Plant-based burgers are becoming more and more popular among the American people, as companies like Beyond Meat are getting increasingly better at producing vegan alternatives that look, taste, and even “bleed” like the real thing. Since their debut at Whole Foods in May 2016, Beyond Burger products have made their way into tens of thousands of supermarkets, restaurants, hotels, and even sports stadiums. The success of such food producers represents a promising outlook towards a more sustainable future for today’s highly polluting meat industry.
