You Are Not An Astronaut

Yanaa is a pioneering food project dedicated to redefining how endurance athletes nourish themselves — physically, emotionally, and culturally. Born from the belief that performance fuel doesn’t have to be synthetic, bland, or clinical, Yanaa creates chef-crafted, savoury food pouches designed for adventurers, explorers, and athletes who believe food should be joyful, natural, and deeply connected to place. The name Yanaa is an acronym for You Are Not An Astronaut, a playful provocation that sums up the brand’s mission: to resist the techno-utopianism of processed “space food” and instead offer real, delicious food grounded in Earthly pleasures. Whether on a trail run in the Alps or a long-distance cycle across rural France, Yanaa’s products are meant to sustain energy and spark delight, proving that athletes don’t need to compromise on taste or ethics to perform at their best. Each 100g pouch blends organic vegetables, legumes, herbs, and oils into balanced savoury purées — not sugary gels or artificial powders. Inspired by Mediterranean and alpine cuisines, flavours include combinations like Beetroot & Balsamic, Pea & Mint, Goat’s Cheese & Walnut, and Camargue Olive with Sea Salt. Cooked by chefs, each pouch is scientifically tested for digestibility, gut health, and sustained energy release — ideal for consumption before, during, or after intense activity. Yanaa’s mission extends beyond nutrition. The brand is also a cultural and ecological project. https://yanaa.food
