Paul Shapiro spent is career working to improve the wellbeing of animals through legislation, activism, awareness campaigns, and civic engagement during his 13 year tenure with the Human Society. The desire to affect positive change led him to write a book on the topic of improving our relationship with the way we cultivate, treat, and consume animals. After publishing his book he was left with a choice: talk about the problem, or get his hands dirty fixing it.
In this episode we talk with Paul about the Better Meat Co, a meat-enhancement company he co-founded which uses mycelium based additives to offset a portion of the meat required from animals while improving the overall taste, health benefits and environmental impact of the product. So, your chicken nuggets may actually be 40% mushrooms, and that make them all the more delightful.
