McDonalds will soon release their new “McPlant Burger.” Impossible Meats will also be distributing plant-based pizza toppings, chicken alternatives, and taco fillers for the Yum Brand franchises.
The following is from CNN Business:
McDonald’s said the partnership will help them explore chicken, pork and egg alternatives and give “customers more choices when they visit McDonald’s.”
The McDonald’s deal is an expansion of a previous partnership launched last year that included the creation of the McPlant, a traditional McDonald’s style burger made with a plant-based patty. McDonald’s tested a similar sandwich using Beyond Meat in Canada in 2019.
For Yum Brands, Thursday’s agreement is an “expansion of the companies’ growing track record of collaborations” with alternative food developers, which already includes a trial of plant-based chicken for KFC and the Beyond Italian Sausage Pizza at Pizza Hut.
Financial terms for both deals were not disclosed. Plant-based meat alternatives have been popping up on fast food menus rapidly to meet customer demand, with items including the Impossible Whopper at Burger King and a breakfast sandwich made with Beyond Meat’s sausage at Dunkin’.
Thursday’s pair of deals is the latest in Beyond Meat’s series of major partnership announcements in recent weeks. In January, the trendy company teamed up with PepsiCo to develop and distribute snacks and drinks made with plant-based protein. The deal also gives Beyond Meat access to a global distribution and marketing powerhouse that will allow it to enter more categories and bring new products to market more quickly.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
[1] Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; [2] Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; [3] Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. [4] For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: [5] For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.1 Timothy 4:1-5
WinePress readers are very familiar with this exploding trend. The King James Bible is continually proven accurate once again. And notice I said the KJB. The new versions purposefully remove the word ‘meats’ and change it to say ‘foods’ or something similar.
They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth. (NIV)
They will say it is wrong to be married and wrong to eat certain foods. But God created those foods to be eaten with thanks by faithful people who know the truth. (NLT).
They will require celibacy and dietary restrictions that God doesn’t expect, for he created all foods to be received with the celebration of faith by those who fully know the truth. (TPT)
This is the wave of the future and it will continue to flourish. We have already reported that Impossible Meats (Foods) is purposefully undercutting the prices of real meat, Bill Gates continually cheerleads for vegan and lab-grown meats (which is where the utter hypocrisy comes in at as mentioned in the passage), and the World Economic Forum has made it clear that real meat will be a luxury snack.
