Plant-based bubble bursts
OPINION: Talking about plant-based food: “Chicken-free chicken” start-up Sunfed has had its valuation slashed to zero by major investor Blackbird Ventures, and its products are no longer available in supermarkets.
A group of topless PETA supporters descended on Sydney's iconic Hyde Park last week to protest the dairy industry... by flashing.
They claim that in the Australian dairy industry "mother cows are repeatedly forcibly impregnated and separated from their babies so that humans can drink their milk". This use of emotive language and deliberately comparing cows to humans is a common tactic used by these activists to excite the ignorant.
For what it's worth, the flashers stood bare-chested, with anti-dairy messages painted on their bodies and signs reading "Wean Yourself", "Dairy Is Cruel", and "Not Your Mum? Not Your Milk!"
