## About

Based in New York, US, and founded in 2017 by CEO Sharon Rose Cryan, FoodNerd Inc. operates as a provider of nutrient-dense snacks made through advanced cold processing methods to support children's health and development. In January 2026, FoodNerd Inc. raised USD 7.5 million in seed funding led by Selva Ventures, with participation from Spacestation Investments, S2 Venture Partners, and Cistern Capital.

The company provides a wide range of toddler nutrition products, such as Mega Puffs, with ingredients such as dates, pineapple, sprouted seed blend, mango, blueberry, and grapes, to toddlers aged 12 months and older, offering options like Blue, Yellow, Green, Red, and Orange Mega Puffs. Additionally, the company offers Intro Powders, Melts, Cookies, and Adult Snacks.


The company generates revenue primarily through the sale of its food products on its e-commerce platform. This includes various packs of Mega Puffs like Green Mega Puffs, Yellow Mega Puffs, and Orange Mega Puffs, each priced at INR 500. The company will use the January 2026 funding to scale manufacturing, expand distribution, and invest in research and development.
