Krista Gillis - Epicure

As a trained Chef who has worked in the food industry for over 15 years, I have had the opportunity to learn a lot about food, nutrition, and health. I have seen first-hand the struggles of people with food and diet-related illnesses. It is of the highest importance to me to know where my food is coming from, and to choose only safe, quality ingredients to nourish myself, my customers, and my family. The Facts: 1 in 2 adults are overweight. 382 million people live with diabetes. 83 million people have heart disease. 80% of all chronic disease and premature death is preventable with healthy living. Clean eating is key. That’s right. It’s time to take back our kitchens and commit to making healthy food choices for ourselves and our families. I am so excited that my career with Epicure gives me the opportunity to share my food and cooking knowledge with others, and helps people to make more informed decisions on the foods they are feeding their families. Not all food is created equal, and I am thankful that I am able to be a driving force on educating people about clean and healthy eating. At Epicure, we’re not radical fanatics; we’re passionate realists who challenge the food industry and rally around clean eating. Epicure is dedicated to providing delicious meal solutions that use only real, whole ingredients you can trust, while never, ever compromising on taste. We’re here to educate and inspire with a three-course solution—for ourselves, our children, and our planet. With Epicure, we can all rewrite our relationship with food and eat clean. Change your plate and change the world.
