Something my Father-in-law found...
Impossible Foods, co-founded by Google, Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates, has taken its product, a totally fake plant based hamburger, internationally, setting its sights on countries such as Australia and New Zealand, as well as Europe and Asia. I was not aware of the ownership structure of this compnay, this is on a par with the Vaxx, but much more subtle.
For instance, the Impossible Burger is made with soy leghemoglobin (heme), a color additive produced in a genetically engineered yeast. The ingredient, used to make the burger appear to “bleed” like real meat, never underwent adequate safety testing, according to the Center for Food Safety (CFS).
Last year, CFS challenged the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) approval of soy leghemoglobin. CFS claimed that because the ingredient is “new to the human diet, and substantial quantities are added to the Impossible Burger, the FDA should have required extensive safety testing before approving its use as a color additive, as required by law.”
CFS said in its lawsuit that soy leghemoglobin is made using “genetic engineering on steroids,” a process they say has “virtually no regulatory oversight.” Animal studies commissioned by Impossible Foods found soy leghemoglobin caused inflammation or kidney disease and possible signs of anemia.
But Impossible Foods dismissed the findings as “non-adverse” or as having “no toxicological relevance.” Despite the legal challenges, a federal appeals court in May upheld the FDA’s approval of soy leghemoglobin.
The Impossible Burger is now in grocery stores and restaurants nationwide. It is also expected to hit schools K-12 after Impossible Foods secured Child Nutrition Labels, a voluntary food-crediting statement authorized by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
One may conclude that Gates, Google and Bezos are wealthy enough to be able to claim that what they promote is so useful to their customers that it does not require testing and approval. One could ponder the question whether or not the FDA, USDA, CDC, HHS are merely divisions of the Gates cabal. One might also assume that a food that lacks nutritional value, attacks the kidneys and shows signs of causing anemia would be a valuable adjunct to the Vaxx and enhance its lethality.
Do you have even the slightest shred of evidence to support that particular claim?
Hey handshake, it takes five seconds to do your own research.

Fun fact: Chipotle and Whole Foods won’t sell Impossible Meat products due to how overly processed all of their offerings are.
Fun Fact 2: Whole Foods was bought by Amazon in 2017. So the CEO of Whole Foods - whose boss is Jeff Bezos “technically” (yes Bezos is stepping down as CEO of Amazon) must have a death wish because he’s on record talking bad about Impossible Burgers.

They received funding from does not mean they were founded by. It's misleading to say they were cofounded by Google/Gates/Bezos
Yes, cofounded is misleading. However, depending on the funding structure negotiated, they may have a large say in how things are handled operational at Impossible. I haven’t looked that far into it, but if they put their funding in during any of the VC stages, they technically did help found the company through Angel investment/venture capital offers.
Regardless, you could’ve searched it yourself and said, “Hey! There’s nothing to indicate they cofounded the company from the beginning. Perhaps we should edit this so it isn’t misleading?”
Don’t fall into the trap of relying on others to do your research. Unless, of course, you’re here in bad faith. Research and bad faith don’t go well together.
"if if they may possibly maybe"
My point is the statement that they were cofounded by Google/Bezos/Gates is wrong, 100%. Whether or not you can guess their pull within the company is irrelevant to the fact that the statement made to lead things off is factually incorrect.
Also, I wasn't the one who made the original comment. I've only replied to you. I'm not the one who called OP out on their incorrect information.
I'm not sure why you're more concerned with how this was called out, instead of with OP for spreading false information

Coming to school lunch near you:

https://www.momsacrossamerica.com/impossible_foods_in_schools
Interestingly enough if I read the note correctly, all Utah Schools were given "Free" lunch for students last year during Covid & it continues again this year.
I was wondering who had deep pockets that would do this. White hats trying to ease burden? Black hats trying to get everyone on the "Free" ride with life long side effects?
This information is interesting & worth digging deeper into at the very least. I will be asking the local schools if there is any discussion, marketing (ie emails or other info), or possibly of "Impossible" meats going into our schools, & where they are contracting for food to come from this year. I should probably ask that every year.
Its seems Bill Gates is a lead investor at around $500M, If I'm reading this correctly.

I don't have time now to investigate these other investor groups but I don't doubt for a second Google and Bezos are involved in them. They always are just a matter of how deep you dig.
