本期内容:

A California startup is trying to persuade consumers to bite into burger patties that don't contain any meat. Impossible Foods, wants to bring fake meat to the masses. Its signature product, the Impossible Burger, is made with ingredients including wheat, potatoes and coconut oil. Founded in 2011, the startup now supplies meatless products to more than 1,500 restaurants in the United States. " For me, the primary motivation was the huge environmental impact of meat-eating, " its founder Dr. Past Brown said. "We want to save this wonderful planet for future generations, and it really is at critical risk due to -- believe it or not -- our use of animal and food production technologies."
