I saw this company on LinkedIn yesterday and they were intriguing enough to take a longer look at. A high percentage of the patty is wheat-based and potato-based. I could not verify that they were using organic wheat or organic potatoes in their ingredients and will be inquiring about this on LinkedIn. While the shift from animal-based products to plant-based products drastically reduces Carbon Footprint and Global Impact, if the end result from a health perspective is trading antibiotics & growth hormones for the highly-intensive herbicides and pesticides used in large-scale non-organic wheat and potato production then the consumer has gained little IMHO. Not only do some of the wheat farmers here in Idaho, Washington, and Eastern Oregon still use wheat seeds coated in glyphosate and then apply glyphosate again shortly after emergence to control weeds on this GMO crop, they have recently began applying glyphosate at the end of the lifecycle of the wheat crop to ensure that all of the wheat 'dies and dries' at a similar rate and at a predicted time for harvesting. I am hopeful that Tesla can encourage the use of fully Organic products in any endeavor they chose to undertake in this arena. Solar power and EV's are good for the health of people & the planet. And so is a clean, healthy organic food source.
On a good note.....malt barley that has been sprayed with pre-harvest glyphosate is supposedly not an acceptable product for beer production.
