Shout out to my partner Ray Lane who was smart enough to invest in Beyond Meat when it was just Ethan and a few people in a test kitchen.

https://t.co/TREUrVhyZL ...excited to share that @BeyondMeat, a @SandHillAngels portfolio company had a great IPO. This is good news for the alternative protein category - for mature players like @ImpossibleFoods and @MemphisMeats, but also great for early players...

This is a very exciting company (Lux is not investor but wish we had) and believe it is virtuous with great future—reducing not just human but animal SUFFERING.

As many of you know, I'm still a real meat guy. However, I found this alt-meat piece by @conorsen quite interesting. And its sole footnote is quietly hotter than a Big Green Egg. ?https://t.co/HRKrB9Jxe0
