all low in sugar (2 to 3 grams), and have only 100 calories. That’s actually less than a can of San Pellegrino Limonata, which checks in with 9g of sugar per 100ml and 120 calories a can… and that’s alcohol-free water!
The taste is also excellent, offering a balance of flavors that is sure to please even the pickiest of palates, and Zaddy’s Next Gin-eration Canned Cocktails do not disappoint. Each of the cocktails is well-balanced and flavorful, with just the right amount of sweetness.
