Good piece from Phil Howard on how the meat oligopolies are quietly buying up the startups meant to disrupt/replace them: plant-based and cellular protein companies. civileats.com/2021/09/22/op-…

Don't get me started.on factory farming. It's destroying our mental and emotional well-being. You are what you eat. But we have been conditioned to think this is "not how it works." I found out it is "how it works" when it happened to me.

Yes, that's the model. When threatened by newer upstart companies that have better product just buy them. They have old money, it's a way of exhibiting control. Don't sell!

I thought we had a Justice Department ... Don't we? ... and I thought we had anti-trust laws ... Don't we?

TX for sending @mariannewilliamson; I didn't see it! On the one hand these big meat companies see the future (PLANT PROTEIN!), on the other hand they have too much control
