MealSquares (the company I'm starting with fellow LW user RomeoStevens) is searching for nutrition experts to join our advisory team. The ideal person has a combination of formally recognized nutrition expertise & also at least a casual interest in things like study methodology and effect sizes (this unfortunately seems to be a rare combination). Advising us will be an opportunity to improve the diets of many people, it should not be much work, you'll get a small stake in our company, and you'll help us earn money for effective giving. Please get in touch with us (ideally using this page) if you or someone you know might be interested!

Do you have any plans for international shipping? (Say, the UK)

We've experimented with doing international shipping. It gets expensive, and it's also a bit of a hassle. It makes more sense if you're doing a group buy (90+ squares). If you really want MealSquares and you're willing to pay a bunch extra for international shipping, contact us and we can work out details. Long term we would love to set up production facilities in foreign countries like a regular multinational, but that won't be for a while.
