S9. E9: Christie Lagally: The Game Changer for Plant-based Meat
“There's a fundamental mismatch between how we make plant-based meat and the facilities that are making it. When you're using the wrong tool, when you're trying to use a spoon to cut a piece of vegetable, it just doesn't work. It's the same kind of thing for making plant-based meat.”
– Christie Lagally
Christie Lagally is the founder and CEO at Rebellyous Foods, a food manufacturing technology and production company. They make delicious plant-based chicken, but they also make production equipment.
Up until now, almost all plant-based meat has been made in animal meat production facilities, which just don't have the capability or function to make plant-based meat.
Five years ago, Christie left her job as an engineer at Boeing so she could transform everything that we know about producing plant-based meat. She’s done it and later this year, Rebellyous is launching the Mock Two, production equipment that is not only going to transform the entire plant-based meat space, but it’s also going to allow for price parity with animal meat. A game changer for the entire industry.
Please listen and share.
In gratitude,
