The Rise of Vegans
A-listers like Natalie Portman and Beyonce are going vegan and endorsing plant based diets along with many other celebrities that promote their diets on social media. So, it’s no wonder the meatless products from Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods have exploded. Beyond Meat has even made big deals with Carl’s Jr., Dunkin, Del Taco and TGI Friday’s, and Impossible Foods products are now in about 10,000 restaurants — including White Castle, Red Robin and Burger King. We discuss some of the ingredients that make meat eaters enjoy eating a meat-free burger, if being a vegan really can help the environment, some of our favorite vegan foods/restaurants and more! **GROSS ANATOMY PODCAST IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE, DIAGNOSIS, OR TREATMENT.
