Vegan Food: Would You Try a 'Steak' Made of Plants?

Описание: The plant-based food industry is booming. The U.S retail market for plant-based foods is worth almost $4.5 billion, according to the Good Food Institute. Bloomberg QuickTake's Rosalie e’Silva speaks with David Yeung, the Hong Kong-based entrepreneur who started a global movement to cut meat consumption, and tests out some vegan products.

Yeung says millennials are driving the plant-based movement. “A huge part of this change in fact is coming from millennials. They are much more informed about not just food, but everything.”

And with that growth comes new and innovative products.

Yeung says, “The industry has really changed a lot, even as recent as the last 3 years. We’re seeing so many new products.”

According to Yeung, plant-based meat, cheese, yogurt and snacks are some of the best-sellers.

“Shifting from meats to plant-based, you are indeed making a big impact on the planet. Our goal is to that anyone who comes in can find great food, delicious and healthy food and it's for everyone.”

He adds, ” Ultimately we want to broaden the base of people consuming plant-based foods.
Everyone, every day is an opportunity to make a difference.”
