Podcasts about Beyond Meat

Wobbly arms and shaky legs—could it be FND? Women who start hormones in the 50s have 23% lower dementia risk; How to prep for cataract surgery; Plant-based meat alternatives may deliver harmful mycotoxins; Keto diets outperform low-fat and Mediterranean diets for liver health, blood sugar; NY Times highlights magnesium for sleep; Even a single bout of antibiotics produces long-term harm to microbiome.

Beyond Meat is going through another major transformation and this time, they're going way beyond meat.The company is launching its new PhytoSphere platform, featuring protein powders, savory jerky bars, Veggie burgers, beverages and other products built around the idea of stacking plant nutrients and entering “thrive mode.”But is this actually the future of plant-based food… or has Beyond Meat completely lost sight of what made the company important in the first place?Send us Fan Mail

40 Zutaten im veganen Burger, nur eine im Steak – damit scheint eigentlich klar, was gesünder ist. Oder? In dieser Folge nehmen wir vegane Fleischersatz- und Convenience-Produkte wissenschaftlich unter die Lupe. Wir sprechen darüber, warum die NOVA-Klassifikation Beyond Burger und Cola in dieselbe Kategorie einordnet und was tatsächlich passiert, wenn Fleisch durch Produkte von Beyond Meat, Quorn und Co. ersetzt wird. Was zeigen die Studien zu LDL-Cholesterin, TMAO, Blutzucker und Entzündungsmarkern? Können solche Produkte trotz ihres Verarbeitungsgrades den Muskelaufbau genauso gut unterstützen wie tierische Lebensmittel? Und woran erkennt man im Supermarkt einen geeigneten Fleischersatz? Außerdem geben wir euch konkrete Kriterien zu Proteingehalt, Proteindichte, Kalorien, Ballaststoffen, Proteinquelle und Salzgehalt an die Hand. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dominiks Buch zur pflanzenbasierten Sporternährung im UTB-Verlag: https://www.utb.de/doi/book/10.36198/9783838560328 Dominiks Gesundheitscommunity: www.gsundes-hannover.de Dominiks Online-Knie-Kurs: https://gsundes-hannover.de/knieschmerzen/ Dominiks Online-Rücken-Kurs: https://copecart.com/products/34bd5abb/checkout Marcs veganes Online-Fitness-Coaching: https://vegainer-academy.com/ Marcs Online-Kurs: https://www.copecart.com/products/a50f88f2/checkout ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Werbung: Dieser Podcast wird unterstützt von der Firma Watson Nutrition.

Read the full transcript here. Why is producing meat so inefficient? How does animal agriculture contribute to hunger and malnutrition? How large are the environmental costs of meat production? How does industrial animal agriculture increase the risk of antibiotic resistance and future pandemics? Would organic or free-range farming solve these problems? What are the biggest sources of suffering for animals on factory farms? Why do people who oppose animal cruelty continue to buy factory-farmed meat? Why does meat consumption keep rising around the world despite decades of advocacy encouraging people to eat less of it? What exactly are plant-based and cultivated meat, and how are they made? Could cultivated meat eventually become a one-to-one replacement for conventional meat? What scientific and engineering problems still need to be solved? Why did plant-based meat attract so much excitement before its growth began to stall? What did companies like Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat get right, and what challenges remain? Why has cultivated-meat research developed differently from plant-based-meat research? Could government funding accelerate alternative meat in the same way public investment helped technologies like renewable energy, electric vehicles, penicillin, and mRNA? And what would it take for alternative meat to finally reach price and taste parity with conventional meat? Bruce Friedrich is co-founder and president of The Good Food Institute (GFI), a Y Combinator funded non-profit that promotes plant-based and cultivated meat. He is also a co-founder of the alternative protein venture capital firm New Crop Capital.

Beyond Meat was once one of the biggest names in the plant-based movement—but is the company now moving away from the very vegan customers who helped build the brand?In this episode, I dive into Beyond Meat's new collaboration with Milk Bar, where Beyond products are being used alongside real eggs and dairy cheese. Is this a smart attempt to reach the massive flexitarian market, or does it undermine the ethical and environmental identity Beyond Meat built its brand around?I also talk about Beyond's struggles as a publicly traded company, the shrinking shelf space for vegan products, and why I think vegans need to be careful about putting too much faith in giant corporations.Then we get into a major recall involving nearly 30,000 pounds of imported Argentine beef—and why stories like this make me ask a simple question: why are we so dependent on animal products in the first place?I also share my approach to making my own vegan “meat,” including simple ground-beef alternatives made from tofu and walnuts.Are companies like Beyond Meat allies of the vegan movement or are they simply businesses trying to survive?Send us Fan Mail

In deze aflevering bespreken we de wereld van plantaardige burgers, met een focus op Beyond Meat. We delen onze ervaringen, recepten en tips voor het bereiden van de Beyond Burger Jalapeño en Korean BBQ. Deze episode is een gesponsorde aflevering.

Gemeinsam mit Philipp Wolf reite ich quer durch die Lebensmittel- und Getränkewelt. Wir besprechen welche Themen uns diesen Monat geprägt haben und geben unsere Meinung dazu Preis. Es erwarten euch lange Episoden mit viel Content für lange Auto- oder Bahnfahrten, die Begleitung beim Sport oder Spazieren. In unserer monatlichen Folge erfährst was die Branche bewegt: Wir sprechen über die Lebensmittelindustrie, E-Commerce, Quick Delivery, Gemeinschaftsverpflegung, Food-Start-ups, Innovationen, Digitalisierung/KI/Web3, Agrar, Investitionen/Insolvenzen/Exits aus der Branche.

Beyond Meat was once the biggest name in plant-based meat. Its stock once traded for nearly $240 a share. Now it's trading around 41 cents, and the company is taking the dramatic step of a 1-for-30 reverse stock split to avoid being delisted from Nasdaq.  So what happened?In this episode, I take a look at Beyond Meat's financial problems, its attempt to reinvent itself as a broader protein company, and what the company's current situation says about the plant-based meat industry.But this isn't just about Beyond.We also talk about the bigger question: Do vegans really need companies like Beyond Meat to succeed? I love convenience, but when plant-based products become expensive, heavily processed, and increasingly disconnected from what consumers actually want, maybe it's time to rethink the model.We get into homemade vegan meat, black bean burgers, protein alternatives, the economics of convenience, and whether Beyond Meat can actually find a way back.Is Beyond Meat the victim of a changing market—or did the company simply lose its way?And perhaps the bigger question:What does the future of plant-based meat actually look like?Send us Fan Mail

Plant-based burgers have been criticised for years. But what does the scientific evidence actually say? In this episode, we examine the research comparing Beyond Meat and other plant-based burgers with conventional beef, including findings from the SWAP-MEAT trial and more recent meta-analyses. We discuss cholesterol, TMAO, body weight, sodium, ultra-processed foods, and why many experts believe the public conversation has become oversimplified. Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

In this episode of The State of Sustainability, Saif explores the rise, decline, and future opportunities of plant-based proteins, focusing on the technological innovations, branding challenges, and market dynamics. He shares insights from the industry's early boom with Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods to the recent slowdown, along with predictions on where the space might go next.Saif covers the initial hype around plant-based meat and why the sector captured so much attention in 2019 and 2020. He also outlines the core obstacles that slowed momentum, including taste, texture, price, and the difficulty of competing with the deeply established emotional pull of meat brands.Saif shares his insights into where the category may still win, especially in emerging markets, B2B channels, and ingredient-level innovation. His long-term view is that plant-based protein is not a dead end, but a space that may succeed through sharper targeting, better economics, and new technologies like fermentation and tissue culture.Let Saif know what you think by emailing Saif@altruistiq.com.To discover how leading organisations are improving sustainability reporting and carbon management, visit Altruistiq.com.Join us at the State of Sustainability Summit: LondonOn 14 October, Altruistiq is bringing together senior sustainability, procurement and supply chain leaders from leading consumer goods companies for a day of practical discussions on the challenges shaping the future of the industry.

Beyond Meat gehypt, dann fast pleite – während die "langweiligen" Lebensmittelkonzerne von damals heute noch profitabel am Markt sind. In dieser Folge spricht Marco über den Lindy-Effekt und warum Narrative oft mehr über die Zukunft eines Assets aussagen als die aktuelle Bewertung. Es geht um Boom-and-Bust-Zyklen bei Internetunternehmen, Kryptowährungen, Elektroautos und Co. – und warum es oft klüger ist, den ersten Hype-Zyklus komplett auszulassen, statt auf den vermeintlichen nächsten Amazon zu setzen.

Today on The Gist, we revisit Mike Pesca's classic crusade against the indisputable abomination of paper straws and the dubious logic surrounding alternative drinking apparatuses. Then, writer and psychologist Maria Konnikova joins Mike for a classic edition of "Is That Bullshit?" to dissect whether plant-based alternatives like Impossible Burgers and Beyond Meat are actually any healthier for you than real beef.

This week on Eat Drink Smoke, Tony and Fingers review the Stoic Equanimity Justice, a hefty 6x52 cigar with an Ecuadorian Corojo wrapper, Dominican Criollo 98 binder, and a flavor profile that brings spice, cedar, earth, richness, and a truly ridiculous amount of heft. It is the kind of cigar that makes you wonder whether you should smoke it or use it to break out of a locked car. The drink this week is Jacob's Pardon Small Batch American Whiskey Batch #2, coming in at 109.3 proof. Tony and Fingers find vanilla, brown sugar, oak, butterscotch, a little heat, and enough flavor to make it a serious contender for the year-end list. Also on the show: Beyond Meat wants to become a protein drink company. Is that a smart pivot, or should they lean into brisket-flavored beverages and shock the world? Tony and Fingers talk summer foods, ribs, grilling, watermelon feta orzo salad, frozen grapes, and why kale should maybe just go directly into the trash. Plus, bourbon layoffs continue as the industry faces a serious slowdown. Is it tariffs, changing drinking habits, GLP-1 drugs, oversupply, or all of the above? The guys break it down. And in News of the Week: the 2027 Masters ticket lottery is open, the White House Correspondents Dinner has been rescheduled, and the FCC says you may want to turn off Bluetooth when you are not using it. Light up, pour a drink, and enjoy another episode of Eat Drink Smoke. Find everything at EatDrinkSmokeShow.com.

Everybody loves the idea of catching the next monster IPO early.That's the dream, right?You buy SpaceX. OpenAI. Palantir. Robinhood. Whatever Wall Street is hyping this week… and suddenly you're sitting on life changing money while everyone else is still “waiting for confirmation.”But here's the part nobody talks about…What if the people selling the IPO already know it's overpriced?This breakdown gets WILD fast. The conversation dives into how big IPOs really work behind the scenes, why index funds may be forced to buy overpriced shares, and how hype alone can send stocks exploding higher before reality punches everybody in the face.And honestly? Some of these charts are brutal.Robinhood pumped over 100%… then got destroyed. Beyond Meat looked unstoppable… until it collapsed. Same thing with Peloton, SoFi, and a long list of “this changes everything” stocks investors were convinced could only go up.✅ Why IPO hype traps so many investors✅ How index funds can accidentally buy the top✅ The hidden danger behind low float IPOs✅ Why Wall Street LOVES hype cycles✅ What this could mean for future SpaceX and OpenAI IPOsIf you've ever chased momentum, bought into hype, or wondered how the market really works once the cameras stop rolling… this one's worth watching all the way through.Subscribe to OVTLYR for disciplined trading strategies that actually make sense.

Celebrity vegans are cashing checks, plant-based giants are pivoting hard, and veganism is somehow becoming political theater. In this episode, Jason reacts to Lizzo's Chili's rib ad, Beyond Meat's new protein drink strategy, and the growing culture war around plant-based eating.Send us Fan Mail

What if you could get access to a Masters or PhD level BCBA for free, within 24 hours, from your phone? That is exactly what Amol Deshpande built after spending years fighting a broken system just to get his own son diagnosed and into care. Amol is the founder and CEO of Frontera, a Silicon Valley tech entrepreneur who previously founded Farmers Business Network, growing it into a nearly four billion dollar company, and served as a general partner at Kleiner Perkins Caufield and Byers. He pivoted his entire career after his son was diagnosed with autism at age two. In this episode, he shares what the journey has looked like over the past 12 years, why he believes the clinical community is failing parents at the moment of diagnosis, and why his son is now 14, badgering him to watch South Park, spending too much money at Shake Shack, and heading to a Knicks game. This is a conversation about hope, access, and what happens when a parent decides to do something about the system instead of just surviving it.   What you will hear in this episode: •      Why even a Silicon Valley entrepreneur with every advantage struggled to get his son diagnosed •      How his son went from a serious autism diagnosis at age two to thriving as a teenager •      Why the clinical community gets the moment of diagnosis completely wrong •      Why a diagnosis label is a baseline, not a prophecy •      How Frontera gives parents free access to expert BCBA support within 24 hours •      Why community is one of the most underrated tools in the autism parenting toolkit •      Rob shares his own sons' outcomes including what they were told would never happen   ABOUT THE GUEST Amol Deshpande is a seasoned entrepreneur and parent of a child with autism. His personal experience navigating a fragmented and inefficient care system inspired the creation of Frontera, a suite of tools that harnesses technology to expand access to high-quality behavioral healthcare for families everywhere. Amol also invests in mission-oriented ventures through Divergent Investments, his family office. Before Frontera he founded and built Farmers Business Network into a nearly four billion dollar company with 1,000 employees from scratch.

Beyond Meat Faces NASDAQ Delisting Beyond Meat, the once leading light of the plant-based protein business world, is in danger of being delisted from the NASDAQ stock exchange because its stock price has remained under $1.00 for more than 30 days. The company, which is in the process of removing the word “meat” from its brand moniker, received a letter of warning from NASDAQ on March 4. It has 180 calendar days — actually until August 31 — to remedy the situation or face delisting. Its closing bid price must remain at $1.00 or higher for 10 days in order to be in compliance. Beyond Meat went public in 2019 and at one point was valued at $14 billion. Its peak stock price was $234.90 in July 2019.and described the legislation as reckless election year pandering that threatens to damage a crucial industry at the center of every American Meal.   References:  https://meatingplace.com/beyond-meat-threatened-with-nasdaq-delisting/?utm_source=omeda&utm_medium=email&utm_cid=1103020073&utm_campaign=MTGMCD260315020&utm_date=20260316-0844 Blood Disease Spreading Across Missouri The Asian Long-Horned Tick has been spreading a type of infectious anemia across the eastern United States by latching onto cattle.  Missouri getting hit hard.   The disease attacks the animal's red blood cells, causing severe anemia in cattle.   Side effects that have been reported are jaundice, weakness and pale mucous membranes.   While some producers across Northwest Missouri have not experienced this disease in their cattle, they are taking the necessary precautions to avoid the disease.   Reports have said the disease has been found in 60 counties in Missouri.   REFERENCE: https://www.kq2.com/news/2026/03/13/blood-disease-spreading-across-cattle-in-missouri/ Fake News In Texas: Officials Say Deadly Virus Is Not Spreading In Feedlot Cattle  Contrary to rumors spreading in Texas this week, agriculture officials are calling reports of a fast-spreading cattle feedlot virus "fake news." The rumors of a "yield-killer" feedlot virus with a climbing mortality rate in the Texas Panhandle began to spread in online publications and on social media over the weekend. One such report from agroinformacion.com said the news was drawing "immediate panic" from the beef industry, projecting a "brutal" hit to the market. Several agricultural sources in the state have since stepped in to ease the concerns, saying health officials have confirmed there is no such disease present in the state.    Reference: https://www.fox4news.com/news/fake-news-texas-officials-say-deadly-cow-virus-is-not-spreading-panhandle   Upcoming Feeder Cattle, Bull & Cow Sales On RanchChannel.Com Lots of feeder cattle, steers & heifers, bulls, and cow sales coming up on the RanchChannel.Com sale calendar.  Check out the full line up HERE.

Strap in for a high-octane episode of The Option Block as the All-Star panel breaks down a "day trader's paradise." Host Mark Longo is joined by "Uncle Mike" Tosaw (St. Charles Wealth Management) and "The Flowmaster" Henry Schwartz (Cboe Global Markets) to navigate a market defined by red screens, spiking crude oil, and the return of prediction markets. In this episode, we dive into: The Trading Block: A look at the "wild and wooly" week in the markets, from the S&P 500 hovering at 6,700 to VIX hitting 35. The Prediction Game: Why binary event contracts on XSP are the "new hotness" and how Cboe is simplifying the options landscape for new traders. The Odd Block: Unusual activity in Mosaic (MOS), Barclays (BCS), and a massive 50% jump in Lightwave Logic (LWLG). Mail Block: The panel answers your questions on the Iran conflict's market impact and whether VIX 70 calls are a genius hedge or "WTF" territory. Around the Block: Predictions for the week ahead, including earnings from Adobe and Beyond Meat, and why "the only source of unbiased news is the S&P 500 chart."

"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.

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.

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.

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?

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!

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 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!

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.
