Food × Mind × Technology
Independent Project & Innovation Partner — Food, Health & Wellbeing
I work at the intersection of food science, psychology and technology—exploring how science, behaviour and AI can help us live healthier, more sustainable lives. My project work connects these perspectives with quality, strategy, product development and practical delivery.

Introduction
I’m Ebe Meitern-Vare, an independent project and innovation partner with a professional foundation in food science, quality and regulation, and an expanding focus on psychology, digital products and AI. I can join a team for a focused assignment or work alongside it regularly—connecting scientific detail, human understanding and digital possibilities to move an idea towards a practical outcome.
My background
My work has developed as a progression: from understanding food, to improving systems, to understanding people—and building better solutions from those perspectives.
Explore my experienceMSc in Chemical Engineering, specialising in Food Technology
Food technology gave me the scientific foundation for understanding ingredients, production and safety. My early professional work extended this into public-sector food regulation, including EU and international regulatory work connected to Codex Alimentarius.
Quality, processes and international collaboration
Across my career, my work has spanned food safety, regulation, commercial quality, product development and innovation—alongside product lifecycle management, digital transformation and cross-functional international work.
Psychology, behaviour, UX and everyday choices
Questions about how people interpret information and make decisions led me towards Google UX Design training and an MSc in Psychology, which I am currently completing with particular interest in behaviour, wellbeing and decision-making.
AI, digital innovation and Fuudit
Additional learning in Python and SQL has supported my growing work with digital products and AI. These threads now converge in Fuudit, where I am exploring food, technology, sustainability, behaviour and personalised nutrition through a practical product lens.

Food × Mind × Technology
I’m fascinated by the connection between what we eat, how we think and how we feel—and by the role technology can play in helping us make better everyday choices.
My background in food science and quality, combined with my current studies in psychology, has increasingly drawn me towards the intersection of nutrition, behaviour, mental wellbeing and longevity.
I’m particularly interested in translating complex science into practical, realistic approaches to everyday wellbeing—without perfection, extremes or quick fixes.

Building Fuudit
Fuudit is the food-tech platform I’m building: an AI-powered kitchen companion designed to help people understand and use the food they already have, reduce household food waste, discover relevant recipes and make everyday food decisions easier.
This work is also a practical way to explore longer-term questions around personalised nutrition, food behaviour, smarter meal decisions and AI-supported everyday wellbeing. These are directions for Fuudit’s development—not promises of functionality that already exists.
Example assignments
Illustrative possibilities—not presented as completed client projects.
Engagement options
Choose a focused conversation, a defined project or flexible, ongoing support.
Sparring session
A focused 15–30-minute conversation to explore an idea, challenge or project and identify the most valuable next steps.
Focused project
A clearly defined assignment such as a concept, recipe collection, research project, evidence review, process improvement or documentation package.
Flexible, ongoing support
Regular hands-on support over an agreed period—typically a few hours or one day per week—combining strategic advice with research, creation, coordination and delivery.
The duration and working rhythm are shaped around the project, team and intended outcomes.
Discuss a partnershipEach engagement is shaped around two or three agreed outcomes, so the scope remains flexible while the expected value and deliverables stay clear.
Pricing available following
an initial conversation.
Project partnership
Strategic thinking and practical creation stay connected throughout the engagement.
Understand the challenge, review existing materials and agree on the most valuable outcomes.
Research, create, coordinate, test and refine the work together with the relevant team.
Finalise the agreed outputs, present the recommendations and determine whether implementation, handover or continued support would be most useful.
