File No. 333-284180
Ladies and Gentlemen:
By letter dated February 6, 2025, the staff (the
“Staff,” “you” or “your”) of the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”) provided Functional Brands Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us”
or “our”) with its comments to the Company’s Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed January
28, 2025. We are in receipt of your letter and set forth below are the Company’s responses to the Staff’s comments.
Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on
Form S-1 Filed January 28, 2025
Selling Stockholders, page 89
1. We note that you have now included the above-entitled
section in the Public Offering Prospectus; however, this is inconsistent with the Explanatory Note at the start of the registration statement
which indicates that the Public Offering Prospectus will be used for the public offering only and not the resale of shares contemplated
in the alternative pages. Please explain why you have included this section in the Public Offering Prospectus or remove the section from
page 89.
Response: The company has made
the revisions on its amended registration statement to address the Staff’s comment.
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting
Firm, page F-30
2. Please tell us why this report is not dated
to address the retroactive restatement of your financial statements for the reverse stock split effective January 22, 2025. Refer to AS
3110.05 and 3110.07.
Response: The report has been
revised to address the Staff’s comment.
General
3. Please revise the alternative cover page
for the Resale Prospectus to clarify whether the resale offer can proceed if the primary offering does not close, either because the Nasdaq
listing is not obtained or otherwise. If the resale offering is contingent on the closing of the primary offering, please state that the
resale offering may not commence until the primary offering closes, if true. If the resale offering may be conducted concurrently with
the primary offering, please revise your disclosure in the Explanatory Note and on the cover page of both prospectuses to make this clear,
and include risk factor disclosure regarding the implications of the offerings running concurrently, including, but not limited to, the
effect of the resale offering on the price and demand for primary offering shares.
Response: The company has made
the revisions on its amended registration statement to address the Staff’s comment.
Thank you for your assistance in reviewing this
filing.
Very Truly Yours,
/s/ Eric Gripentrog
