About this episode

This episode addresses listener questions about the nutritional value of grass-fed versus grain-fed beef, the classification of cell-cultivated meat, and the taste of insect protein, along with tips for reducing food waste.

Throughout the season, we asked you all what questions you had about food, solutions and climate change, and you did not disappoint! In this episode, we find answers to your most pressing questions, like whether grass-fed beef is more nutritious than grain-fed, if cell-cultivated meat is considered an ultra-processed food, and we find out what’s going on with insect protein (of course, a taste test is involved). Plus some tips for reducing food waste.
