In this episode I interview TJ Galiardi, TJ went from being an all star veteran pro Hockey player to an incredibly successful food sustainability entrepreneur. He played 10 season for teams such as the Colorado Avalanche, San Jose Sharks, Calgary Flames and Winnipeg Jets before retiring and discovering his passion for food sustainability. With over 100 billion tons of unused food being wasted and thrown away each year, TJ realized there must be a way to make use of all of that produce before it goes to waste. Together with his business partner, they created Outcast Foods, a company that takes unused produce, and with their cutting edge process called upcycling, they can turn it into all kinds of ingredients while retaining almost of it?s nutrients.
