Setting the Record Straight with PBPC

The Plant Based Products Council’s setting the record straight blog series examines common misconceptions about plant-based products, provides clear definitions for commonly used terms, and sets the record straight on products derived from nature. Products made from plants are new and innovative, so there are a lot of unknowns – and we want to change that. We want to help consumers understand the many benefits of plant-based products, the diversity of available products, and how they fit into the circular bioeconomy.
