Ep 248 | The White House signed an executive order to quadruple beef imports from Argentina, but not everyone is happy about it. Our question is, does this actually help (or hurt) anyone? This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara break down the latest U.S. beef controversy, Tyson's $48 million settlement for manipulating the price of pork (who's shocked?), and Beyond Meat's newest venture into the protein craze. They also get excited about the new Farmer Wants a Wife cast and a viral reel of orange season in Valencia, Spain. What We Discovered This Week

"You're bombarded with all these messages. Try to think of the one that means the most to you. Is it your kid's health? Is it your health? Is it the environment? Is it nutrition? What resonates with you, and helps you make a shift you feel good about?" The Dietary Guidelines for Americans shape how a nation eats, but the science, politics, and industry forces behind them are rarely discussed. In this can't-miss episode, renowned nutrition scientist Dr. Christopher Gardner, Professor of Medicine at Stanford University and lead researcher of the Netflix Twin Experiment, pulls back the curtain on the latest update: how it was crafted, what's shifted, and where it diverges from the evidence. Dr. Gardner helps us separate fact from manipulation and noise, and offers practical, realistic takeaways for building a balanced, sustainable way of eating. What we discuss in this episode: Dr. Gardner's experience working on the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. What the dietary guidelines would look like if they strictly reflected current scientific evidence. The influence of the dairy and meat industries on the DGA. Ingredients and additives in processed foods that are designed to drive consumption. Tips for improving your diet. Research comparing Beyond Meat to pasture-raised organic red meat. How much vitamin B12 you actually need. Saturated fats in plant foods compared with saturated fats in animal products. The potential of diet to reverse harmful health patterns.

JUST Ice Tea was born from a refusal to let a company's purpose and impact disappear. JUST Ice Tea's roots trace back to Honest Tea, a pioneering brand built on the idea that beverages could be better for people and the planet. But when Honest Tea was ultimately discontinued after being sold, something incredible happened. The founders and long-standing partners across the supply chain came together with a shared resolve that fair trade and environmentally responsible tea would not end with Honest Tea. In just 90 days, their commitment brought the newly created JUST Ice Tea to consumers. And only two years later, JUST Ice Tea has surpassed the revenues of Honest Tea.We invited Seth Goldman, Co-Founder and CEO of JUST Ice Tea—as well as Board Member for Beyond Meat and PLNT Burger—to share the lessons, setbacks, and mindset that shaped his journey. Seth reflects on resilience in the face of loss, the power of long-term relationships, and why impact must be built directly into the product, supply chain, and culture of a company. He offers insights on stakeholder capitalism, the responsibility of boards and investors, and the importance of finding hope where it isn't obvious. His story is an invitation to believe that business can scale purpose, deliver justice, and create profit—one bottle at a time.Listen for insights on:Outperforming traditional growth strategies through resilience and valuesEmbedding impact directly into products, not just marketingThe power of stakeholder relationships in moments of change Resources + Links:Seth Goldman's LinkedInJUST Ice TeaMission in a BottlePurpose Pledge (00:00) - Welcome to Purpose 360 (01:07) - Seth Goldman, Just Ice Tea (02:28) - Seth's Backgrouna dn Commitment to Socially Responsible Business (05:36) - What's Changed About the Movement (07:51) - Frustrations (08:39) - Framework for Embedding Purpose (11:11) - No Downside (11:38) - Learning from Honest Tea (17:57) - Impact to Stakeholders (20:06) - Mission in a Bottle (22:53) - Recommendations for Boards (24:09) - Creating Alignment (24:40) - Purpose Pledge (26:10) - Rapid Fire Questions (27:46) - Last Words (28:24) - Wrap Up
Historia Saule nie chce się skończyć! Kiedy już myślimy, że widzimy pełen obraz sytuacji, pojawia się coś - albo ktoś! - kto sprawia, że trzeba przemyśleć wszystko na nowo.

Playmobil verlässt Deutschland – ist das das Ende einer Marken-Ära? Die Marke hat in den letzten Jahren an Attraktivität verloren und setzte zunehmend auf teure Lizenzen statt auf eine klare eigene Spielidee. Die Werksschließung wirkt deshalb wie das sichtbare Ergebnis eines längeren Markenproblems.Außerdem in den Marken- und Marketingnews der Woche:
Happy Groundhog Day! We kick off the episode by bracing ourselves for a "colossal" impending snowstorm. We discuss the chaos of grocery store panic buying (shoutout to the Delco guy who just wanted Pepsi), Mike's efforts to fix a generator, and Erin's irrational fear of trees "exploding" from the cold.In pop culture, Mike watches the pilot episodes of Severance and Pluribus, explain why Erin refuses to watch Stranger Things, and recount the secondhand embarrassment of filming a content ad while her entire family is trapped in the house. We also break down the viral success of the "Dr. Pepper is Good and Nice" TikTok lady, debating whether her estimated $10k-$50k payout was enough for a national TV spot.We then dive into the "tea" of the tennis world, discussing the drama between Naomi Osaka and her opponent (who gave her an "evil" look), involving a mid-match complaint to the umpire about "hindrance" screams and the hilarity of on-court tattle-telling. We also provide updates on the Craig Conover 10K challenge, celebrate Paralympian Dani Aravich's "A-List" status, and reveal the shocking $368 price tag of the Team USA closing ceremony sweater.Finally, we close the loop on years of fast-food lawsuits—revealing which brands paid out millions (GrubHub, Poppi, Beyond Meat) and which ones got away with "puffery" (McDonald's, Wendy's). To wrap up, we share some book recommendations (Anxious People, The Many Lives of Mama Love) and end with a wholesome "No Bad News" story about a man named Biggie Dave who posted about his free birthday cake on Threads and received thousands of replies.
Did the intern hit send too early on the brand's 2026 April Fool's Day joke? Was this AI image slop designed to distract us from their abysmal stock market performance? Are we actually living in some weird alt-protein simulation? Honestly, I had all those same gut reactions! And while those “hot takes” might be funny…my comedic skills hardly warrant any attention from strangers. So then, what's the key takeaway from Beyond Meat launching protein beverages? Just because you can…doesn't mean you should! And unfortunately, many leaders (plain and simple) lack the strategic discipline required for innovation to strengthen a brand rather than dilute it.

Plus, Toronto-based Waabi secured a $750 million funding round and is partnering with Uber to launch 25,000 robotaxis, marking a major milestone for Canadian tech and Uber's autonomous vehicle ambitions. Beyond Meat pivots from plant-based burgers to protein sodas, Ottawa's negotiations with Meta to restore news on Facebook, the Bank of Canada and Federal Reserve holding interest rates steady, South Korean automaker deals, Amazon's 16,000-worker layoff, and Starbucks' sales turnaround under CEO Brian Niccol.
In this episode, Scott Becker examines Beyond Meat's steep 80% decline over the past year and its move into protein drinks.
If your brand feels too small to matter, this blueprint shows why that might be your unfair advantage.In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews Mark Rampolla, Co-Founder and Co-Managing Partner at GroundForce Capital, who unpacks how a niche idea became a global category. Mark shares the strategy that took ZICO from yoga studios in NYC to nationwide shelves, the discipline behind constant pitching and fundraising, and why exits aren't the finish line. He also discusses his new book on putting freedom first, and his work at Ground Force Capital (backer of brands like Liquid Death and Beyond Meat), helping founders scale both their companies and their lives.Key Takeaways:→ Why “inch-wide, mile-deep” focus beats broad launches for breakthrough CPG growth.→ How pairing a product with a specific usage occasion (post-hot yoga) created early traction.→ The surprising first hurdle: taste—and how “preach to the choir” accelerates momentum.→ Fundraising reality: why you either get profitable fast or get great at raising—continuously.→ The nine-year “overnight success” mindset and the decade-long horizon most wins require.Mark Rampolla is Co-Founder and Co-Managing Partner at GroundForce Capital (GFC), where he works closely with founders and teams to build impactful businesses. He has represented GFC on the boards of leading companies, including Vive Organic, OWYN, Liquid Death, Kinder Farms, Flying Embers, and ZICO Rising. Prior to GFC, Mark founded and served as CEO of ZICO Beverages, pioneering the coconut water category and growing the brand into a global leader before its acquisition by The Coca-Cola Company in 2013. Earlier in his career, he held senior management roles at International Paper, overseeing joint ventures across Latin America and the Caribbean. A Peace Corps alum, Mark has advised more than 100 CEOs, raised over $1B, and invested in 40+ social-impact startups. He is the author of High-Hanging Fruit and holds degrees from Marquette University and Duke University.Connect With Mark:Website: https://www.markrampolla.co/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markrampolla/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marksrampolla/

This fall, Beyond Meat became a meme stock, surging …and then falling right back down. For years, alternative meat companies Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods have struggled to win over customers en masse. Deena Shanker of Bloomberg Businessweek explains where the companies lost their way, and whether they can survive another year. Later, journalist Clint Rainey walks us through his investigation for Fast Company where Beyond and Impossible claimed they were victims of a social media disinformation campaign funded by “Big Beef.” So were the rumors true? Clint breaks it down. Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

It's 2019 and plant-based meats are on fire. But they're also under fire. Supporters of the beef industry start a food fight with the plant-based meat industry. It kicks off on Super Bowl Sunday, with an aggressive TV ad. But Pat Brown's Impossible Foods fights back with an ad of its own. Meanwhile, Ethan Brown pushes Beyond Meat to grow at all costs. As debts mount, Ethan tries to get the king of burgers, McDonald's, to bite on a new plant-based patty. And, as the heat turns up at both companies due to pandemic-induced demand for their products, some employees get queasy about their company's founders.Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

Beyond Meat and Impossible Burger boomed in the 2010s, but changing tastes have turned their sizzle into a fizzle. And as they continue to slide deeper into debt, these companies have struggled to get back on top of the plant-based food chain. . What's next for these meatless giants? Jason Kartalian and Mike Keller, co-hosts of the podcast Vegan Hacks, join David to discuss the future of Beyond Meat, Impossible Burger, and the meatless meat market as a whole.

He sold his company to Coca-Cola for over $200 million — then did something almost no founder ever does. He bought it back. In this episode, Mark Rampolla, founder of ZICO Coconut Water, shares the real story behind creating an entirely new beverage category, selling to one of the biggest corporations in the world, and realizing that financial success doesn't automatically equal freedom. From his early days in the Peace Corps to building a global brand, investing in companies like Beyond Meat, and redefining what success actually means, this conversation goes far deeper than business tactics. Mark opens up about: • Why exits don't always bring freedom • The emotional trap entrepreneurs fall into after success • Building businesses with purpose, not just profit • What he learned buying his own company back • Why questioning your own beliefs may be the real key to success If you're an entrepreneur chasing growth, exits, or impact — this episode will challenge how you define success.
Nutrition advice has never been louder or more polarized. From carnivore-only diets to sugar-only extremes, confident claims often race ahead of the science. In this episode, we explore three stories shaping today's nutrition debate. First, we unpack insights from a Mayo Clinic–trained physician, clinical nutrition expert, and stage 4 cancer survivor, who explains why food is medicine and why plant-forward eating and moderation continue to outperform nutrition fads. We then look at the business and media landscape around plant-based food, including the collapse of Beyond Meat's share price, comments from CEO Ethan Brown, and claims from an industry insider paid to spread anti-vegan messaging online. We also examine the science comparing meat and plant-based alternatives, including the Stanford “Swap Meat” study. Finally, we examine the rise of the carnivore diet online, driven by influencer anecdotes, and why medical experts are pushing back as concerns grow about long-term health risks and misinformation.
It's 2016 and both Pat Brown's Impossible Foods and Ethan Brown's Beyond Meat are cooking up plant-based burgers for mass consumption. Ethan tries to woo Whole Foods executives to carry his Beyond Burger in their stores from coast-to-coast. Pat's taking a different route. He's asking celebrity chefs to put his Impossible Burger — a plant-based meat that bleeds — on their menus. Soon enough, fake meat gets truly famous. But as Beyond Meat tries to cash in on Wall Street and as Impossible Foods gets its patties into Burger King, meat-raising ranchers in America's heartland are on the attack.

It's 2008 and two men, both vegans, ponder what they can do to improve the climate. Though they're on separate sides of the country and in different professions (but they coincidentally share a last name)— Ethan Brown is in the fuel cell business and Pat Brown is a lauded Stanford biochemist — they land on the same solution. They're going to try and lessen the climate impact of animal agriculture by making meat from plants. Ethan calls his company Beyond Meat and notches the first commercial breakthrough, a fake chicken strip. Pat is not far behind, and launches Impossible Foods two years later, setting off a heated rivalry. Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

For most entrepreneurs, the exit is the goal, as well as the end of at least that part of their story. But what if the end is actually a new beginning? Agility requires a deep understanding of your brand's core purpose and the conviction to protect it. This often means having the courage to reverse a decision that was once seen as the ultimate success. Today, we're going to talk about brand integrity, the founder's paradox of building a company to sell, and what happens when you get a second chance to reclaim the brand you created. We'll explore the delicate balance between corporate scale and entrepreneurial soul, and how a brand's purpose can be its most resilient asset. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Mark Rampolla, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Groundforce Capital. About Mark Rampolla Mark Rampolla is a visionary entrepreneur and the founder of ZICO Coconut Water, a brand that helped create the now $8 billion global coconut water category. After growing ZICO into one of the fastest-growing beverages worldwide, Mark sold the company to Coca Cola in 2013. He then transitioned into investing, co-founding PowerPlant Partners, where he played a key role in the plant-based food movement, including the success of Beyond Meat. In 2020, Mark made a bold move by repurchasing ZICO from Coca Cola with a group of investors, including Jesse Itzler and tennis star Naomi Osaka. Now, through GroundForce Capital, Mark manages $500 million in assets, focusing on health, wellness, and sustainability investments. His journey reflects a deep commitment to innovation and positive change in the consumer goods industry.

Prebiotic cola, plant-based (and AI-inspired?) pulled chicken and protein-packed marshmallows. The hosts crack open Pepsi's new prebiotic cola and discuss whether a stevia-sweetened "functional" soda can win over classic cola fans. They also dig into Just Meat's big win at Walmart and what it says about the future of meat analogs, and why protein marshmallows might actually work in your next s'more. Show notes: 0:25: Rotten Roaches. The BevNET Bowls. Cloying & Fibrous. Who's Eating This Stuff? S'More, Please. – Jacqui explains why there is a bright red "biohazard" bag on her desk and the hosts joke about modern marketing tactics. They pivot to a preview of the upcoming NOSH Live, BevNET Live and Brewbound Live events, highlighting opportunities for founders to meet retailers, investors, and strategic partners. They sample PepsiCo's newly launched Pepsi Prebiotic – a lower-calorie, stevia-sweetened soda that comes in classic cola and cherry vanilla flavors – and opine on the minimalist white cans and whether Pepsi has clearly communicated the benefits. The hosts then discuss JUST Meat's newly launched plant-based pulled chicken, which is now available in four flavors at 3,000 Walmart stores, which sparks a debate about whether mainstream shoppers truly want meat analogs, and how clean-label concerns are shaping the category. Shifting gears, Ray highlights news that BeatBox Beverages – the colorful, party-forward, wine-based cocktail brand – is rumored to be an acquisition target by AB InBev in a deal reportedly worth around $700 million. Ray introduces Primal Sweets' protein marshmallows, which contain 25 grams of protein per bag and no sugar, and Albero D'oro cocktail cherries, before Jacqui presents Flour + Water's artisanal pasta, and Mike praises Hiyo's new pineapple coconut "social tonic."

00:00:30 – Argentina BailoutKnight blasts Trump's secret $40 billion deal with Argentina, accusing the administration of bailing out a foreign ally while U.S. farmers face bankruptcy. He calls it proof that America-first rhetoric masks globalist financial manipulation. 00:07:43 – Trump vs. American FarmersKnight tears into Trump's trade chaos — punishing Brazil, rewarding Argentina, and wrecking market stability for U.S. cattlemen. He argues that MAGA loyalty has blinded conservatives to policies destroying rural America. 00:14:17 – Farm Revolt Against TrumpCattle groups and state farm bureaus condemn Trump's plan to import Argentine beef. Knight highlights growing backlash from agricultural leaders who see the policy as a betrayal of American ranchers and economic sovereignty. 00:42:32 – Bioengineered Meat AllergiesKnight discusses shocking academic proposals to make humans allergic to meat through genetically modified ticks. Condemning it as technocratic insanity and part of the global war on natural food and human biology. 00:51:27 – Globalists' Food Takeover FailsKnight praises Florida's ban on lab-grown “tumor meat” and mocks Bill Gates's failed Beyond Meat empire. He closes with a call for food self-sufficiency, warning that centralized agriculture is the foundation of global control. 01:04:10 – Argentina's Decline & Javier MileiKnight welcomes The New American publisher Steve Bonta, who draws on his time living in Argentina to describe its cultural Europeanism, intellectual roots, and long fall from prosperity into “a century of socialism.” He profiles President Milei as a libertarian reformer trying to reverse Peronist collectivism but warns that populist cults of personality—whether Perón or Trump—lead nations into tyranny. 01:13:00 – FDR, Trump & the Cult of PowerBonta and Knight connect Juan Perón's legacy to FDR's New Deal authoritarianism, arguing that both centralized government control through charisma. Knight warns that Trump has become another “fourth-turning” accelerationist—using chaos to remake America—while setting dangerous precedents that mirror 20th-century strongmen. 01:25:18 – Fiat Money Collapse & Gold ResurgenceBonta explains the Federal Reserve's unique power to export inflation and weaponize the dollar. Both note that central banks worldwide are hoarding gold, signaling the end of fiat illusions. Knight calls the modern system “the magic-money tree,” while Bonta insists only gold and silver reveal the true decline of Western purchasing power. 01:43:37 – UN Global Tax Agenda & Trump's ReversalBonta details the UN's plan for a global shipping tax—its first independent revenue stream toward world government—and credits Trump for blocking it. They trace how globalists use trade blocs to merge economies into political unions, warning the scheme mirrors the EU's path from “free trade” to supranational control. 01:52:27 – De-Dollarization & End of U.S. DominanceKnight and Bonta close by exposing the Argentina bailout and dollar decay. They link Washington's currency manipulations to the global flight toward gold and BRICS, predicting hyperinflation and the fall of dollar supremacy. Knight ends by praising The New American for warning decades ago about federalized, militarized policing and the coming authoritarian backlash. 02:15:47 – Global Silver Shortage & India PanicKnight reports that India's largest silver refinery has run out of supply for the first time ever amid massive Diwali-season buying. He highlights global ripple effects—London vaults empty, traders in chaos, and paper silver diverging from physical metal—framing it as evidence of Western financial decay and manipulation. 02:30:03 – India's Poisoned Pharma EmpireKnight exposes India's pharmaceutical industry as a “toxic mirror of Pfizer,” citing deadly cough syrups and widespread fraud. He argues the FDA knowingly enables foreign contamination through deregulation and political protection, making the U.S. complicit in poisoning its own citizens under the guise of global trade efficiency. 02:44:15 – FDA & Indian Corruption MergeExpanding on ProPublica's findings, Knight details how Indian plants with metal shavings and contaminated drugs still ship to U.S. pharmacies. He claims the FDA's fear of shortages drives its silence, likening the agency to a captured institution prioritizing profit and geopolitical deals over American safety. 02:56:48 – Trump's War on Thomas MassieKnight ends the episode with sharp criticism of Trump's attacks on Congressman Thomas Massie, funded by pro-Israel billionaires like Miriam Adelson. He contrasts Massey's anti-war, anti-bailout record with Trump's hypocrisy—supporting Lindsey Graham and globalist donors—branding Trump “the real RINO” and warning conservatives not to worship false America First idols.
