Culinary support for independent students

Every day, university students who live alone skip meals or live off easy to prepare dishes such as instant ramen. Usually this is due to some form of scarcity in their lives, whether it be time, financial or experience in the kitchen. Often this stems from their living circumstances before moving out, commonly coming from families where parents did all the cooking and now when independent, these students must juggle the pressures of student life coupled with the need to sustain oneself with a healthy diet. Nurio aims to help these students by providing not only raw ingredients but also by pairing them with teaching in the form of interactive recipes and community support to help shift cooking from a solitary chore to an experience that can be shared and used to better ones life.
