Lively chat with the Novel Meat Ladies of Aus:
Do APs 'disrupt' food systems dynamics? (Prob not, rather reinforce power disparities).
Q: are fermentation/cell-based 'meats' UPFs?
Q: what if APs are produced by community-owned coops?

Is meat reduction part of the vegan agenda? Are all types of meat production problematic? Are novel proteins the 'big' solution?
My new paper explores how the narrative of meat reduction is framed in the media. Hint? It's oversimplified + polarising!🌗But the bigger q is why?

#Plantbasedfoods are a "market trend", but products mimicking #meat can be highly processed and aimed more at leveraging the status of meat. @2serbusiness discusses what's sustainable, or not, with @UTSMarketing's Natalina Zlatevska and QUT's @Hopenjohnson bddy.me/3iWHzeN

No problems with cost when it's the industry's decision to promote something new on the label. Let's hope FSANZ don't give in!
