This week on WorkParty, recorded live from Austin at this year’s SXSW, Jaclyn Johnson and Marina Middleton sit down with a true game-changer in the world of food, Jeni Britton. Not only is she the founder of Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams (aka, your favorite pint in the freezer aisle), but she’s sharing all about building her next iconic brand, Floura & Co.
Bold, brilliant, and mission-driven, Floura isn’t just another food startup. It’s an ambitious new venture, out to tackle two massive problems: America’s food waste and the fiber crisis, all at the same time! Jeni’s goal is to upcycle 100 million pounds of fruits and veggies headed for the landfill and turn them into delicious, fiber-packed foods people actually want to eat. Jeni gets into how her personal health journey led to this surprising revelation and what sparked the discovery to create this brand.
In this episode, Jeni shares how she’s applying everything she learned from her first brand to build and scale something completely new. She’ll touch on why she believes fiber is the next protein, and what it takes to launch a truly disruptive product in an industry that’s overdue for innovation. From embracing slower growth, to tackling chronic illness through food, Jeni is proof that entrepreneurship can evolve with purpose. A great conversation for those dreaming of launching something that just might change how people live, and eat!

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
