“The more I looked into it, the more broken the pet food industry was. It accounts for 25-30% of meat consumed in the U.S...it just makes no sense because we can make protein out of yeast, out of fungi, out of plants...and so I’m like, somebody needs to start this company.” -Ryan Bethencourt, Co-founder and CEO of Wild Earth.
