Episode 482: Nick Halla

This week, Mariann interviews Nick Halla, the Senior Vice President for International at Impossible Foods. As we’re sure you’ve heard, the company made a huge announcement this week that Burger King would be serving the Impossible Burger! You’re not going to want to miss this great and wide-ranging interview about the mission of Impossible, their national and international launch, and even some of the controversy surrounding animal testing and the Impossible Burger.
In the intro to this episode, Jasmin and Mariann discuss more about the Impossible Burger’s huge announcement and the issues covered in the interview, and they each go on to recount separate interesting theater experiences they had this week. We also have a very special dedication from No Meat May. After the interview, Mariann brings us some Rising Anxieties. More info in the show notes!
