It
has been quite a month for plant-based news. On May 2, Beyond Meat
became the first plant-based company to be listed on the Nasdeq with an
historic IPO of a 163% gain, the largest since 2008. Only weeks
earlier, I interviewed (for a second time) Beyond Meat CEO Ethan Brown
for NPR's KCRW.
You can listen to the full KCRW interview here in which Ethan takes me through the Beyond Meat factory. For my first interview with Ethan Brown on my Awesome Vegans Podcast in which we grilled sausages together in my kitchen (upper left image), click here.
