Meatless Meat

[lbedord]

There are a number of meatless meat companies (Impossible Burger, Memphis Meats, etc.) working to claim their stake (pardon the pun) in the beef industry. As a producer of beef, how concerned are you about the meatless meat industry? Do you think it will have an impact on the beef industry in the next five to 10 years or is it a fad that will pass with time?

Thanks for your insight!

Retail  pricing  will be  the  focus  to  start  with,  flavor,  + ingredient's content  - - - 

Labeling  will  enter  into  the  arena , withstanding  ---

Why  burger  &   not nuggets,  something  on  the  '' Fabricated  Nuggets ''  order  maybe  OR  Veggy  Oysters  ?  ?

Not concerned about "meatless meat."  Other than items like tofu, I am barely aware of meatless meat-like protein options.  I did hear about chemically created meat a few years ago in the news.  If I remember correctly the cost of creating it was outrageous.
