Summary

Episode 2620: Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss news items that address the need for battling Big Food companies, how to get moving, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/03/battling-big-food-companies-episode-2620 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - Battling Big Food Companies Chris has three new items for Vinnie. Food Expo West (10:00) Impossible, the vegan “meat” brand, is introducing “steak bites.” People have an impression that “plant-based” is healthier. Vinnie relays a story of getting inspired to get outside. (20:20) You can get outdoors or prepare a good meal with just a little planning and foresight. (31:00) They share some ideas and examples. There is a system of food classification called NOVA Classification. (38:00) It ranks the levels of different processed foods. They discuss what companies financially support this system and the apparent motivation behind the opposition to being classified; consequently, it’s an example of “prisoners running the asylum.” An 18-year-old is taking on Big Food in a lawsuit. (48:00) His claim emphasized how ultra-processed foods are marketed to kids similar to cigarette marketing in the 1960s and 1970s. He’s been diagnosed with NAFLD and type 2 diabetes at age 16. Chris mentions some of the arguments presented by Big Food, on a website called foodprocessingfacts.org (53:00) Chris reads from a list of favorite vegan snacks, according to VegNews—almost all of them are chemical shitstorms. (57:45) You need to pay attention to what you put in your body. (1:03:00) The struggle is real: processed foods are all around us and marketed as quick, easy, and palatable.
