Jordan Nathan: 我曾经经历过一次可怕的特氟龙中毒事件,这促使我开始关注炊具的安全性。当时我在测试一款新的特氟龙涂层锅,因为疏忽导致锅子空烧了很长时间,结果公寓里充满了烟雾,我开始感到不适。在咨询了中毒控制中心后,我得知自己很可能暴露于特氟龙中毒。这件事让我开始深入研究特氟龙和其他厨房材料的危害,我意识到自己一直在销售这些有毒产品,这让我感到非常不安。因此,我决定利用自己在厨房领域的经验,创立一个以无毒材料为核心的品牌,这就是Caraway的由来。我希望通过Caraway,让更多人意识到炊具安全的重要性,并为他们提供更健康的选择。 Mari Llewellyn: 我觉得现在是假期期间,每个人都在做饭、烘焙,所有的炊具都拿出来了,所以现在是讨论无毒炊具为何如此重要的最佳时机。我认为人们越来越了解炊具,以及为什么有意识地关注所用材料中可能存在的毒素非常重要。我非常喜欢Caraway,去年我们把他们的炊具作为节日礼物送给了整个团队。Jordan不仅是一家我们喜爱的公司的CEO,他还真正理解无毒生活方式的重要性,并致力于让更多人能够接触到它。
