Miyoko Schinner is the fearless CEO/founder of Miyoko’s, a food brand combining culinary traditions with food technology to revolutionize dairy by making cheese and butter without cows. Through an innovative proprietary process that merges food science with old-world creamery methods, Schinner has successfully scaled the production of fermented cheese and cultured butter made from plants. Under Schinner’s visionary leadership, Miyoko’s has replaced animal-dairy products on the shelves of more than 10,000 retailers nationwide including Target, Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Kroger, and Safeway.

In this episode Nil Zacharias chats with Miyoko Schinner about the COVID-19 crisis and what it is revealing about ourselves, factory farming, and how plant-based food startups can survive and thrive in the uncertain months and years ahead.
