The Heart of RioGood
In the spring of 2020, Claudia, couldn’t quite sit still. An adventurer at heart, she was raised in a small town in Southern Brazil. Before learning how to drive, Claudia learned how to fly a plane and never looked back. She spent most of her life as a flight attendant and flying planes (even though women weren't allowed to be commercial pilots in Brazil at the time), experiencing the world and all the food and people it had to offer.
Good luck taking a picture like this with no people.

Claudia was told she had to move out the next day.
Imagine doing this today.
In 2007, she settled down in Austin, TX to raise a family that was fueled by her fiery spirit. Brazilian cheese bread was always a staple at the dinner table, until, empowered by a love of animals and the planet, Claudia decided to go vegan. In 2020, like many others, Claudia found herself with some extra time on her hands and began to experiment in the kitchen. After months of weighing, mixing, and weighing some more, Claudia finally recreated the food that her family loved so dearly, rebranding it as the Ch-Easy Bread.
With her new, plant-based Brazilian Cheese bread in hand, she started RioGood, a company all about making it easy to adopt a plant-based lifestyle. We believe that by making it easier for people to adopt a more sustainable diet, we can change the food system for the better.
