Now in my own life, breaking out of a cage was a big part of the reason that we were able to be so successful.

So cage number one went something like this.

Hey guys, cool bar idea that you have, but this bar can't be made.
voice-verified
okay, why can't this bar be made?
voice-verified
We heard that from multiple people, actual manufacturers, the bar can't be made.
voice-verified
And I thought, thinking from first principles, that just isn't a true statement.
voice-verified
So does this bar somehow violate the laws of physics?
voice-verified
No, it does not.
voice-verified
But it really doesn't work on the equipment that's available.
voice-verified
Why not?
voice-verified
Oh, the punchline ended up being super weird.
voice-verified
The reason that our bar couldn't be made on any of the commercially available equipment was because for the last 70 years, more now,
voice-verified
All of the manufacturing equipment was engineered assuming that you're gonna use high fructose corn syrup.
voice-verified
Why?
voice-verified
Because the government subsidizes the production of corn and high fructose corn syrup is cheap and delicious.
voice-verified
So you have a thing that's cheap, delicious and subsidized.
voice-verified
And now all of a sudden,
voice-verified
you as a manufacturer of equipment really can't assume that people are gonna have high fructose corn syrup because it's so good.
voice-verified
It preserves things.
voice-verified
It's delicious.
