CLEAN FOODS, CLEAR BENEFITS

Why Boring Foods Company

We started Boring Foods because we believe in the quiet power of ingredients your grandmother swears by: haldi, black pepper, ginger. The basic, overlooked stuff that actually works.

However, these ingredients only unlock their full health potential when they’re sourced and processed right, and that’s where we come in.

We carefully source them, skip the middlemen, test for purity and potency, and tell you exactly what’s inside.

And, we’re called Boring because there’s nothing added — no gimmicks, no shortcuts. Just clean, potent ingredients that do what they should.

Mountain-Grown. Potent by Nature.

Lakadong Turmeric Powder

Our turmeric is sourced fresh from Muleih, a small village in East Jaintia Hills, Meghalaya, a region that produces some of the most potent turmeric across the world. Turmeric from this region naturally contains 8–12% curcumin, the powerful compound behind its health benefits. That’s a sharp contrast to most market turmeric, which contains just 1–3%.

We add just a tiny pinch of black pepper to boost curcumin absorption—enough to enhance bioavailability, not change the taste.

It’s grown by smallholder families, led by women, who’ve been farming without chemical inputs for generations. We’re proud to support this community and work directly with them to bring you turmeric that’s not just potent, but responsibly grown.

The Birth Of Boring Foods: Founders’ Journey

Anvi and Varuni met in Bihar while working on economic development research, bonded over their shared passion for systems change, and went on to build The Boring Foods Company together.
With backgrounds in impact evaluation, agri-tech, and digital inclusion, they blend data-driven thinking with deep community understanding.
They believe in transparent supply chains, the power of indigenous knowledge, and that simple, honest food builds lasting trust.
