Veggie BurGErS Back to School

Abstract

Join us Tuesday, January 7, at 12 pm in Poe 202 for our first GES Colloquium of the semester. As usual, lunch will be provided, and we ask you come prepared to give a brief update for the group about accomplishments during your Fall semester.
As for lunch, we will be holding a tasting of two widely publicized ‘plant-based meat’ products, the Beyond Burger (courtesy of Hardee’s) and the Impossible Burger (courtesy of Burger King). How is this related to Genetic Engineering & Society? Come to the Colloquium to find out (and read some popular press on the topic, in NPR and the New Yorker).
