Xin Wang and Melissa Colella-Wang founded Jica Foods, chips made from jicama. The husband and wife duo wanted to get away from traditional potato chips and decided to use jicama, a Mexican yam, as the main ingredient. Flavors include sea salt, smoked BBQ, white cheddar and cinnamon sugar. Not to mention, this snack option is low-calorie and high fiber. Xin and Melissa have since expanded their brand into wraps and sticks. Wraps can be used like any taco shell; sticks are seasoned with cilantro or chili lime. They’re already in select stores – but can a shark help them go that extra mile?

Kudos is a sustainable diaper brand founded by Amrita Saigal. What originally started as a concept for a sustainable sanitary pad for women made of banana tree fiber turned into a mission to create a leak-free sustainable diaper. Amrita knew that sustainability could also be elegant, and that through innovative engineering, a product could be made that would better parent’s lives. Thus the diaper was born: it’s hypoallergenic, breathable and ultra-soft. Plus, there are fun patterns and no irritants. Win-win! Amrita has put in the work, but perhaps a shark can take her brand to the next level.

Lisa and Randall Pawlik created Vo Chill, a stemmed and stemless wine chiller brand. It’s an elevated, effortless way to chill your drink. Vo Chill keeps your wine crisp and cool by pulling heat from the glass for long-lasting temperature control. There are stemmed and stemless wine chillers available in sleek colors like stone, blush or quartz. Lisa and Randall have taken Amazon by storm, as well as the online market, but perhaps getting in stores is the next goal. Can their pitch interest a shark enough to make that possibility a reality?
Where to buy: https://vochill.com/ or on their Amazon Storefront
You can get the stemless wine chillers on Amazon. They were included on Oprah’s list of Favorite Things!
