Beyond Meat took a first quarter loss. The company blamed it on the pandemic.

We will see if this is a trend going forward. Perhaps the buying public isnt all that high on plant based burgers. Personally I do eat these ones and they arent bad. They do not taste like a real burger but that is okay. At this point, there is no way they are a replacement for the majority of people.

Speaking of meat, I'm super sure you will find this video interesting

It goes in depth into the economics and environmental impact of meat

Sorry sir, I must respectfully disagree.

I tried the plant based burgers and I think they taste like s--t.

Give me a flame broiled beef burger any day.

Damn, now I'm hungry and it's bedtime.

I tried them and they are not bad at all, but really not a replacement for me.

I think the pandemic might have slowed things down but I don't know if it's the only factor.

I don't know but I heard on a video I watched today that the FDA in the US was banning the sale of beef. But I didn't even realize they were restricting those smaller farmers from selling meat.

So because of that, I was expecting the demand to go up for plant-based stuff. But I don't know when that ban was lifted because they only said recently.

I wonder if Bill Gates hand is in on that.

Could be possible. I would like to know if there was a ban on selling beef because it would make prices more expensive for me.

I kind of disagree. I think it is because they have upcoming competition and the market share of the market just isn't big enough. With more choices, they need to make their own products more competitive. Besides saying they are plant based burgers, do they have anything else going for them?

I tried whichever one they sell at Burger King right before the pandemic and i must say that if I didn't know it was plant-based, aside from tasting a little bland, I would not have suspected anything amiss.

Yeah the impossible burgers is hard to tell the difference. Of course, it is hard to make the case that a Whopper is high end beef. LOL

Also with all the stuff on it, the meat isnt tasked as much.
