The Awesome Burger is Nestlé's answer to the plant-based meat crazeStory by Danielle Wiener-Bronner, CNN BusinessUpdated 1230 GMT September 24, 2019If you turn off Highway 1 at just the right spot in Moss Landing, California, past fruit stands, roadside cafes and artichoke farms, you may catch a sudden whiff of bacon.

Home of the Salinas Valley, the so-called"salad bowl of the world," it's one of the most productive agricultural areas on the planet, growing more than 150 crops including lettuce — lots of lettuce. It's been Sweet Earth's home for years, well before Nestlé acquired the then 350-person company in 2017.
