Co-founder Jonathan Neman tells Recode’s Kara Swisher the company is way bigger than a chain of salad restaurants: “We see this as building the food platform.” To be like other restaurants, the fast-food salad chain Sweetgreen might join the crowd in partnering with a tech giant like Amazon or Uber.
