Impossible Foods has sped up its expansion into both brick-and-mortar Kroger stores and online retail to meet surging demand for fresh meat alternatives.

In the wake of meatpacking plant closures across the country, fast-food chains, big-box retailers such as Costco and grocery stores like Kroger have started to limit the amount of meat products customers can purchase at one time. But as customers stroll down the meat aisle, they could soon see an influx of alternatives.

A sign at a Kroger store in Atlanta limits shoppers to three packages of ground beef, May 5, 2020. Kroger is limiting meat purchases, like a number of other grocery retailers, due to supply concerns amid the COVID-19 pandemic.that sales of fresh meat alternatives were up 224% for the week ending April 25, while fresh meat sales jumped 50% in the same period.

soledadobrien Wonder how many shares Trump family and cronies bought up

Good. This in and of itself will have a HUGE impact on our environment and economy. I’m a meat eater and I really like impossible meats and could easily go 100%.

soledadobrien Please don’t eat the plant based meat. Leave it for the vegetarians.

I remember reading that there is a lot of estrogen in the Impossible foods and eating a lot of it will give men boobs. Was that real?

Contact your local 4H or FFA. Project animals were already started before the lockdown. Most places have online auctions coming up. These kids have invested countless hours and $$$ into their project animals

greta Not a substitute

Impossible foods is trying to make up for an imaginary synthetic hormone shortage

soledadobrien Great! Much healthier. Hopefully this will help with the American obesity problem.

andrewpfister Pretty excited. These are my favorite meat alternatives.

soledadobrien It’s not fresh; it’s not meat. Discuss.

greta If you are reading this. Please connect with your local farmers and ranchers local butchers or small processing plants. There is no shortage

Lol, ok, who in your company is invested in the brand or the side dish ingredients.

the stores are having a hard time selling fake meat people want the real stuff, I shop and have seen less fake meat and they said people are not interested, This lie will get you no where

IceAgeFarmer , I'm sure you've seen this....

greta The soy in them will give you man boobs😂

You’ll be eating maggots & crickets. It’s trendy. You’re gonna love it.

Americans are so obsessed with meat.

No thanks ✋

Here’s an idea- the liberals can go eat this crap and everybody else can eat meat.

Based on lab studies done on rats & farm-animals, there will be a rise in GASTROINTESTINAL PROBLEMS and BIRTH DEFECTS, including ANENCEPHALY, if people eat too much GM-SOY stuff in all these tofu/tempeh/soy based foods. Make sure the meat alternatives are NON-GMO SOY.

these are disgusting 100% chemical waste shaped into sausage

Guess that green new deal is in the works.

It isnt as good as real meat.

I’d rather eat crickets.
