Episode #233: Beyond Meat Bankrupt, AI Grocery Pricing, and The End of Animal Ag?

In this episode, Farmer Joel Salatin and Dr. Sina McCullough dissect a shifting food landscape where legislative bans and corporate pivots collide. They explore Oregon’s IP28, a radical ballot measure that could effectively end animal agriculture, and contrast it with the 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines that have moved toward prioritizing whole animal proteins.

The duo also breaks down Beyond Meat’s move into carbonated drinks following massive losses, the emergence of AI-driven "personalized" grocery pricing, and the marketing behind new “GLP-1 friendly” food labels. It’s a deep dive into the forces currently reshaping food sovereignty and the future of the American plate.

We want to hear from you!  This week’s community question is:
