CHAPTER V
It’s OK! You can love the planet AND meat
We all love Earth. And we all want to try and protect it. But grilling up some tasty burgers shouldn’t be the end of the world. AND IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE! In the past few years humans have learned how to make really (really really really) really good meat out of plants. And it’s getting better every day. Cows aren’t getting better anytime soon (ever).
Not only is meat from plants absolutely delicious, it’s one of the most impactful ways you can help protect the planet!
NEWS FLASH Cows aren't the only way to make meat!
They aren’t even the best way. When it comes to making food, cows are about as efficient as hopping on a scooter for a cross country roadtrip.
They take up tons of space (literally). They take forever to grow. And they’re wildly inefficient (we feed them 10x the calories they produce.)
A TASTY SOLUTION
That’s why we made Impossible™ Burger - it’s the mouthwatering meat you (and your parents) love, except made from plants. Which means its way less polluting, less resource intensive and causes no deforestation.
And it’s tastyyyyyyy.

HIT ‘EM IN THE TASTEBUDS
We made meat from plants so delicious that people won’t even miss meat from cows. But tasting is believing! So one of the best ways to get your parents on board is by convincing their taste buds! (Plus imagine how much better this conversation would be with food.)
