Before the pandemic, the Impossible Burger was available in fewer than 150 grocery stores. Impossible Foods’ retail growth comes particularly from Americans trying Impossible Burger for the first time; the percentage of first-time customers has doubled each month since April. In the past 6 months, Impossible Burger sales have increased 77-fold and are now available at 11,000 retail locations in all 50 states, including Kroger, Trader Joe’s, and Walmart. Starting this month, Impossible Burger is rolling out at nearly 1,500 Target stores nationwide.

And for those out there like me who are loosing or have lost hair, we have plant based shampoos. My car is not vegan, it has leather seats and drinks fossil fuel.

This thread reminds me of when I was a kid my dad used to tell us he drank grizzly bear milk straight from the source. He would show us a fearsome scar on his arm from a compound fracture and say it came from fighting the bear. We were in awe.

Yeah, I saw that on the news, Rick, alongside . . . Scientists have used stem cells to create structures that resemble human embryos in the lab, in a first that has prompted calls for stricter regulation in the rapidly advancing field.
The labs used different techniques to encourage human embryonic stem cells, which can become any type of cell, to self-assemble into a structure that resembles an embryo—without needing sperm, an egg or fertilization.

And now we know what came first, the chicken or the child.

I saw the chicken story. Something tells me it will be far more popular than the questionable faux beef products. The ones I've had weren't very good or convincing.
