Jesse Wolfe was a college student at the University of Central Florida (UCF) when he made his first batch of O’Dang Hummus. It’s a hummus-based sauce that “gives you the creamy taste you love in a dressing without any of the dairy, oil, or preservatives.” Wolfe pitched his business on Shark Tank in 2015 and got a $50,000 investment from Lori Greiner and Robert Herjavec.

Since Shark Tank, Wolfe has been working hard getting O’Dang into dozens of grocery stores. In July, he announced on Facebook that O’Dang Hummus has been invited to The White House. The White House Office of Science and Technology to be exact. Jesse wrote: “We started this company with the goal to push food science to places we have never been! Not by adding chemicals and fake flavors, but REAL FOOD. Fixing Packaging instead of fillers and preservatives! We are trying to make America’s Food System healthy again…We WILL change fix this county, ONE bite at a TIME.”
