Forbes: Fresh Take: Unearthed Texts From McDonald’s CEO, Padma Lakshmi’s Plan For Diverse Supermarket Shelves, Meatflation And A Dumpling Party

Why Padma Lakshmi Is Joining DAH! As An Investor. 

Indian-American author and TV host Padma Lakshmi is joining DAH! as an investor, board advisor and brand partner. DAH!, which means “yogurt” in Hindi, is an Indian-inspired natural foods company. While celebrity food partnerships are common, it is rare for Lakshmi to attach herself to a food brand. “American culture is a microcosm of the world’s foods and cultures, because that’s who built America—waves and waves of immigrants and Indigenous peoples and African Americans. Our food and our food retail spaces should also reflect that diversity,” Lakshmi says. (From Forbes contributor Shayna Harris)
