  • When I was 11/12 and first going vegetarian I was pretty disturbed by the material PETA included in their informational packet. Why would anyone want a poster or a sticker of an animal at slaughter let alone multiple image options for both formats? I was scared my parents would find it and think I was into some kind of cult.

    (I don’t think they’re an industry plant though, they just don’t have the most effective tactics).












  • I’ve been a vegetarian for a long time and beyond meat/impossible meat aren’t my favorite flavor or texture. I still opt for the older substitutes like Morningstar (kellogg) and Gardein (conagra) when I need a substitute for a cookout or something. I know they were hoping to market to people who eat meat though so maybe this anecdote is irrelevant. I wonder if impossible, which is private, is similarly losing money.
