Synthetic Meat

     Ethan Brown, CEO of Beyond Meat, makes almost perfect meat for the world to enjoy. Brown Manufactures meat substructure made from soy, pea, and amaranth. Each serving of Brown's chicken strip, is the same amount of protein a regular chicken that you would eat. Even though it is the same amount of protein, it has zero cholesterol and trans fat. Brown says that factory chickens aren't treated like regular farm chickens would be treated. According to Brown, there is a little difference between his product and real chicken. 
     The United Nations expects global population to increase to 9.6 billion from where it is now at 7.2 billion by the year 2050. Brown says the planet must rethink how they get their meat. Brown is trying to address the issue by supplying as perfect meat as he can. Brown's company, Beyond Meat, has a refrigerator full of company-grown meats.
