Looking forward to listening to this. I've used Bento a few times and know @jasondemant (met him when he worked with @jason at This Week in Startups).

Companies aren't easy, and hearing them make their tough decisions is a great view into it.

Thanks @jasondemant and @vcardillo for sharing a brutally honest story with us. Actually, I am a big fan of Bento. I love their food and its quick delivery service. I wish the best of luck to them on their startup journey!

Jason is one of the most helpful and transparent founders I've met so far. This episode is a public service to founders who only get exposure to hyped up success and feel isolated during tough times. I'm reminded of a quite I heard recently 'don't compare your story against somebody else's highlight reel.' Thanks for posting!
