Banana Loca's Shark Tank Story
<p>When I saw Banana Loca on Shark Tank I knew they were a winning team. What peeked my interest was how they LOVED to visit inventor shows together and look at new creative ideas. I mean who does that right? Well luckily they did as it helped them realize their awesome invention of he the Banana Loca. A fun way to eat a a banana and add some flavor to it. They have been growing rapidly since being on Shark Tank so tune in to hear all about it.</p><br><p>More about Banana Loca: For years, best friends Bechara and Renee frequented invention trade shows and shared cool gadget finds. One fruitful day when Bechara was talking about eating Nutella and bananas as a child in Lebanon, Renee commented about how her 15 nieces and nephews love banana slices with peanut butter. And the idea of Banana Loca was born! Besides wanting to do it because there's nothing like it on the market, bananas are just inherently funny right?! Just saying the word seems to make people smile, so they decided to make Banana Loca a reality. The thought of Banana Loca helping families have fun in the kitchen while giving tummies something yummy is everything to them!</p><br><p>https://bananaloca.com/</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Biodegradable Pooch Paper
<p>Do you have a dog? </p><br><p>Wonder how long it takes for that poop bag to biodegrade? Eons.</p><br><p>Well I did until I met Tracey who created Pooch Paper, the first biodegradable paper pooch paper. Tracey is slowly changing the world of poop. Yep I said it again.</p><p>Dive into our conversation about how she created Pooch Paper, where it's being sold ( like everywhere) and how she is expanding into dog parks and city parks with her Pooch Paper dispensers, all to help our landfills degrade faster.</p><br><p>Tracey is passionate about Pooch Paper and I just love her attitude.</p><br><p><strong>Made in the USA,</strong> Pooch Paper is a recycled, non-chlorine bleached paper alternative to single-use plastic dog waste bags. </p><br><p>Our sheets are 100% biodegradable, 100% compostable and are manufactured using renewable energy. Our fluorochemical-free, oil and grease resistant coating is made naturally during the pulp drying process in order to ensure your doggie’s doodie remains inside the paper and not on your hand! Most manufactured products contain PFAS chemicals that are nearly impossible to break down; <strong>Pooch Paper is PFAS-free. </strong></p><br><p><strong>There are an estimated 22 billion pounds of doggie doodie dropped each year in the U.S. alone.</strong></p><br><p>While not all dog parents pick up after their dogs, roughly ten million tons of dog waste and over 500 million plastic doggie bags end up in landfills each year.</p><p>Most doggie parents have become sensitive to the growing awareness around single-use plastics, and have begun to consider how dog waste bags play into this environmental concern. Some pet parents have chosen to “up cycle,” or reuse plastic bags that come from the grocery market, for example. Others use oxo-biodegradable plastic bags, which purport to be eco-friendly. The latest initiative to hit the dog waste bag market includes bioplastics. </p><p>While all of these efforts are one step closer to being eco-friendly, there still remains one common denominator across all of these categories: plastic. </p><p>Research suggests dog owners use more than <strong>500 million</strong> single-use plastic bags for dog waste annually. Plastic is generally not biodegradable - it can take over 500 years to degrade, if it ever does. Some bags are manufactured as oxo-biodegradables, meaning that a formula called EPI is added during the manufacturing process to enable the plastic to break down quicker. However, oxo-biodegradables often do not fully disappear. Instead, they break down into millions of micro-plastic particles that enter the air we breathe, the water we drink and ultimately the food supply we consume. </p><p>Such micro-plastic particles may, among other things, carry toxic or carcinogenic chemicals used in making the plastic, or they can act as a carrier for pathogens and heavy metals. </p><br><p><strong>Our planet and our pups are made to be loved!</strong></p><br><p>https://www.poochpaper.com/</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
