BRAINBUZZ: Born in the Recovery Room
I never planned to start a spice rub company. My plan was simpler: get the tumor out of my head and go back to normal life.

Back in early November of 2025, I woke up from voluntary brain surgery with a shaved scalp, a titanium plate holding my skull together, and a nurse asking if I wanted apple juice. What I wanted was flavor – something sharp enough to cut through the fog of anesthesia and the bland hospital food.
That night, wired to monitors, I started scribbling on the back of a meal menu. Red chili powder for heat. Bell pepper, carrot powders, tropical powders for sweetness. Smoked paprika for a whisper of smoke. A name that made me grin through the haze: “BRAINBUZZ Spice Rub”.
The doctors removed a benign tumor the size of a walnut. I removed every excuse I’d ever had for playing small.
The First Batch Was Therapy
Six weeks of tweaking, tasting, designing, and labeling bottles with one hand while the other held an ice pack to my incision. The result: a spice rub that starts sweet, blooms smoky, then detonates with chili heat – exactly the jolt my brain needed to remember it still worked.
Every Bottle Funds the Next Breakthrough
BRAINBUZZ isn’t just spice rub. It’s proof that the brightest ideas can spark on the dimmest days. Every bottle funds ongoing research into benign brain tumors – because nobody should have to choose between a headache and a dream.
Two Promises in Every Pour
- Your taste buds: A 3-second ride from “nice” to “NEED MORE.”
- Someone else’s tomorrow: Real dollars for real research.
Grab a Bottle. Feel the Buzz.
Taste the rub that turned a hospital menu into a mission. Because some flavors only hit after you’ve stared down the thing that could have silenced you forever.
