Ethan Brown returns to Eat For The Planet eight years after his first appearance for a raw and timely conversation about what it means to lead Beyond Meat through public scrutiny, shifting consumer narratives, and a changing food landscape. We talk about the limits of frictionless adoption, the company’s strategic reset, and why storytelling is now central to Beyond’s mission. Ethan shares what he’s learned from adversity, how he draws strength from history, and why he still believes plant-based meat can transform the plate—and the planet. Subscribe to The Main Dish, where I make sense of what we eat, why it matters, and how the systems behind our food are changing—or not.
