This week we chat with Serena McDonnell, a data scientist and quant researcher who, in her spare time, created Foodshake — a web app that converts any recipe to vegan. Inspired by her father’s reluctance to cook for her after she went plant-based Serena realized she could funnel all the conversions she’d figured out on her own (and with the help of testers in the Toronto veg community) into an application that makes adapting old family recipes, or any dish you find online, as easy as plant-based pie.
