I don’t want to be a yuppie. I really don’t. I never intended to live in a city, and I still prefer the country. But my eating habits are about as yuppie as they get. I’m not a full fledged foodie quite yet, but I guess I’m on my way. I like going out to new restaurants, and I’ve been known to buy organic products. I’m not proud of it, but it’s something that I must come to terms with. A good way to start might be by using Foodzie. It’s a San Francisco based company/website where “you’ll find fabulous food and beverages made by small food companies.” It’s like Etsy, but for food. A variety of purveyors use Foodzie to sell their products—it may be Michigan Venison Company selling 1 lb of ground venison or Made to Crave selling Cinnamon Raisin Gluten Free Granola Bars. Foodzie is kind of like an online farmer’s market, but a really good one with everything that you can imagine, and you never need to leave your house.
It may seem a little strange to buy such unique food items online, but if the shipping is fast and the quality is top notch, I can’t see why you wouldn’t want to order from Foodzie. The site looks great, and it’s loaded with gorgeous pictures of delicious offerings. You obviously can’t taste the food through the computer, but how often do you taste things before buying anyway? The Internet was made to expand markets, and Foodzie is doing the legwork to build the community necessary for a thriving marketplace. We’ve seen plenty of startups succeed doing the same thing for different types of goods and services, and I think now is the time for buying food online to go mainstream. Foodzie seems to have a jump on the competition, and the way they’re doing it is awesome. If you’d like to be involved, all you need to do is reach out to them at jobs@foodzie.com and tell them about yourself. They don’t list any positions on their Careers page, but they do say that they want to hear from interested people. And don’t forget to tell them where you came from. Their site says: “If your referral is hired, we’ll throw a personal tasting party for you and 50 of your closest friends, with the most unique products from Foodzie!” I want that tasting party!
