About Us
Clean Food Dirty Girl helps people eat more plants while celebrating human imperfection.
How we Started
Molly Patrick and Luanne Teoh met in Oakland, CA, in 2008. With a tech background, two suitcases, and a one-way ticket, Luanne immigrated to the United States from Malaysia in 2002. Molly was a San Francisco Bay area transplant from a small town in New Mexico with a passion for helping people eat more plants.
They always talked about starting an online business together, but they both had full-time jobs, so the idea was left simmering on the back burner. In 2013, Molly was fired from her job, and Luanne was freelancing, so they decided to combine their skills and create what is now Clean Food Dirty Girl.
It wasn’t an easy start, but they persevered and didn’t give up. Thanks to a lot of grit, kale, late nights, a generous financial gift from Luanne’s mom, and endless emotional support from Molly’s mom, Clean Food Dirty Girl eventually became a success. They have been privately owned and independent since 2014.
