The BevNET Podcast team quizzed Seth Goldman on a number of other topics, including the ongoing battle over GMO labeling and its impact on the organic movement, as well as the long-term future for Honest within the Coke system.
Ah, to be in the Whole Foods Pentagon City. that's where super-entrepreneur Seth Goldman -- co-founder of Honest Tea and Current Chairman of Beyond Meat -- has been trotting out products like Honest Sport and the Beyond Burger for consumers to test out.
BevNET's podcast studio last week became a mini-Pentagon City itself, with Goldman stopping by to let the team taste the new products.
Goldman considers the Beyond Burger in particular as a transformational enterprise -- the opportunity to create a viable branded plant protein at the meat counter.
"It's a huge opportunity," says the longtime vegetarian. "The veggie burger is an evolutionary dead end. I'll never eat a veggie burger again."
It wasn't just a feast, though. The BevNET Podcast team quizzed Goldman on a number of other topics, including the ongoing battle over GMO labeling and its impact on the organic movement, as well as the long-term future for Honest within the Coke system. Ever the good -- and well-informed -- sport, Goldman fit right in for an enjoyable and interesting time, which you can hear via the podcast above.
