Let's Plate! is introducing itself to the world with a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign to raise funds for its affordable and nutritious combination lunches for kids. The plant-powered meals are available in high-quality varieties like pepperoni cheese pizza, a ham & cheese cracker stacker and PB&J, each of which lets kids play a part in assembling their own meals.
Founded by a husband-and-wife team, Let's Plate! was inspired by a real couple's experiences as new parents. As co-founder Shawn Jang says, "There weren't any kids meals available that checked off the big boxes: healthy, convenient, affordable and delicious. As parents, we realized we could do something about it."
Notably, the kid-friendly lunch products are packaged in fully biodegradable and/or 100% recyclable materials.
