Accountability Blog

The Plant Based Products Council’s accountability blog series takes a look at how the plant-based products industry is portrayed in popular media. We started this series to correct the record on common myths and misconceptions reported in the media so consumers can stay informed and separate fact from fiction. We also think it is important to commend news outlets for getting it right and give credit where it’s due for solid reporting.
