Brett Aube Founder Conundrum Trail Mix -- Episode 5 Great Food Great Stories Podcast Episode 5 of the Great Food Great Stories Podcast is here! In this episode I visit with Brett Aube Founder of Conundrum Trail Mix. In this episode Brett shares how he started his company making granola and why he has pivoted to trail mix, he shares an amusing story about Portland and the Cantina theme from Star Wars, and what is in his excellent trail mix. Brett also shares what it is like to launch a culinary startup in Portland, what effort it takes to launch a startup, what keeps him going through the tough times, the culinary startups that inspired him, and the role that social media has played in his company’s success. Toward to end of this podcast we chat about what beverages Conundrum Trail Mix pairs well with. Brett’s pairing suggestions were not at all what I expected, but they were spot on! The Great Food Great Stories Podcast is brought to you by Portland Culinary Radio, and is recorded at Culmination Brewing Company. Steven Shomler is your host. Many thanks to Ken Wilson the Media Maestro for his amazing engineering and editing!
