WHOLE FOOD PLANT-BASED DELIVERY WITH MAMASEZZ
Caroline DiNicola Fawley is a plant-based chef, who does business development and product design for the whole food plant-based delivery company, MamaSezz. Caroline has been vegan since 2016 after conducting her senior thesis on the dietary shift in Samoa and taking several courses on the impact of factory farming. Her plant-based college coach helped her make the transition, and in a matter of months, she was fully vegan. When choosing a career path, Caroline wanted to find a field that positively impacted people in need, the planet, or animals. She hit the jackpot and found one that does all 3, and incorporates her love of the culinary arts.
Through MamaSezz she is able to contribute to a business that produces whole food plant-based meals, donates 60-120 pounds of fresh, healthy meals per week to shelters, encourages recycling by providing free return shipping for the customer’s recyclables, saves lives by helping people lose weight, reverse disease, and prevent disease, and of course, save animals from needless suffering by being 100% vegan!
MamaSezz was founded after co-founder Meg Donaue’s mother, Millie, was sent into Hospice care for her congestive heart failure and 10% heart function. Meg refused to give up, and found Dr. Esselstyn’s, “Preventing and Reversing Heart Disease ” and decided to give a WFPB diet a try! Within months, Millie went from an inability to walk on her own, to driving, doing yoga, and playing with her grandkids. Her heart function was back to normal within a few years, and recently she turned 90 years old! Meg and her partner, Lisa, decided to make whole-food plant-based eating easy for all by creating a company that does the cooking for you! Do like your MamaSezz: eat your fruits and veggies and go out and play. Check out Chef AJ’s interview with Millie and Meg, HERE.
