I sat down with Aaron Gatti, a first-generation Italian American and the founder of Brami, a brand that's reinventing Italian slow-food traditions for the modern consumer. Aaron's passion for heritage, health, and innovation shows up in every part of Brami—from their Lupini Bean Snacks to their Italian Protein Pasta, both made in Italy and packed with plant-based protein.
