Founded in 2006, Upton’s Naturals is perhaps the coolest legacy vegan protein alternative in stores today. Here, we chat with Dan Staackmann, owner and president, about plant-based protein merchandising, cultured meat and the future of the plant-based movement. I chose not to do tempeh and tofu because they are way more complicated to make, and there are so many regional producers of those protein alternatives. Where do you think meat alternatives should be merchandised—next to the beef, chicken and pork, or in the produce or dairy aisle? I don’t think meat alternatives are the sole answer.
