A World Beyond Meat
Fake meat. Clean meat. Synthetic meat. Meat-less meat. Lab-based meat. Whichever way you slice them, the new generation of plant-based meat alternatives is winning over foodies the world over. In this edition, we look at why more and more of us are turning to cruelty-free, sustainable options: they’re good for our health, great for the planet, and even better for the animals.
“The plant-based protein industry needs to be as big as the animal-based industry is today by 2050. This just has to happen, because there is no more viable land left on the planet,” says Nick Hazell, CEO of v2foods.
More highlights in this edition:
- Will Smith talks tennis, fatherhood and being inspired by Venus and Serena Williams while filming biopic King Richard.
