Imperfect Offerings
snaxshot.substack.com

A newsletter on upcoming food and beverage trends that offers a curation of brands and aesthetics written by Andrea Hernández.

Snaxshot is ad-free as we are community funded, if you enjoy our content, contribute here. 🤗

Snaxshot defines curation in two ways:

  1. as the removal of friction around the process of discovery

  2. adding necessary friction in pro of enjoyment of discovery, like a way of edging (delaying the orgasm)

“Pantry items want to be seen!” I write only half jokingly because, oh to be a pantry item on a shelf, just waiting to be discovered!

Curated grocers, post pandemic can be seen as sensorial temples, and every item lined up as an offering and when we give in tribute, that alchemical process within us, dopamine hits having discovered something new.

They allow us to enjoy in a sense of wonder, and after having been stuck in a sensory deprivation tank, we yearn to reignite the senses. I hope you know that this account is for you

  • the reader

  • the product

  • the founder

  • the grocer

in a way to honor and thank you for bringing forth these temples where we can commune in what is inherently human—thank you for despite having inherited ruins post pandemic, you have all put forth effort to rebuild your temples, sharing in your offerings, and helping us rebuild our sense of humanity —our senses.

Curating is a way of transporting you,

where no algorithm has taken you before.

happy weekend, much love 🛒
