Welcome to TMC iPlug !
I'd love to see the mega-corps enter the Alt-tissue market but it strikes me as similar to the Detroit Auto makers trying to compete Vs Tesla. They are shackled by huge sunk costs, long term contracts, massive special interests and a legion of managers who only know how to plasti-wrap slaughtered animals for consumption.
SageBrush - the large corps realize how far behind they are (aka how much market share they've already lost and unprecedented negative growth throughout their traditional sectors) and are compensating by buying out every alt-tissue and plant-based meat start-up they can. The amount of money being showered onto the natural/organic/alternative foods markets is insane - and scary. They were definitely slow to catch on, as can be expected, but believe me they are trying to cash in, fast!
