Fake meat companies promise that they are on track to replace factory farmed meat. Is there any indication that this is happening? Or are they just a new revenue stream for tech investors and the biggest and most problematic meat companies — Purdue, Tyson, JBS — who are all now making alternative meats? We also cover how these products taste and what else we could be eating instead of an ultra-processed “fast food” product.
This is the second episode of a two-part look at fake meat.
