UnchainedTV: The End of Eggs! The Solution to Skyrocketing Egg Prices!

1
00:00:00,420 --> 00:00:03,980
Egg prices could rise by 41% this

2
00:00:03,980 --> 00:00:07,760
year, the USDA estimates, and our agriculture department

3
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:11,020
is also looking to import eggs as prices

4
00:00:11,020 --> 00:00:11,660
soar.

5
00:00:12,060 --> 00:00:12,700
Guess what?

6
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:14,120
There is no need.

7
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:15,140
What egg shortage?

8
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:18,360
There's never been a better time to try

9
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:19,560
plant-based eggs.

10
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:21,440
That's a just egg omelette.

11
00:00:21,820 --> 00:00:25,260
And here I am making a just egg

12
00:00:25,260 --> 00:00:27,320
omelette just the other day.

13
00:00:27,420 --> 00:00:29,480
I could testify in a court of law.

14
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:32,520
It looks like eggs, it tastes like eggs,

15
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:36,640
but it's got added advantages of zero cholesterol

16
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:38,460
with plenty of protein.

17
00:00:39,260 --> 00:00:42,920
This is the opportunity of a lifetime to

18
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:47,380
drop kick that bad high habit and switch

19
00:00:47,380 --> 00:00:49,240
to just egg.

20
00:00:49,660 --> 00:00:54,180
It looks exactly like eggs, except it's from

21
00:00:54,180 --> 00:00:54,580
plants.

22
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:56,980
So excited to be talking to the founder

23
00:00:56,980 --> 00:01:01,100
CEO of Eat Just, maker of this incredible

24
00:01:01,100 --> 00:01:01,700
product.

25
00:01:01,980 --> 00:01:04,000
And Josh, we're in the middle of a

26
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,340
bird flu crisis and price of eggs is

27
00:01:07,340 --> 00:01:09,220
skyrocketing and there's a lack of availability.

28
00:01:09,660 --> 00:01:13,520
How does that help you with just egg?

29
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,320
Well, it helps us, Jane, because often we're

30
00:01:16,320 --> 00:01:17,560
the only egg on the shelf now.

31
00:01:17,660 --> 00:01:20,520
So you've got millions of Americans going to

32
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,040
buy chicken eggs and they go to the

33
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,740
egg set at Walmart or Whole Foods or

34
00:01:26,740 --> 00:01:28,900
Kroger or their local grocery store.

35
00:01:29,620 --> 00:01:31,420
And often because of what's happening with the

36
00:01:31,420 --> 00:01:34,120
eggs, they see one egg on the shelf

37
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,100
and it happens to be that yellow carton.

38
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:38,700
And it happens not to be made from

39
00:01:38,700 --> 00:01:41,140
chickens, but made from plants.

40
00:01:41,180 --> 00:01:44,320
And as a result, we're growing five times

41
00:01:44,320 --> 00:01:47,360
faster than we were at this time last

42
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:47,620
year.

43
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,580
We're growing five times faster than chicken eggs.

44
00:01:51,460 --> 00:01:54,580
And it's a quite an extraordinary moment for

45
00:01:54,580 --> 00:01:57,020
us and I think the plant based industry

46
00:01:57,020 --> 00:02:00,040
to be where we are today.

47
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,640
We've got to make sure that we're delivering

48
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,260
on time to these retailers.

49
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,660
We're always in stock because there's no better

50
00:02:07,660 --> 00:02:09,759
time to move people from the chicken egg

51
00:02:09,759 --> 00:02:13,320
habit to the plant based habit than it

52
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:13,840
is today.

53
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,760
So just to be clear, you are seeing

54
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,860
a surge in sales as a result of

55
00:02:19,860 --> 00:02:20,980
the bird flu crisis.

56
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,680
We're seeing a surge in sales across the

57
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:23,960
board.

58
00:02:24,100 --> 00:02:25,920
So everywhere from where I was raised in

59
00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:32,600
Birmingham, Alabama, to Oakland, California, to everywhere in

60
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,820
between, millions of Americans are discovering that an

61
00:02:35,820 --> 00:02:39,020
egg from a plant exists for the first

62
00:02:39,020 --> 00:02:39,420
time.

63
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,920
And we're seeing more Americans today try it

64
00:02:44,920 --> 00:02:45,160
out.

65
00:02:45,300 --> 00:02:48,200
More Americans use it in frittatas and quiches

66
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,720
and omelettes and scrambled eggs during the week

67
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,440
and during the weekend.

68
00:02:53,140 --> 00:02:54,700
And it's a real breakthrough moment.

69
00:02:55,640 --> 00:02:59,700
So we have an incredible panel for you

70
00:02:59,700 --> 00:03:00,300
today.

71
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,640
We're going to start with Stephanie McBurnett of

72
00:03:03,640 --> 00:03:05,700
Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine.

73
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,440
This is a moment in history, Stephanie, where

74
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,620
our culture can really make the shift.

75
00:03:11,780 --> 00:03:12,660
Tell us about it.

76
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,780
The pain in your wallet to switch over

77
00:03:19,780 --> 00:03:23,220
to away from eggs right at the breakfast

78
00:03:23,220 --> 00:03:23,700
table.

79
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,660
So I like to talk about the big

80
00:03:25,660 --> 00:03:26,080
three.

81
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,740
Egg consumption is linked to higher heart disease

82
00:03:29,740 --> 00:03:30,160
risk.

83
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,900
Number two, higher rates of type 2 diabetes.

84
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,980
And then even some certain cancers are linked

85
00:03:37,980 --> 00:03:39,280
to egg consumption.

86
00:03:39,740 --> 00:03:42,260
So I just think this is a great

87
00:03:42,260 --> 00:03:43,820
moment in time where we can all kind

88
00:03:43,820 --> 00:03:45,840
of sit back and take a breath and

89
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,760
think, why do we need to consume eggs?

90
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,160
There's such better options for our health.

91
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,140
And how is that going?

92
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,100
Are you seeing, because Physicians Committee for Responsible

93
00:03:57,100 --> 00:04:01,160
Medicine reaches out to thousands of doctors and

94
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,240
registered dietitians and people looking to improve their

95
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,780
health, are you seeing a breakthrough or are

96
00:04:06,780 --> 00:04:09,560
you seeing people still think, I've got to

97
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:10,740
get that egg?

98
00:04:10,900 --> 00:04:13,260
Because that's what the mainstream media is pushing.

99
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,320
I mean, they're just pushing eggs, eggs, eggs.

100
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,019
And yet they don't really talk about the

101
00:04:20,019 --> 00:04:21,620
obvious alternatives.

102
00:04:23,220 --> 00:04:27,300
Yes, this is a great opportunity for kind

103
00:04:27,300 --> 00:04:30,480
of those physicians that lean into the plant

104
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,420
based world that are plant strong or 100

105
00:04:33,420 --> 00:04:36,740
percent, because patients are coming to the doctor

106
00:04:36,740 --> 00:04:38,560
saying, I can't find eggs.

107
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,060
How am I supposed to eat a healthy

108
00:04:40,060 --> 00:04:40,420
breakfast?

109
00:04:40,780 --> 00:04:43,260
And they can slide right in and say,

110
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:44,500
you don't need eggs.

111
00:04:45,340 --> 00:04:47,220
Not only do they hurt your wallet, but

112
00:04:47,220 --> 00:04:48,180
they're hurting your heart.

113
00:04:48,220 --> 00:04:50,580
They're increasing your risk of type two diabetes

114
00:04:50,580 --> 00:04:52,620
and they could be increasing your risk of

115
00:04:52,620 --> 00:04:52,960
cancer.

116
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,520
So I think this is a great moment

117
00:04:55,520 --> 00:05:00,040
in time to really seize, seize the day.

118
00:05:00,140 --> 00:05:00,380
Right.

119
00:05:00,460 --> 00:05:03,780
And really discuss with our patients the benefits

120
00:05:03,780 --> 00:05:05,940
of choosing something else at breakfast.

121
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,920
Now, I want to bring in Tracy Shiles,

122
00:05:09,180 --> 00:05:11,420
and she has her own line of cookies

123
00:05:11,420 --> 00:05:14,460
where she makes incredibly delicious cookies without any

124
00:05:14,460 --> 00:05:15,820
eggs at all.

125
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,500
And she is an expert in egg replacers.

126
00:05:18,740 --> 00:05:19,880
So take it away.

127
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,980
What do you have there?

128
00:05:22,740 --> 00:05:25,480
So these are my cookies that I make.

129
00:05:25,580 --> 00:05:28,080
These are Tracy's Real Foods cookies.

130
00:05:29,060 --> 00:05:31,940
And, you know, they hold together fine without

131
00:05:31,940 --> 00:05:32,640
eggs.

132
00:05:33,020 --> 00:05:36,720
I have been egg free myself since 1990

133
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,260
when I became vegan and learned about the

134
00:05:39,260 --> 00:05:41,840
industry and just decided, you know, I'm not

135
00:05:41,840 --> 00:05:43,880
going to take part in any of that.

136
00:05:43,900 --> 00:05:46,260
I don't want to support that industry and

137
00:05:46,260 --> 00:05:47,920
the cruelty that was going on because I

138
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:49,900
knew about factory farming back then.

139
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,180
So, so, you know, what are you going

140
00:05:52,180 --> 00:05:52,660
to do, though?

141
00:05:52,900 --> 00:05:55,080
So I've always been a home chef and

142
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,460
then I became a professional chef and started

143
00:05:58,460 --> 00:05:59,060
my company.

144
00:05:59,900 --> 00:06:02,800
And so I just throughout the years investigated

145
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,660
and looked into all the different ways you

146
00:06:05,660 --> 00:06:08,960
can replace eggs for everything across the board.

147
00:06:09,260 --> 00:06:10,400
They are not needed.

148
00:06:10,500 --> 00:06:11,360
They're archaic.

149
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,300
We don't need them at all.

150
00:06:13,340 --> 00:06:16,780
So I could show you a lot of

151
00:06:16,780 --> 00:06:19,700
great alternatives that you can use for all

152
00:06:19,700 --> 00:06:20,400
the different things.

153
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,460
So just egg is a great alternative for

154
00:06:23,460 --> 00:06:26,300
if you want to create a scramble, a

155
00:06:26,300 --> 00:06:27,600
frittata, something like that.

156
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,960
But if you're baking, maybe you're going to

157
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,700
want to try something else.

158
00:06:31,900 --> 00:06:33,020
And I'm old school.

159
00:06:33,100 --> 00:06:35,780
I've been using these different things for years.

160
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:37,900
And so I just want to show you

161
00:06:37,900 --> 00:06:40,400
a few of the great alternatives that are

162
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:41,460
out there for different.

163
00:06:41,500 --> 00:06:41,920
Go ahead.

164
00:06:42,460 --> 00:06:42,980
Okay.

165
00:06:43,380 --> 00:06:46,980
So what we have are, you know, there's

166
00:06:46,980 --> 00:06:49,720
some great alternatives out there and some great

167
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:50,820
graphics out there.

168
00:06:50,900 --> 00:06:53,700
You can find even positions committee who I'm

169
00:06:53,700 --> 00:06:54,320
associated with.

170
00:06:54,420 --> 00:06:56,400
I'm a food for life instructor that Stephanie's

171
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:56,680
with.

172
00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:01,100
They have great alternatives and great resources.

173
00:07:02,180 --> 00:07:02,700
Oh, yeah.

174
00:07:02,820 --> 00:07:06,100
So this is what I use for my

175
00:07:06,100 --> 00:07:06,460
cookies.

176
00:07:06,840 --> 00:07:08,700
And this is old school is using flax

177
00:07:08,700 --> 00:07:09,080
seeds.

178
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,440
So when you want to create a flax

179
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:12,880
egg, it's super simple.

180
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:14,640
You just take some water.

181
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,420
Now these flax seeds I showed you, those

182
00:07:17,420 --> 00:07:18,540
are the whole flax seeds.

183
00:07:18,660 --> 00:07:19,800
Now you don't want to use those.

184
00:07:19,900 --> 00:07:21,140
You want to grind them up.

185
00:07:21,260 --> 00:07:23,120
Now you can buy it as flax meal

186
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:24,600
or you can grind them up yourself.

187
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,380
And then you just go ahead and take

188
00:07:28,380 --> 00:07:32,060
three tablespoons of water and one tablespoon of

189
00:07:32,060 --> 00:07:35,380
ground flax and stir it up.

190
00:07:36,020 --> 00:07:37,700
You can see it's kind of watery.

191
00:07:37,980 --> 00:07:39,520
I'm going to go through some other things

192
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:40,920
and we'll come back and we'll show you

193
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,040
how this is thickened up.

194
00:07:42,660 --> 00:07:44,400
I love it.

195
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,500
And we will come back to you in

196
00:07:46,500 --> 00:07:47,420
just a second.

197
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,140
Now we have a real treat for you.

198
00:07:50,340 --> 00:07:52,340
We are going to go out to a

199
00:07:52,340 --> 00:07:57,580
kitchen in Encino, California with famed vegan chef

200
00:07:57,580 --> 00:07:58,780
Karen Lakava.

201
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:00,000
Karen, take it away.

202
00:08:00,300 --> 00:08:02,120
What are you making in that pan?

203
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:03,040
It looks delicious.

204
00:08:03,580 --> 00:08:05,080
So I'm making an omelette.

205
00:08:05,460 --> 00:08:07,820
I just poured in some just egg.

206
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,020
Well, it's called eggs from plants.

207
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,780
And I love making omelettes with these.

208
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,120
I actually have one right here that I

209
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:16,440
made a little while ago.

210
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,180
And it has some salsa on top.

211
00:08:19,700 --> 00:08:22,320
So this one is I just poured this

212
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:23,280
in a little while ago.

213
00:08:23,380 --> 00:08:24,520
So what I'm going to do is I'm

214
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:25,900
going to add some cheese.

215
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:27,980
And that's vegan cheese?

216
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:29,340
Vegan cheese.

217
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,140
And this is a vegan monster cheese.

218
00:08:31,659 --> 00:08:33,659
And then I'm going to add some caramelised

219
00:08:33,659 --> 00:08:34,460
onions.

220
00:08:35,159 --> 00:08:37,120
And I'm going to add some roasted bell

221
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:41,460
peppers and all kinds of yummy things, right?

222
00:08:41,700 --> 00:08:43,480
And then there we go.

223
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,540
So I'm going to let that cook for

224
00:08:45,540 --> 00:08:48,860
a second and then I'm going to turn

225
00:08:48,860 --> 00:08:49,360
it over.

226
00:08:49,560 --> 00:08:51,080
It's still cooking a little bit.

227
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:54,180
And let me ask you, how does this

228
00:08:54,180 --> 00:08:56,040
compare to chicken eggs?

229
00:08:56,260 --> 00:08:58,740
Those people who think, oh, it's never going

230
00:08:58,740 --> 00:08:59,380
to be the same.

231
00:08:59,460 --> 00:09:00,960
To me, it looks exactly the same.

232
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,460
I've tasted just egg.

233
00:09:03,500 --> 00:09:05,380
It tastes to me identical.

234
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:07,660
Tell me about it.

235
00:09:08,300 --> 00:09:11,540
So it tastes identical to me too.

236
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,240
I have to admit, I haven't had chicken

237
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:14,960
eggs since before 1990.

238
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,680
Just like Tracy, I became vegan in 1990.

239
00:09:18,860 --> 00:09:22,900
But what I remember, it definitely tastes the

240
00:09:22,900 --> 00:09:23,180
same.

241
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,320
And I have served these to my non

242
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,460
-vegan friends and they thought it was delicious

243
00:09:27,460 --> 00:09:28,000
also.

244
00:09:28,680 --> 00:09:30,340
So you can't go wrong.

245
00:09:30,340 --> 00:09:33,300
And you're not harming any animals, the planet,

246
00:09:33,560 --> 00:09:33,960
yourself.

247
00:09:34,740 --> 00:09:36,140
So why not do it?

248
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,360
And right now, especially with what's going on,

249
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:39,200
it's just crazy.

250
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,340
So it's the perfect time to move over

251
00:09:42,340 --> 00:09:45,060
and start some vegan egg inviting.

252
00:09:45,060 --> 00:09:46,800
Pick that pan up and show it to

253
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:47,540
us a little bit.

254
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,580
So this is what it looks like right

255
00:09:49,580 --> 00:09:50,080
now.

256
00:09:50,500 --> 00:09:53,140
And I'm going to flip it over so

257
00:09:53,140 --> 00:09:55,280
that it's more like an omelette.

258
00:09:56,100 --> 00:09:56,460
See?

259
00:09:57,940 --> 00:09:58,380
Okay.

260
00:09:58,980 --> 00:10:00,840
And then, see, now it looks like an

261
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:01,180
omelette.

262
00:10:01,620 --> 00:10:02,060
Okay.

263
00:10:02,220 --> 00:10:02,460
Wow.

264
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:03,800
Hold it up a little bit.

265
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,520
Higher, higher, higher, higher.

266
00:10:06,780 --> 00:10:07,980
You know what's going to help?

267
00:10:08,180 --> 00:10:09,000
Let me do this.

268
00:10:09,980 --> 00:10:10,980
There we go.

269
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:12,020
There we go.

270
00:10:12,100 --> 00:10:12,600
Look at that.

271
00:10:12,820 --> 00:10:13,960
You can watch this.

272
00:10:14,060 --> 00:10:14,340
Ready?

273
00:10:17,100 --> 00:10:18,080
We can flip it.

274
00:10:18,460 --> 00:10:19,260
Oh, wow.

275
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,500
Now, that's amazing.

276
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,200
Carol Acaba, you are quite the chef.

277
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:26,320
Thank you.

278
00:10:26,420 --> 00:10:29,660
And I just think that it's so egg

279
00:10:29,660 --> 00:10:29,980
-like.

280
00:10:30,380 --> 00:10:33,640
Yes, I will say myself as well, I

281
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,240
have not had eggs in many, many, many,

282
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:36,960
many years.

283
00:10:37,140 --> 00:10:39,800
But my friends who have tried this, who

284
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,020
are not yet vegan, they're like, Jane, I

285
00:10:43,020 --> 00:10:44,200
thought you were vegan.

286
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:45,580
Why are you serving us eggs?

287
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,300
And it's because you can't tell the difference.

288
00:10:48,700 --> 00:10:51,260
Now, if you can't tell the difference, okay,

289
00:10:51,420 --> 00:10:54,300
and if there's a bird flu, which there

290
00:10:54,300 --> 00:10:56,520
is, and I'm getting breaking news into my

291
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,080
phone right now as I speak about some

292
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:00,620
latest developments in the bird flu.

293
00:11:01,420 --> 00:11:05,300
And if there's a health benefit to eating

294
00:11:05,300 --> 00:11:08,120
the plant-based eggs, why not make the

295
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:08,460
switch?

296
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,560
It looks the same, it tastes the same,

297
00:11:10,680 --> 00:11:13,180
and there's added benefits, and there's a bird

298
00:11:13,180 --> 00:11:13,440
flu.

299
00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:17,500
I want to go back to Stephanie McBurnett

300
00:11:17,500 --> 00:11:19,580
with Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine.

301
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,840
As a registered dietitian, what are the problems

302
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:24,580
with eggs?

303
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,840
Because eggs are still being sold as a

304
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,660
health food, and that's just not true.

305
00:11:31,100 --> 00:11:33,320
Yeah, so there's a few components in eggs

306
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,600
that are really kind of bringing those negative

307
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:36,200
health effects.

308
00:11:36,420 --> 00:11:39,700
One is they have over 200 milligrammes of

309
00:11:39,700 --> 00:11:40,140
cholesterol.

310
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,940
And cholesterol right now is the leading, you

311
00:11:43,940 --> 00:11:46,920
know, it's really linked to heart disease.

312
00:11:47,380 --> 00:11:50,300
So the highest source of cholesterol in the

313
00:11:50,300 --> 00:11:52,940
American diet, leaps and bounds over any other

314
00:11:52,940 --> 00:11:54,420
food is going to be eggs.

315
00:11:54,620 --> 00:11:56,440
So if you have heart disease, if you

316
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,460
have type 2 diabetes, you need to be

317
00:11:58,460 --> 00:11:59,380
avoiding eggs.

318
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,140
Another factor is there's no fibre in eggs.

319
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,360
So if you're even replacing that with a

320
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,900
whole grain cereal or toast at breakfast, you're,

321
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,680
you know, you're not getting any fibre from

322
00:12:10,680 --> 00:12:11,060
eggs.

323
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,720
Also, there's choline in eggs, which some people

324
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,120
tout is like a positive, and maybe this

325
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,400
is where that kind of, where people are

326
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,380
talking about the health benefits of eggs.

327
00:12:22,380 --> 00:12:25,420
But choline has actually been linked to prostate

328
00:12:25,420 --> 00:12:28,840
cancer, and it has been linked to why

329
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,120
eggs have increased cancer risk.

330
00:12:32,420 --> 00:12:35,040
So it's kind of that triple threat of

331
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,880
they're high in cholesterol, they have saturated fat,

332
00:12:38,300 --> 00:12:40,520
they have choline, and then they have no

333
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:41,020
fibre.

334
00:12:42,220 --> 00:12:44,360
You're making a lot of good points.

335
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,660
People are commenting left and right about this.

336
00:12:47,660 --> 00:12:49,680
Coconut tastes eggy.

337
00:12:50,500 --> 00:12:51,060
Yum.

338
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:56,160
And where do we get the vegan muenster

339
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:56,580
cheese?

340
00:12:57,140 --> 00:12:58,720
Well, before we get to where do we

341
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,980
get the vegan muenster cheese, I would like

342
00:13:00,980 --> 00:13:03,120
to talk a little bit about where we

343
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:04,020
get Just Egg.

344
00:13:04,260 --> 00:13:06,060
And in fact, I was able to interview

345
00:13:06,060 --> 00:13:10,000
the CEO of Eat Just, the maker of

346
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,860
Just Egg about that exactly.

347
00:13:13,060 --> 00:13:16,540
Where are people buying Just Egg mostly from?

348
00:13:17,100 --> 00:13:19,100
You can get Just Egg, I'll start with

349
00:13:19,100 --> 00:13:19,560
retail.

350
00:13:19,940 --> 00:13:21,760
So if you live next to a Walmart

351
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,220
anywhere in the country, you go to where

352
00:13:24,220 --> 00:13:25,960
the eggs are sold, and you'll see it.

353
00:13:26,060 --> 00:13:27,780
We also have a frozen egg patty called

354
00:13:27,780 --> 00:13:29,900
Just Egg Folded that's in the, where the

355
00:13:29,900 --> 00:13:31,460
frozen breakfast items are sold.

356
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,620
So Walmart, and Whole Foods, and ShopRite, and

357
00:13:35,620 --> 00:13:37,780
Kroger, and Publix in the south, that's where

358
00:13:37,780 --> 00:13:40,800
my mom shops at West Palm Beach, Florida,

359
00:13:41,540 --> 00:13:42,000
Kroger.

360
00:13:42,380 --> 00:13:44,380
You can get Just Egg at Berkeley Bowl,

361
00:13:44,420 --> 00:13:47,040
about seven miles from here.

362
00:13:47,260 --> 00:13:49,220
You can get Just Egg in Kauai, in

363
00:13:49,220 --> 00:13:51,860
Maui, all across Montana.

364
00:13:52,100 --> 00:13:55,280
So every state in the country, almost every

365
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,440
major retailer in the country has it right

366
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,620
next to where the eggs are sold.

367
00:13:59,920 --> 00:14:02,980
And then on the restaurant side, we're available

368
00:14:02,980 --> 00:14:05,560
at Pete's Coffee, and Caribou, and hundreds of

369
00:14:05,560 --> 00:14:08,240
colleges and universities from Yale to the University

370
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:09,420
of California system.

371
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,800
Lots of diners from Texas, back to Hawaii

372
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:14,920
and Montana again.

373
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,940
It's a broad retail, broad food service distribution.

374
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,060
And we've only just started.

375
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,100
This thing only launched about four years ago.

376
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:25,420
So we got, we got a lot more

377
00:14:25,420 --> 00:14:25,700
to go.

378
00:14:26,260 --> 00:14:28,320
Are you thinking of going public?

379
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:30,520
Eventually we will.

380
00:14:30,620 --> 00:14:32,940
Yeah, we want to continue to build, build

381
00:14:32,940 --> 00:14:34,020
our sales volume.

382
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:40,380
Thankfully, primarily because of our, our largest shareholder,

383
00:14:40,980 --> 00:14:44,960
who continues to emphasise to me, the import

384
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:46,720
of selling our product at a higher and

385
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,640
higher margin, having more of an impact.

386
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,860
Every case that we sell today, every unit

387
00:14:51,860 --> 00:14:53,580
that we sell today is at a positive

388
00:14:53,580 --> 00:14:57,300
margin, which enables us to continue to be

389
00:14:57,300 --> 00:14:59,680
self-reliant, to be a healthy company.

390
00:15:00,020 --> 00:15:01,720
So we're going to keep getting our margins

391
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,820
up, our growth higher, our consumer awareness higher,

392
00:15:04,940 --> 00:15:07,040
which certainly this bird flu situation is helpful

393
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:07,380
with.

394
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,120
And then eventually the plan is to, to,

395
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,260
to go public and, and let everyday people

396
00:15:13,260 --> 00:15:15,080
participate in the, in the mission.

397
00:15:16,180 --> 00:15:20,100
And we've got breaking news just in as

398
00:15:20,100 --> 00:15:21,180
we speak.

399
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,780
This is a report that I am reading

400
00:15:23,780 --> 00:15:25,940
that somebody sent me from the New York

401
00:15:25,940 --> 00:15:29,580
Post and it literally came out moments ago,

402
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,540
hundreds of birds in New York City infected

403
00:15:32,540 --> 00:15:36,500
by bird flu after poultry markets allowed to

404
00:15:36,500 --> 00:15:37,220
reopen.

405
00:15:37,700 --> 00:15:39,980
Hundreds of birds at a Queens live poultry

406
00:15:39,980 --> 00:15:42,720
market have succumbed to a new bird flu

407
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,340
outbreak less than two weeks after the shops

408
00:15:45,340 --> 00:15:47,840
were allowed to reopen as the virus runs

409
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,660
rampant across the nation.

410
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,480
At least 150 birds were found to be

411
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:57,940
infected with the extremely contagious and devastating virus

412
00:15:57,940 --> 00:16:00,360
according to data from the animal and plant

413
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,300
inspection service.

414
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:04,920
So that is very shocking.

415
00:16:05,380 --> 00:16:08,760
What is your response Stephanie McBurnett as a

416
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,220
representative of Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine?

417
00:16:12,100 --> 00:16:13,960
I mean, that's pretty scary to hear.

418
00:16:14,340 --> 00:16:15,400
It is not getting better.

419
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:16,360
It's getting worse.

420
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,400
It's, it started a few years ago and

421
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:19,720
it's just snowballing.

422
00:16:20,140 --> 00:16:23,220
But the silver lining is this is a

423
00:16:23,220 --> 00:16:27,220
great opportunity to switch to something healthier at

424
00:16:27,220 --> 00:16:28,000
breakfast time.

425
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,360
This is, you know, intervention saying, you know,

426
00:16:32,380 --> 00:16:35,260
it's, it's, there's, we have a health crisis

427
00:16:35,260 --> 00:16:37,340
and eggs are not helping that.

428
00:16:37,460 --> 00:16:40,020
And so we can just switch right to

429
00:16:40,020 --> 00:16:42,440
something healthier that has just as much protein.

430
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,480
I know we talk about eggs and it

431
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,260
having some protein and that's why it's touted

432
00:16:47,260 --> 00:16:49,420
as healthy, but there are plenty of other

433
00:16:49,420 --> 00:16:52,560
options, just like just egg that have just

434
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,560
as much protein, if not more for your

435
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:54,940
breakfast.

436
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,360
And we want to go back now to

437
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,020
Tracy Childs.

438
00:17:00,140 --> 00:17:05,220
Tracy, you've been showing us the alternatives that

439
00:17:05,220 --> 00:17:08,260
you might call the natural alternatives that are

440
00:17:08,260 --> 00:17:11,339
literally just things like flaxseed.

441
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:11,880
Okay.

442
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:13,339
I've got flaxseed right here.

443
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,020
Look, flaxseed.

444
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:17,619
It's so simple, but it's a binder.

445
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:18,960
Take it away.

446
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,240
You were, you were showing us some really

447
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:22,119
mom and pop.

448
00:17:22,599 --> 00:17:26,920
Anybody at home can use these ingredients to

449
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:30,140
mimic eggs and use them in baking and

450
00:17:30,140 --> 00:17:30,420
cooking.

451
00:17:31,540 --> 00:17:32,380
Yeah, absolutely.

452
00:17:32,980 --> 00:17:34,280
Yes, absolutely.

453
00:17:34,540 --> 00:17:37,280
So, so this is the flax egg that

454
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:38,320
I, I created.

455
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,720
If you missed it, all this is, is

456
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:46,240
one tablespoon of flax ground flaxseed, like Jane

457
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,980
showed us and three tablespoons of water.

458
00:17:49,060 --> 00:17:51,780
And you can see how it's thickened up

459
00:17:51,780 --> 00:17:56,120
and become kind of viscous like eggs and

460
00:17:56,120 --> 00:17:56,480
sticky.

461
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,380
So this can be put into a, anywhere

462
00:18:00,380 --> 00:18:03,360
where you're baking that were called for an

463
00:18:03,360 --> 00:18:03,680
egg.

464
00:18:04,140 --> 00:18:06,640
So the other, the other thing that's similar,

465
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,400
if you don't want to use flax is

466
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:08,740
chia.

467
00:18:10,460 --> 00:18:12,620
Okay, let's go into chia seeds.

468
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,420
So chia seeds, you can these actually, you

469
00:18:15,420 --> 00:18:17,020
don't need to grind, but it may take

470
00:18:17,020 --> 00:18:19,200
a little more time, but same thing.

471
00:18:19,340 --> 00:18:22,320
You can put chia seeds with water and

472
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,160
put them, you know, chia seeds are amazing.

473
00:18:24,360 --> 00:18:26,340
And these, both of these are high in

474
00:18:26,340 --> 00:18:28,020
omega three fatty acids.

475
00:18:28,580 --> 00:18:31,800
So, you know, not only are they healthy

476
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,180
and have no cholesterol, they are also have

477
00:18:34,180 --> 00:18:36,780
protein, they're a seed, and they have really

478
00:18:36,780 --> 00:18:38,580
good fats that are good for your heart,

479
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:39,680
not bad for your heart.

480
00:18:40,100 --> 00:18:41,820
So I like that.

481
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,020
And, and I love showing people in my

482
00:18:44,020 --> 00:18:47,900
classes, I teach food for life, nutrition and

483
00:18:47,900 --> 00:18:50,500
cooking, and this is black salt.

484
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,060
So this is, it's an Indian black salt,

485
00:18:54,140 --> 00:18:55,140
and you can sprinkle this.

486
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:56,680
And I know this is what makes just

487
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,020
egg taste like egg too, but you can

488
00:18:59,020 --> 00:19:01,400
also mix it with, this is what I've

489
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,180
been doing for years, put it with your

490
00:19:03,180 --> 00:19:06,060
tofu, mash up your tofu, or add some

491
00:19:06,060 --> 00:19:09,860
turmeric, add a bunch of spices, and you

492
00:19:09,860 --> 00:19:13,100
can create something that tastes like egg.

493
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:14,880
Now it's not going to be as close

494
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,200
as just egg, but we love it and

495
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:18,340
we've loved it for years.

496
00:19:19,020 --> 00:19:22,400
So, so another good idea for replacing eggs

497
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,480
is not the garbanzo beans themselves, but the

498
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:25,880
liquid.

499
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,220
This is called aquafaba.

500
00:19:29,100 --> 00:19:33,520
So aquafaba can actually be whipped up to

501
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:34,420
become a meringue.

502
00:19:35,500 --> 00:19:38,040
And aquafaba is just the cooking liquid from

503
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:38,820
garbanzo beans.

504
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:40,020
So you can open up a can and

505
00:19:40,020 --> 00:19:42,440
save that aquafaba in the fridge.

506
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,760
You can put it on some bread, bread

507
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:45,920
loaves instead of eggs.

508
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:47,080
You can whip it up.

509
00:19:47,260 --> 00:19:49,080
Like I said, you can use it as

510
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,360
an, an oil replacement too.

511
00:19:51,460 --> 00:19:52,520
It's amazing stuff.

512
00:19:52,620 --> 00:19:53,580
Don't throw it away.

513
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,120
Let me ask you, so what would you

514
00:19:56,120 --> 00:19:59,400
use the aquafaba with to make the egg

515
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:00,360
alternative?

516
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,620
So you put a little cream of tartar

517
00:20:04,620 --> 00:20:07,100
and, and then you put sugar with it

518
00:20:07,100 --> 00:20:08,140
if you want to make a meringue.

519
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:10,360
So it's just, you whip it up with

520
00:20:10,360 --> 00:20:13,880
your beaters and it becomes, and you can

521
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,540
also whip it up with your beaters and

522
00:20:15,540 --> 00:20:18,020
put it, fold it into things and it

523
00:20:18,020 --> 00:20:19,140
really will thicken things up.

524
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,300
And I just love, I love, love, love

525
00:20:21,300 --> 00:20:23,940
all of these alternatives and the ideas behind

526
00:20:23,940 --> 00:20:24,060
them.

527
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,020
And I, I would make my kids muffins

528
00:20:26,020 --> 00:20:29,700
back in the nineties and the recipe called

529
00:20:29,700 --> 00:20:32,400
for apple cider vinegar and baking soda.

530
00:20:32,860 --> 00:20:34,960
Now that's the thing is that these two

531
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,240
things, if you add them to your, to

532
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:41,300
your soy milk, that coagulates it and becomes

533
00:20:41,300 --> 00:20:45,300
like alive and it replaces eggs that way.

534
00:20:45,380 --> 00:20:49,000
It actually kind of becomes like a buttermilk,

535
00:20:49,120 --> 00:20:51,440
the, the, the butter, the apple cider vinegar

536
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,140
mixed with the soy milk becomes thick and

537
00:20:54,140 --> 00:20:56,900
then reacts with the baking soda in your

538
00:20:56,900 --> 00:20:57,300
recipe.

539
00:20:57,460 --> 00:21:01,100
So that's a good alternative for muffins and

540
00:21:01,100 --> 00:21:05,540
silken tofu is wonderful to be added to

541
00:21:05,540 --> 00:21:06,700
all kinds of things.

542
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:08,300
You can make your mayo out of it.

543
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,580
You don't need to have mayo made out

544
00:21:11,580 --> 00:21:12,120
of eggs.

545
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,900
Bananas are wonderful in pancakes and they're a

546
00:21:14,900 --> 00:21:15,520
great binder.

547
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,840
I want to ask you about bananas.

548
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:19,580
Yeah.

549
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,420
To me, bananas would be the easiest thing

550
00:21:22,420 --> 00:21:24,880
for me to say, Hey, I've got a

551
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:25,860
bunch of bananas here.

552
00:21:26,340 --> 00:21:28,920
How would you use the banana in cooking?

553
00:21:29,820 --> 00:21:31,680
So, uh, what you do is you mash

554
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,500
it up, you just mash it up and

555
00:21:33,500 --> 00:21:35,800
put it with your flour.

556
00:21:36,540 --> 00:21:39,160
And it's a great, great, I use it

557
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:39,720
in pancakes.

558
00:21:39,900 --> 00:21:42,300
This is, I, uh, my recipe is banana

559
00:21:42,300 --> 00:21:42,940
pancakes.

560
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:46,960
It's a bananas mashed up oat flour, soy,

561
00:21:47,140 --> 00:21:48,920
you know, some soy milk and some, and

562
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:49,580
some leavening.

563
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:50,220
That's all you need.

564
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:51,580
It's a natural sweetener too.

565
00:21:51,780 --> 00:21:53,560
So, you know, you use it in your

566
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,740
sweet recipes and I, uh, this is one

567
00:21:56,740 --> 00:21:59,140
of the, as often skipped, but oats, oats

568
00:21:59,140 --> 00:22:01,580
are, um, better than wheat as far as

569
00:22:01,580 --> 00:22:03,520
being more sticky when you grind them up

570
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,200
into the flour, um, put them with something

571
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:06,660
moist.

572
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,480
You know how oats do, they're just very

573
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:08,900
sticky.

574
00:22:09,060 --> 00:22:10,600
They're amazing as a binder.

575
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,660
So you can actually add oats instead of

576
00:22:13,660 --> 00:22:15,260
eggs, especially to burgers.

577
00:22:15,780 --> 00:22:17,700
Um, so that's what I use in my

578
00:22:17,700 --> 00:22:22,800
Tracy's Real Foods burgers is, um, is, is

579
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,520
flour and, um, and oat flour at that.

580
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,800
So, and I use oat flour in my,

581
00:22:27,900 --> 00:22:29,040
in my cookies as well.

582
00:22:29,120 --> 00:22:31,620
So, uh, you don't need to use eggs.

583
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,540
That's the bottom line is they're, they're really

584
00:22:34,540 --> 00:22:35,220
archaic.

585
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,440
They're not needed anymore and we can all

586
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,100
do much better without them.

587
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:39,660
For sure.

588
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,560
It seems though with the media that they're

589
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,100
constantly hammering on this need for eggs.

590
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,460
I mean, literally every time I turn on

591
00:22:49,460 --> 00:22:51,120
the TV and a lot of, a lot

592
00:22:51,120 --> 00:22:54,380
of politicians too, like eggs, eggs, eggs, they're

593
00:22:54,380 --> 00:22:56,520
using it as a political football on both

594
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:57,300
sides of the aisle.

595
00:22:57,500 --> 00:23:00,640
This is not a political statement, but, um,

596
00:23:00,940 --> 00:23:05,760
never, never recognising that it's the problem, not

597
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:06,460
the solution.

598
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:07,200
Okay.

599
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,000
That's what we're trying to let people know

600
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,700
is that eggs are the problem, not the

601
00:23:12,700 --> 00:23:13,100
solution.

602
00:23:13,300 --> 00:23:16,580
Eggs brought us the bird flu crisis, uh,

603
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,920
and the egg industry.

604
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,220
If we didn't have an egg industry, we

605
00:23:21,220 --> 00:23:24,480
wouldn't be producing all these chickens and the

606
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,440
bird flu wouldn't be a growing threat that's

607
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,140
infecting cows and infecting people and becoming a

608
00:23:30,140 --> 00:23:30,860
real crisis.

609
00:23:31,180 --> 00:23:34,920
So the idea that the media, which is

610
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:39,000
advertiser based and which basically works for their

611
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:43,740
advertisers, which is definitely not, you don't see

612
00:23:43,740 --> 00:23:45,620
many commercials for bananas, right?

613
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:46,540
And applesauce.

614
00:23:46,700 --> 00:23:49,780
It's usually, um, meat and dairy laden, fast

615
00:23:49,780 --> 00:23:50,760
food and junk food.

616
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,340
And then the pharmaceuticals that you need because

617
00:23:53,340 --> 00:23:56,120
you've gotten sick from all that horrible food.

618
00:23:56,380 --> 00:23:58,720
So they're not going to talk about these

619
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,720
alternatives with some exceptions.

620
00:24:00,900 --> 00:24:04,280
Uh, Josh Tetrick told me that, um, some

621
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,740
major networks have in the wake of this

622
00:24:06,740 --> 00:24:09,340
crisis, finally started to do a couple of

623
00:24:09,340 --> 00:24:14,760
episodes about, uh, alternatives specifically just egg.

624
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,080
I want to get back to the breaking

625
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,280
news that there's been this new outbreak of

626
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,760
bird flu in the New York city live

627
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,580
poultry markets, which of course, animal activists have

628
00:24:24,580 --> 00:24:26,460
been trying to shut down for years.

629
00:24:26,460 --> 00:24:29,320
They were shut down for a very short

630
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,160
period of time.

631
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,980
And all the activists said, that's ridiculous.

632
00:24:33,120 --> 00:24:34,340
You got to shut them down permanently.

633
00:24:34,380 --> 00:24:36,740
When they reopen the bird flu is just

634
00:24:36,740 --> 00:24:37,360
going to come back.

635
00:24:37,740 --> 00:24:39,040
And that's exactly what's happened.

636
00:24:39,460 --> 00:24:43,920
So let's hear Josh Tetrick, the CEO of

637
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,600
eat just the maker of just egg, the

638
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:50,860
leading plant-based egg alternative talk about the

639
00:24:50,860 --> 00:24:55,620
difference between the chicken egg process and his

640
00:24:55,620 --> 00:24:56,260
process.

641
00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:01,940
Uh, just egg is made primarily the primary

642
00:25:01,940 --> 00:25:03,940
ingredient is mung beans.

643
00:25:04,220 --> 00:25:06,500
The industry is really built on a premise

644
00:25:06,500 --> 00:25:09,700
that is, um, a problem, which is you

645
00:25:09,700 --> 00:25:11,460
can take lots of animals, put them in

646
00:25:11,460 --> 00:25:13,600
tiny spaces and hope that they don't get

647
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,140
sick, but eventually those animals will get sick.

648
00:25:17,820 --> 00:25:20,040
Um, and the good thing about mung beans

649
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:21,860
is you can pack them body to body,

650
00:25:21,940 --> 00:25:24,220
to body, to body by the tens of

651
00:25:24,220 --> 00:25:24,560
millions.

652
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:26,780
Uh, and they won't get sick.

653
00:25:26,820 --> 00:25:27,940
They don't get the flu.

654
00:25:28,580 --> 00:25:31,280
Uh, they're not susceptible to all the inflationary

655
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,060
pressures that chicken eggs are.

656
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,120
Um, I don't know whether the industry is,

657
00:25:37,140 --> 00:25:40,340
um, you know, attempting to stop our, our

658
00:25:40,340 --> 00:25:43,680
soaring sales today, but, uh, given what happened

659
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,080
in the past, I wouldn't be surprised.

660
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,060
So tell us a little bit about the

661
00:25:48,060 --> 00:25:51,480
benefits of just egg, aside from the fact

662
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:54,340
that it's available, it's on the shelves and,

663
00:25:54,500 --> 00:25:58,000
uh, obviously it's zero cholesterol, high in protein.

664
00:25:58,540 --> 00:26:01,680
Can you elaborate on the benefits price aside?

665
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:02,960
Yeah.

666
00:26:02,980 --> 00:26:04,840
So most people are probably surprised to learn

667
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,380
that 91% of the people who consume

668
00:26:07,380 --> 00:26:09,100
just egg, they're not vegan or vegetarian.

669
00:26:09,300 --> 00:26:11,200
These are just regular folks trying to eat

670
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:12,560
a little bit better for breakfast.

671
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,320
And what they end up liking is that

672
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:16,780
it's entirely free of cholesterol.

673
00:26:16,780 --> 00:26:18,820
It has three times less saturated fat than

674
00:26:18,820 --> 00:26:19,760
a chicken egg does.

675
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,660
It's full of plant protein, has about the

676
00:26:21,660 --> 00:26:23,600
same amount of protein as a, as a

677
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:27,100
chicken egg, uh, would didn't have any allergens.

678
00:26:27,100 --> 00:26:30,840
We're actually the very first, um, uh, egg,

679
00:26:30,980 --> 00:26:34,320
um, that has been, uh, awarded the clean

680
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:35,360
label certification.

681
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,280
So this is a pretty rigorous certification that

682
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,860
looks at pesticide residues, that looks at a

683
00:26:40,860 --> 00:26:43,960
variety of toxins, food dyes, colourings.

684
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,200
We pass that with flying colours and just

685
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,580
a word that not a single chicken egg

686
00:26:48,580 --> 00:26:50,940
has gone through that rigorous process.

687
00:26:51,100 --> 00:26:54,120
So people choose us because the taste, because

688
00:26:54,120 --> 00:26:56,140
of the health, because the protein, and now

689
00:26:56,140 --> 00:26:59,620
hopefully more folks will recognise us because of

690
00:26:59,620 --> 00:27:01,820
our, our commitment to being clean label.

691
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:04,540
And we're going to go back to our

692
00:27:04,540 --> 00:27:08,800
premier chef in Los Angeles, Karen LaCava, who

693
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,320
is making just egg.

694
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,240
What have you been making, Karen?

695
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,780
Well, this is the finished omelette, first of

696
00:27:14,780 --> 00:27:17,040
all, that I'm making.

697
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:18,980
I can't wait to dig in.

698
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,200
And I started making some, um, some fried

699
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,920
rice and you can see the just egg

700
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,760
that's in there and I'm stirring it up.

701
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:28,320
I, I, uh, what I did was I

702
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:29,460
scrambled the just egg.

703
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,860
I made the fried rice and then I

704
00:27:31,860 --> 00:27:33,200
added them together.

705
00:27:33,620 --> 00:27:35,500
And I also want to show you here,

706
00:27:35,500 --> 00:27:37,700
my ingredients that I've been using.

707
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,960
And yeah, so I have all kinds of

708
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:42,580
ingredients.

709
00:27:42,580 --> 00:27:45,220
It's, it's always fun to just have everything

710
00:27:45,220 --> 00:27:47,380
ready to go so that.

711
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:49,700
Can you tell us what those ingredients are?

712
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:51,060
I sure can.

713
00:27:51,380 --> 00:27:54,840
So I have, I have some caramelised onions.

714
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,220
I have salsa for the top.

715
00:27:57,360 --> 00:27:59,520
I have, instead of using spinach, I used,

716
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,020
um, Swiss chard, but this is rainbow chard,

717
00:28:03,540 --> 00:28:06,400
broccolini stems, which are really sweet and delicious.

718
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,880
And then some roasted bell pepper and then

719
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:10,440
the cheese.

720
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,080
And that vegan cheese is what?

721
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:15,020
So I had two types.

722
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,980
The one that I was cooking with is,

723
00:28:18,260 --> 00:28:21,020
uh, that was the monster that I got

724
00:28:21,020 --> 00:28:22,120
from the farmer's market.

725
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,160
And then this one here is a Mexican

726
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:25,920
blend that I used in the first, the

727
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:27,360
omelette that you didn't see me making.

728
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,460
So you can mix up the cheeses, all

729
00:28:29,460 --> 00:28:31,720
kinds of vegan feta would be delicious with

730
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:32,520
some spinach.

731
00:28:33,180 --> 00:28:35,200
Uh, it's just really fun to mix it

732
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:36,180
up and have fun.

733
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:37,960
And you can have a little omelette bar

734
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,180
here for your friends and family and have

735
00:28:40,180 --> 00:28:41,700
them pick what they want and you can

736
00:28:41,700 --> 00:28:42,680
make it fresh for them.

737
00:28:43,180 --> 00:28:44,320
I love doing that.

738
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,940
Um, you know, that way everybody gets what

739
00:28:46,940 --> 00:28:49,800
they want and who doesn't love fried rice

740
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,200
as a chef.

741
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,660
And I know you cater many events.

742
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,680
You're a vegan caterer, as well as somebody

743
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,460
who donates your time to many causes.

744
00:28:58,820 --> 00:29:02,020
Uh, you've made many dishes for unchained TVs,

745
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:02,920
fundraisers.

746
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:04,580
How does it feel?

747
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:05,300
How does it work?

748
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,680
The just day compared to chicken eggs?

749
00:29:08,460 --> 00:29:09,520
It's the same.

750
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:10,820
It's the same.

751
00:29:11,220 --> 00:29:12,840
It, it scrambles the same.

752
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:13,920
It tastes the same.

753
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,320
Um, I'd say it needs to set up

754
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,060
a little bit longer, but that's fine because

755
00:29:20,060 --> 00:29:22,080
you tend to burn your eggs if you're

756
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:22,620
not careful.

757
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,520
So from what I remember, um, yeah, it's

758
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:27,500
exactly the same.

759
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:28,380
You just shake it up.

760
00:29:28,420 --> 00:29:29,740
It's so much easier to, you don't have

761
00:29:29,740 --> 00:29:32,520
to break a shell and worry about, you

762
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:33,880
know, if you just pour it right in

763
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,500
there and, and, and you just let it

764
00:29:36,500 --> 00:29:38,220
set though, let it set.

765
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,140
If you're doing an omelette, don't mess with

766
00:29:40,140 --> 00:29:40,400
it.

767
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:41,580
And it's perfect.

768
00:29:42,460 --> 00:29:44,920
It's, it's, it's so easy to work with.

769
00:29:44,940 --> 00:29:45,880
I love it.

770
00:29:46,180 --> 00:29:46,860
I love it.

771
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:49,760
So thank you so much.

772
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:50,440
Karen LaCava.

773
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:51,680
We'll come back to you in a minute.

774
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,700
I do want to talk to Stephanie McBurnett,

775
00:29:54,820 --> 00:29:57,280
uh, who is with physicians committee for responsible

776
00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,900
medicine about the difficult side of this.

777
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,760
And that is that it's not just about

778
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:04,140
taste.

779
00:30:04,300 --> 00:30:05,820
It's not just about food, but it is

780
00:30:05,820 --> 00:30:07,820
about the suffering of animals.

781
00:30:08,340 --> 00:30:11,540
Many tens of millions of chickens have been,

782
00:30:11,700 --> 00:30:13,880
they say cold that's killed.

783
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:14,720
Okay.

784
00:30:14,820 --> 00:30:16,080
And guess how they're killed.

785
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,980
They're baked alive in a process called VSD

786
00:30:18,980 --> 00:30:21,600
plus, which stands for ventilation shutdown.

787
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:27,000
More than 2000 veterinarians have signed a petition

788
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:32,560
saying, um, ventilation shutdown plus is horribly cruel.

789
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,220
Now this is how far we've fallen as

790
00:30:35,220 --> 00:30:35,900
a society.

791
00:30:36,180 --> 00:30:38,920
There is a chicken inside a box that

792
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:40,580
is being baked alive as part of a

793
00:30:40,580 --> 00:30:42,280
test of this process.

794
00:30:42,420 --> 00:30:45,520
And every time I see this photo, I

795
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:47,060
am embarrassed to be a member of the

796
00:30:47,060 --> 00:30:47,680
human race.

797
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,300
Uh, what happens is, uh, they seal off

798
00:30:51,300 --> 00:30:54,200
the, uh, it's not really a barn.

799
00:30:54,380 --> 00:30:56,440
It's really, you know, these are factories.

800
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,380
They seal off the factory walls.

801
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:02,040
They pump in heat and they wait for

802
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:03,540
all these animals to die.

803
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:07,100
We have a video here of one chicken

804
00:31:07,100 --> 00:31:09,280
dying of ventilation shutdown plus.

805
00:31:09,380 --> 00:31:11,520
So when people say to me, oh, well,

806
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:12,720
there's nothing wrong with chickens.

807
00:31:12,820 --> 00:31:13,780
Chickens aren't cruel.

808
00:31:14,300 --> 00:31:16,960
You know, uh, chickens have to lay eggs.

809
00:31:17,100 --> 00:31:19,820
No, this is a massive industry.

810
00:31:20,020 --> 00:31:22,340
The majority of animals killed for food are

811
00:31:22,340 --> 00:31:22,780
chickens.

812
00:31:23,060 --> 00:31:25,540
And first of all, they grind up all

813
00:31:25,540 --> 00:31:26,500
the male chicks alive.

814
00:31:26,700 --> 00:31:28,760
They don't need male chicks in the industry.

815
00:31:28,820 --> 00:31:32,360
And now with bird flu, they are baking

816
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:35,220
by the tens of millions of these animals

817
00:31:35,220 --> 00:31:39,060
that don't even have majority of them don't

818
00:31:39,060 --> 00:31:40,100
even have bird flu.

819
00:31:40,180 --> 00:31:41,560
They've just been exposed.

820
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:46,820
So because our tax dollars automatically reimburse these

821
00:31:46,820 --> 00:31:50,720
companies for any animals that they kill, they

822
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:54,540
just kill with abandon as opposed to enacting,

823
00:31:54,540 --> 00:31:57,180
you know, biosecurity measures that they would, if

824
00:31:57,180 --> 00:31:58,640
they thought they would have to pay for

825
00:31:58,640 --> 00:31:59,180
an outbreak.

826
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,360
Uh, can you elaborate a little bit on

827
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:01,920
this, Stephanie?

828
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,880
Yes, this is extremely disturbing.

829
00:32:08,020 --> 00:32:11,300
Um, you know, the fact that we have

830
00:32:11,300 --> 00:32:14,060
created this problem, as you've stated, and now

831
00:32:14,060 --> 00:32:18,280
we're remedying it with having to mass kill

832
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,980
off these wonderful creatures.

833
00:32:21,220 --> 00:32:24,660
And really there's just no need for this

834
00:32:24,660 --> 00:32:25,900
industry, right?

835
00:32:26,340 --> 00:32:28,500
Uh, chicken meat is not healthy.

836
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,620
Chicken eggs are not healthy.

837
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,980
They're essentially, you know, and not to be

838
00:32:32,980 --> 00:32:34,980
graphic, they are the menstruation.

839
00:32:35,140 --> 00:32:38,740
They're the baby, uh, chicken, right?

840
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,580
The, when, when humans menstruate every month, this

841
00:32:41,580 --> 00:32:45,140
is their menstruation, um, where, you know, so

842
00:32:45,140 --> 00:32:46,440
that's what people are eating.

843
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,440
And that's why it's so high in cholesterol,

844
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:52,500
because everything a baby chick needs to become

845
00:32:52,500 --> 00:32:55,680
a regular chicken is inside that egg.

846
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:56,800
So everything is jam packed.

847
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,460
It's very high in fat, high in cholesterol.

848
00:32:59,220 --> 00:33:00,220
Everything is in there.

849
00:33:00,340 --> 00:33:03,380
And the fact that individuals feel that this

850
00:33:03,380 --> 00:33:04,460
is a health food and they need to

851
00:33:04,460 --> 00:33:06,860
eat that is also extremely disturbing.

852
00:33:07,540 --> 00:33:10,080
So what is PCRM doing to spread the

853
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,800
word that we are in the 21st century?

854
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,400
We do not need to eat this way.

855
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:20,560
This idea that is promulgated that you absolutely

856
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,060
have to have eggs.

857
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,500
You have be living under a rock that

858
00:33:24,500 --> 00:33:27,900
some of the top pastry restaurants in Los

859
00:33:27,900 --> 00:33:29,740
Angeles are completely vegan.

860
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,980
Their pastries are like off the charts, incredible,

861
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:38,280
decadent, gorgeous eclairs and, uh, croissant all made

862
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:39,020
without eggs.

863
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:43,420
What, what can we do to undo the

864
00:33:43,420 --> 00:33:47,660
damage of this constant pounding of this myth?

865
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:49,980
That is completely a lie.

866
00:33:50,900 --> 00:33:51,220
Exactly.

867
00:33:52,660 --> 00:33:56,540
So PCRM, uh, is that kind of steadfast

868
00:33:56,540 --> 00:34:00,600
evidence-based, uh, science, uh, fact information.

869
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,600
So when we have either individuals reaching out

870
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,020
to us or checking out our website, or

871
00:34:06,020 --> 00:34:08,860
if maybe it's healthcare providers, we have that

872
00:34:08,860 --> 00:34:12,219
evidence that you will be fine without consuming

873
00:34:12,219 --> 00:34:12,620
eggs.

874
00:34:12,639 --> 00:34:14,040
Actually, you'll be better off.

875
00:34:14,139 --> 00:34:16,540
So we have tonnes of resources on our

876
00:34:16,540 --> 00:34:19,219
website and we are really using this opportunity

877
00:34:19,219 --> 00:34:20,440
to spread the word.

878
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:25,300
Um, and, and kind of expand what we

879
00:34:25,300 --> 00:34:27,120
already have and what we already know at

880
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:31,960
PCRM kind of expand that education around the

881
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,300
detriments of eggs and the egg industry.

882
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,760
And, you know, as Kim Delgado was saying

883
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,320
here, us humans can be so cruel as

884
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:44,239
Nilo Asgarian says, it can take up to

885
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,540
eight hours to die in this vicious way.

886
00:34:47,179 --> 00:34:50,900
I mean, the idea that that is not

887
00:34:50,900 --> 00:34:55,360
taken into consideration when they talk about bird

888
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,480
flu in the media and they use the

889
00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:58,120
word cull.

890
00:34:58,520 --> 00:34:58,700
Okay.

891
00:34:58,820 --> 00:35:01,100
When you hear that word think kill and

892
00:35:01,100 --> 00:35:04,600
now think kill in a very horrible, horrible,

893
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:06,080
torturous way.

894
00:35:06,220 --> 00:35:08,780
And that's why 2000 veterinarians and it's more

895
00:35:08,780 --> 00:35:12,280
now have signed this petition saying ventilation shutdown

896
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:16,800
plus is a horribly cruel, um, manner of

897
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:17,180
death.

898
00:35:17,340 --> 00:35:20,420
It's torture and it should not be considered.

899
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,280
But when you think about the totality of

900
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,600
that and you see that, uh, our media

901
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,320
and our government do not care a whit

902
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:30,560
about that issue.

903
00:35:31,340 --> 00:35:36,600
Um, where does that leave us on a

904
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:40,140
moral perspective, Tracy, as a species and a

905
00:35:40,140 --> 00:35:40,760
society?

906
00:35:42,180 --> 00:35:44,060
Yeah, I'm not sure, but you know, I

907
00:35:44,060 --> 00:35:45,820
have, like I said, I've been living this

908
00:35:45,820 --> 00:35:50,040
lifestyle for so long and, um, I've just

909
00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,840
found that unless you're actually working to get

910
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,360
these products out, it's very difficult of your

911
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:55,740
body.

912
00:35:56,020 --> 00:35:59,320
Uh, it's very difficult for people to, um,

913
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:03,660
fathom the, the, what we feel as vegans

914
00:36:03,660 --> 00:36:07,060
to fathom, um, how we feel about animals

915
00:36:07,060 --> 00:36:08,480
and how we don't want to harm them.

916
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,480
And once we learn about the industries, we

917
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:12,800
want to get away from them.

918
00:36:13,260 --> 00:36:16,460
So, so really it's just about getting, um,

919
00:36:16,540 --> 00:36:19,540
getting the word out to people and reaching

920
00:36:19,540 --> 00:36:22,580
them on whatever, whatever level it is that

921
00:36:22,580 --> 00:36:25,680
works for them because, um, you know, animal

922
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:27,660
products in general are just terrible for the

923
00:36:27,660 --> 00:36:28,120
environment.

924
00:36:28,260 --> 00:36:29,340
They're terrible for us.

925
00:36:29,500 --> 00:36:33,180
They're terrible for our, uh, as a species

926
00:36:33,180 --> 00:36:35,500
there, you know, they're just terrible in general.

927
00:36:35,720 --> 00:36:38,900
So let's just, um, reach people on the

928
00:36:38,900 --> 00:36:41,020
level that works for them, whether it's their

929
00:36:41,020 --> 00:36:43,980
health or whether it's a concern for animals.

930
00:36:44,180 --> 00:36:46,300
So if they say they love animals, you

931
00:36:46,300 --> 00:36:49,420
can, you can ask, um, so why do

932
00:36:49,420 --> 00:36:50,940
you eat eggs if you love animals?

933
00:36:50,940 --> 00:36:54,420
Because they're, it's a cruel industry and thank

934
00:36:54,420 --> 00:36:58,500
goodness for, um, for the innovation that we've

935
00:36:58,500 --> 00:37:00,200
been experiencing lately.

936
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:02,600
Um, not only the innovation that went into

937
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,680
all those alternatives I showed that, um, of

938
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:08,020
the chefs and different people that started experimenting

939
00:37:08,020 --> 00:37:09,980
and wanting to get away from using eggs,

940
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,860
but that the product just egg is out

941
00:37:12,860 --> 00:37:17,060
is, um, is a tremendous advantage now that,

942
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,660
um, that people have an alternative and they

943
00:37:19,660 --> 00:37:20,600
can switch over.

944
00:37:20,740 --> 00:37:24,300
And so that, thank goodness that that's that,

945
00:37:24,300 --> 00:37:27,640
that we have now, we always cover whoever

946
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,540
we accept people wherever they are on the

947
00:37:30,540 --> 00:37:30,980
journey.

948
00:37:31,240 --> 00:37:33,980
And I want to go to this comment

949
00:37:33,980 --> 00:37:37,060
from this lady, Kate, become a boring vegan

950
00:37:37,060 --> 00:37:38,140
who hates food.

951
00:37:38,860 --> 00:37:41,380
Now this is one of the biggest stereotypes

952
00:37:41,380 --> 00:37:45,460
and just absolutely in my opinion.

953
00:37:45,460 --> 00:37:48,240
And Kate, again, I, we accept you wherever

954
00:37:48,240 --> 00:37:49,180
you are on the journey.

955
00:37:49,300 --> 00:37:52,000
We hope that we can convince you.

956
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:53,580
And I'm going to go back to Karen

957
00:37:53,580 --> 00:37:57,240
Lakavi, the foodie of Los Angeles.

958
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:01,120
I hope we can convince, uh, Kate that

959
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:03,100
we're not boring people who hate food.

960
00:38:03,240 --> 00:38:04,880
You know, it kind of reminds me of

961
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,400
when, uh, I used to drink alcohol and

962
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:09,360
I thought that I'm about to be 30

963
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:10,720
years sober, April 1st.

964
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:12,940
And I used to think that that was

965
00:38:12,940 --> 00:38:16,080
what made me fun at parties, little come

966
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:17,880
to find out that's what made me not

967
00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:18,620
fun at parties.

968
00:38:18,620 --> 00:38:20,840
Uh, I thought that was my solution.

969
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,000
If I had a bad day at work,

970
00:38:22,220 --> 00:38:22,700
guess what?

971
00:38:22,720 --> 00:38:24,140
It was usually the cause of my bad

972
00:38:24,140 --> 00:38:24,660
day at work.

973
00:38:25,060 --> 00:38:26,360
Um, it's the same thing.

974
00:38:26,420 --> 00:38:28,440
We think something is the solution when it's

975
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:29,220
actually the problem.

976
00:38:29,220 --> 00:38:31,940
And it's having that aha moment of no,

977
00:38:32,020 --> 00:38:33,100
this isn't helping me.

978
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,120
This isn't, you know, I thought, Oh, he

979
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:35,500
gets over.

980
00:38:35,580 --> 00:38:36,760
You're never going to have fun again, never

981
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:38,560
go to a party, never make a fool

982
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:39,080
of yourself.

983
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:40,480
Well, I make a fool of myself all

984
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,200
the time now, except I remember it very

985
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:42,480
well.

986
00:38:42,700 --> 00:38:45,920
Uh, how would you respond to Kate's comment?

987
00:38:47,220 --> 00:38:50,300
First of all, I won't eat something.

988
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,080
If it doesn't taste good, I'd rather just

989
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:52,700
not eat.

990
00:38:53,100 --> 00:38:54,800
And I grew up in New York city,

991
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,640
uh, where every amazing restaurant was there.

992
00:38:58,700 --> 00:38:59,760
And my mother was a foodie.

993
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:00,960
She would take me to everything.

994
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:02,800
You can do so many things.

995
00:39:02,820 --> 00:39:04,560
I mean, this just egg, you can make,

996
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,520
um, you know, eggplant Parmesan, you know, my,

997
00:39:07,580 --> 00:39:09,580
my uncle just made some the other night

998
00:39:09,580 --> 00:39:10,680
and it was delicious.

999
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:12,340
And he used just egg instead of egg,

1000
00:39:12,380 --> 00:39:14,880
you know, with the breading, uh, there's in

1001
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,780
baking, like, uh, there's so many things that

1002
00:39:17,780 --> 00:39:18,400
you can do.

1003
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,280
And even without the just egg, just in

1004
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:27,060
general, there's so many great restaurants, so many

1005
00:39:27,060 --> 00:39:30,740
great cooking classes, so many great recipes go

1006
00:39:30,740 --> 00:39:31,640
on, on chain TV.

1007
00:39:32,300 --> 00:39:33,960
I have a couple of segments as a

1008
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,660
matter of fact, uh, can make, sorry.

1009
00:39:37,020 --> 00:39:39,160
Uh, you can make all kinds of delicious

1010
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:39,600
things.

1011
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:41,780
You just need to learn quite frankly, I

1012
00:39:41,780 --> 00:39:43,940
think it tastes better than, than animals.

1013
00:39:44,240 --> 00:39:45,240
I really do.

1014
00:39:45,540 --> 00:39:48,280
Um, it's cleaner, it tastes cleaner.

1015
00:39:48,420 --> 00:39:49,600
The flavours are better.

1016
00:39:50,140 --> 00:39:51,840
Your body feels better.

1017
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:52,380
Everything.

1018
00:39:52,660 --> 00:39:58,020
It's just, I just cannot imagine being, uh,

1019
00:39:58,020 --> 00:40:00,940
going back to eating animals and Tina there.

1020
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:02,180
I totally agree with you.

1021
00:40:02,260 --> 00:40:03,820
It is fun to be vegan.

1022
00:40:04,140 --> 00:40:05,460
It is so fun.

1023
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,160
And there's so many new foods that are

1024
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:07,660
coming out.

1025
00:40:07,660 --> 00:40:09,800
Jackfruit, which has been around for a number

1026
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:11,780
of years now that used to just be

1027
00:40:11,780 --> 00:40:13,820
in the Indian, uh, restaurants.

1028
00:40:13,940 --> 00:40:15,300
You'd see it, which I used to love

1029
00:40:15,300 --> 00:40:16,600
to go just there for that.

1030
00:40:16,700 --> 00:40:17,780
Now it's everywhere.

1031
00:40:18,300 --> 00:40:20,080
There's so many things.

1032
00:40:20,380 --> 00:40:22,820
Uh, I love cooking for my friends, Jane,

1033
00:40:22,940 --> 00:40:25,420
I love cooking for you, uh, and making

1034
00:40:25,420 --> 00:40:27,840
an experimenting with you guys and just making

1035
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:28,900
all kinds of new things.

1036
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,700
And you are one of the top vegan

1037
00:40:31,700 --> 00:40:34,240
chefs in Los Angeles and always so generous

1038
00:40:34,240 --> 00:40:35,120
with your time.

1039
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:37,380
And you know, I had taken this out

1040
00:40:37,380 --> 00:40:38,880
because I was just in my fridge.

1041
00:40:38,980 --> 00:40:40,060
I wasn't in my fridge.

1042
00:40:40,100 --> 00:40:41,660
I was looking in my fridge and you

1043
00:40:41,660 --> 00:40:42,620
know, what can I use?

1044
00:40:42,720 --> 00:40:45,540
I had this, of course I use it

1045
00:40:45,540 --> 00:40:46,560
all the time.

1046
00:40:46,620 --> 00:40:47,940
It's so fantastic.

1047
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:48,440
There's nothing.

1048
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:49,440
Oh, I want scrambled eggs.

1049
00:40:49,620 --> 00:40:49,820
Boom.

1050
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,520
And, uh, I had scrambled eggs with some

1051
00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:54,100
German bread.

1052
00:40:54,220 --> 00:40:56,900
You know, the really intense German bread the

1053
00:40:56,900 --> 00:40:58,180
other day was fantastic.

1054
00:40:58,580 --> 00:41:00,960
And then I found this, I have this

1055
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:01,460
as well.

1056
00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:03,260
Um, tell us about this.

1057
00:41:03,340 --> 00:41:04,920
What do you know about this?

1058
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:06,640
Tracy Childs.

1059
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,560
Yeah, that's, that's a good old school egg

1060
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:10,020
replacer.

1061
00:41:10,700 --> 00:41:13,620
And, um, I've used that for years too.

1062
00:41:13,900 --> 00:41:16,500
That is actually made with starch.

1063
00:41:16,500 --> 00:41:18,220
And I had that in my, in my

1064
00:41:18,220 --> 00:41:21,240
little, um, demo thing here with starch.

1065
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:21,600
Yes.

1066
00:41:21,620 --> 00:41:24,020
You can, uh, use any kind of starch,

1067
00:41:24,140 --> 00:41:25,680
but you can also buy these products.

1068
00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:27,300
It also has a little bit of leavening

1069
00:41:27,300 --> 00:41:30,840
in it, like a baking, um, powder, but

1070
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,940
it's, um, that's, but starch is a good

1071
00:41:33,940 --> 00:41:34,360
binder.

1072
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:35,300
So think about it.

1073
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:38,180
If you add water to starch, you know,

1074
00:41:38,260 --> 00:41:42,760
corn starch, tapioca starch, arrowroot starch, any of

1075
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:44,200
that, if you add some water to it

1076
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:48,200
and start, start us mixing up with your

1077
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,600
fork, you're going to notice that it's becoming

1078
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:52,680
very egg-like and it's, it's, it will

1079
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:53,900
help things stick together.

1080
00:41:53,980 --> 00:41:56,500
It's that's my go-to for my loaves.

1081
00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,800
I make a, um, a vegan loaf that

1082
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,680
normally would, a vegetarian loaf normally would have

1083
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,480
had eggs in it or a, or a

1084
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,660
vegan burger would have normally, the recipe would

1085
00:42:06,660 --> 00:42:07,880
normally have had eggs in it.

1086
00:42:08,060 --> 00:42:09,040
Well, you know what?

1087
00:42:09,060 --> 00:42:10,320
You don't need the eggs.

1088
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:12,600
Eggs are just, like I said, they're just

1089
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,680
so old school, so archaic, so not needed.

1090
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:17,860
You know, it was what people had a

1091
00:42:17,860 --> 00:42:19,700
lot of back then, you know, in the

1092
00:42:19,700 --> 00:42:21,540
days when these recipes were created.

1093
00:42:21,720 --> 00:42:23,820
And so people think, Oh, the rest, it's

1094
00:42:23,820 --> 00:42:24,720
a time old recipe.

1095
00:42:24,780 --> 00:42:25,820
This is the way I make a cake.

1096
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:26,620
Well, you know what?

1097
00:42:27,020 --> 00:42:28,640
That's just an old fashion cake.

1098
00:42:28,780 --> 00:42:30,780
You don't, you can veganize your cakes and

1099
00:42:30,780 --> 00:42:31,540
make them delicious.

1100
00:42:31,540 --> 00:42:33,840
And just like Karen said, it's going to

1101
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:34,480
taste better.

1102
00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:35,880
That's the thing.

1103
00:42:35,940 --> 00:42:38,140
That's the key is that when you get

1104
00:42:38,140 --> 00:42:40,700
the cruelty out, your food actually tastes better

1105
00:42:40,700 --> 00:42:43,180
and it's not going to be boring.

1106
00:42:43,380 --> 00:42:45,940
Believe me, you know, all the spices, all

1107
00:42:45,940 --> 00:42:47,640
the things that they put into animal foods

1108
00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:48,440
to make them taste good.

1109
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:48,820
Guess what?

1110
00:42:48,860 --> 00:42:49,800
Those are plants.

1111
00:42:51,140 --> 00:42:51,820
Yeah.

1112
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:53,980
And ethical herbs.

1113
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:55,100
Wow.

1114
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:59,260
So many wonderful vegan egg options than when

1115
00:42:59,260 --> 00:43:01,720
I first went vegan 12 years ago.

1116
00:43:01,820 --> 00:43:03,160
And that's really true.

1117
00:43:03,240 --> 00:43:04,760
Like there's so many of these products.

1118
00:43:04,900 --> 00:43:07,600
I'm about to head to Natural Products Expo

1119
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:11,100
West, which is the largest natural products expo

1120
00:43:11,100 --> 00:43:13,720
in the world at the Anaheim Convention Centre.

1121
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:17,600
Thousands and thousands and thousands of different products.

1122
00:43:17,980 --> 00:43:19,640
And Just Egg is going to be there

1123
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:21,920
and a whole bunch of other egg replacement

1124
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:27,500
companies are going to be there celebrating all

1125
00:43:27,500 --> 00:43:28,280
of this stuff.

1126
00:43:28,740 --> 00:43:30,000
And so, you know, what I would say

1127
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:33,040
to Kate is we don't ride horses to

1128
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:34,500
get from coast to coast anymore.

1129
00:43:34,660 --> 00:43:36,120
There's cars and there's planes.

1130
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:40,440
You know, we have modern technology that we

1131
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:41,800
rely on all the time.

1132
00:43:41,980 --> 00:43:44,680
And we have to realise that that modern

1133
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:48,600
technology also applies to food in the sense

1134
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:52,220
that, yes, since the dawn of time, you

1135
00:43:52,220 --> 00:43:55,080
could have used flax seeds back in probably

1136
00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:57,360
the mediaeval era in place of eggs.

1137
00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:00,700
But people have their demands.

1138
00:44:00,820 --> 00:44:03,080
They want something that looks like a scrambled

1139
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:03,560
egg.

1140
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:04,780
We made it.

1141
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,520
I didn't make it, but Eat Just, Josh

1142
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:08,960
Tetrick made it.

1143
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:09,300
OK.

1144
00:44:09,720 --> 00:44:13,820
And so you can still have your eggs

1145
00:44:13,820 --> 00:44:15,060
and eat them too.

1146
00:44:15,240 --> 00:44:16,440
You can have your cake and eat it

1147
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:16,760
too.

1148
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,400
I mean, the resistance.

1149
00:44:20,740 --> 00:44:21,940
Here's what I say.

1150
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:26,480
The first step to realising you're brainwashed and

1151
00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:28,860
getting out of being brainwashed is to say,

1152
00:44:29,300 --> 00:44:31,260
oh, maybe I'm brainwashed.

1153
00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:34,420
Maybe I'm repeating somebody else's talking points.

1154
00:44:34,860 --> 00:44:37,060
Maybe this isn't my own original idea.

1155
00:44:37,500 --> 00:44:41,060
Maybe I'm just conditioned to behave this way.

1156
00:44:41,240 --> 00:44:43,760
And that's why I'm saying what I am

1157
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:48,280
saying, whether it's bacon or all vegans are

1158
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:48,680
boring.

1159
00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:52,900
Maybe I'm the person who's being cheated.

1160
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:56,580
As one very wise person said, we're all

1161
00:44:56,580 --> 00:44:59,060
being factory farmed, not just the animals who

1162
00:44:59,060 --> 00:44:59,700
are being tortured.

1163
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:01,820
The humans are being tortured.

1164
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:04,740
So you have 43 percent of the population

1165
00:45:04,740 --> 00:45:05,800
right now, which is obese.

1166
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:06,660
OK.

1167
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,600
Seventy three percent overweight or obese.

1168
00:45:10,180 --> 00:45:12,800
And now they're selling us the drugs to

1169
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:13,440
lose the weight.

1170
00:45:13,700 --> 00:45:15,280
So they make money on both sides.

1171
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,540
Do you want to comment on that, Stephanie

1172
00:45:17,540 --> 00:45:20,060
McBurnett of Physician Committee for Responsible Medicine?

1173
00:45:23,570 --> 00:45:24,730
I have worked.

1174
00:45:24,810 --> 00:45:26,210
I've been very lucky to work in the

1175
00:45:26,210 --> 00:45:29,870
research department at PCRM, where we work with

1176
00:45:29,870 --> 00:45:32,970
individuals with type two diabetes, transition them to

1177
00:45:32,970 --> 00:45:34,910
a plant based diet, and then we track

1178
00:45:34,910 --> 00:45:38,010
their insulin resistance and insulin sensitivity.

1179
00:45:38,730 --> 00:45:43,450
And every single person who has transitioned has

1180
00:45:43,450 --> 00:45:45,950
said their mind has been blown by the

1181
00:45:45,950 --> 00:45:48,230
amount of options of food, that they were

1182
00:45:48,230 --> 00:45:51,710
stuck eating the same four things, right?

1183
00:45:51,990 --> 00:45:54,730
Eggs, chicken, beef, pork.

1184
00:45:55,090 --> 00:45:57,210
And now that that is out of their

1185
00:45:57,210 --> 00:45:59,630
diet, it's almost as if the whole world

1186
00:45:59,630 --> 00:46:01,870
has opened up and they're eating things they've

1187
00:46:01,870 --> 00:46:05,210
never even thought about or known about.

1188
00:46:05,310 --> 00:46:07,830
And so it's anything but boring is what

1189
00:46:07,830 --> 00:46:09,210
I'll have to say about that.

1190
00:46:09,290 --> 00:46:11,970
But it is I find every single person

1191
00:46:11,970 --> 00:46:16,090
is just can't can't talk enough about all

1192
00:46:16,090 --> 00:46:18,950
the different quinoa, different foods, bulgur that they're

1193
00:46:18,950 --> 00:46:20,650
eating that they didn't even know about, different

1194
00:46:20,650 --> 00:46:21,130
beans.

1195
00:46:22,070 --> 00:46:23,550
And so that's kind of the one comment

1196
00:46:23,550 --> 00:46:27,430
I have on that and about the obesity

1197
00:46:27,430 --> 00:46:27,850
rates.

1198
00:46:27,970 --> 00:46:30,450
Yes, it is just kind of getting worse

1199
00:46:30,450 --> 00:46:30,850
and worse.

1200
00:46:30,910 --> 00:46:32,790
And I think it's tied in with this

1201
00:46:32,790 --> 00:46:37,030
food industry, just kind of being tied to

1202
00:46:37,030 --> 00:46:39,310
that they're trying to make a greater profit.

1203
00:46:39,490 --> 00:46:41,330
And they're they don't care about our health,

1204
00:46:41,450 --> 00:46:42,750
they care about profit.

1205
00:46:42,890 --> 00:46:45,030
And there's the egg industry that has gone

1206
00:46:45,030 --> 00:46:47,890
so far as to get into the research

1207
00:46:47,890 --> 00:46:52,170
and try to manipulate the research that is

1208
00:46:52,170 --> 00:46:53,210
out about eggs.

1209
00:46:53,290 --> 00:46:57,830
But it's all getting pushed away by actual

1210
00:46:57,830 --> 00:47:01,030
real research that doesn't have any influence.

1211
00:47:01,490 --> 00:47:03,530
Things are coming to the surface just in

1212
00:47:03,530 --> 00:47:06,870
2023, a meta-analysis came out that showed

1213
00:47:06,870 --> 00:47:10,470
every hundred milligrammes of cholesterol of dietary cholesterol

1214
00:47:10,470 --> 00:47:13,270
per day, increase the risk of type two

1215
00:47:13,270 --> 00:47:15,530
diabetes by 5%.

1216
00:47:15,530 --> 00:47:18,130
So 100 milligrammes is half of an egg.

1217
00:47:18,250 --> 00:47:20,350
So if you're eating an egg a few

1218
00:47:20,350 --> 00:47:22,870
times a week, you're increasing your risk of

1219
00:47:22,870 --> 00:47:23,530
type two diabetes.

1220
00:47:23,690 --> 00:47:25,550
And this is, this is just, there's two

1221
00:47:25,550 --> 00:47:28,850
different studies that came out in 2021, 2019,

1222
00:47:28,850 --> 00:47:31,210
there was a study published in JAMA showing

1223
00:47:31,210 --> 00:47:33,470
that just three to four eggs per week,

1224
00:47:33,550 --> 00:47:36,890
increase your risk of cardiovascular disease and all

1225
00:47:36,890 --> 00:47:37,750
cause mortality.

1226
00:47:38,270 --> 00:47:39,650
So the research is there.

1227
00:47:40,730 --> 00:47:42,570
We just have to, we just have to

1228
00:47:42,570 --> 00:47:43,090
follow it.

1229
00:47:43,210 --> 00:47:45,810
I think, and this is, this is nature's

1230
00:47:45,810 --> 00:47:47,350
way of telling us we don't need to

1231
00:47:47,350 --> 00:47:48,330
be eating eggs anymore.

1232
00:47:49,170 --> 00:47:51,170
And let me just ask you about a

1233
00:47:51,170 --> 00:47:52,450
fact that a lot of people are not

1234
00:47:52,450 --> 00:47:54,270
aware of, and that is that there's no

1235
00:47:54,270 --> 00:47:55,590
cholesterol in vegan products.

1236
00:47:55,950 --> 00:47:58,290
If you look at Just Egg, it says

1237
00:47:58,290 --> 00:48:02,670
right here, zero cholesterol, no, no cholesterol.

1238
00:48:03,030 --> 00:48:05,550
And I always tell people, take a look

1239
00:48:05,550 --> 00:48:06,350
at this one too.

1240
00:48:06,470 --> 00:48:07,690
I didn't even have to check.

1241
00:48:08,170 --> 00:48:09,230
Zero cholesterol.

1242
00:48:09,810 --> 00:48:13,030
Every single vegan product has zero cholesterol.

1243
00:48:13,770 --> 00:48:17,870
Can you explain that fact that is so

1244
00:48:17,870 --> 00:48:20,930
crucial when heart disease is the leading killer?

1245
00:48:21,370 --> 00:48:21,910
Okay.

1246
00:48:23,090 --> 00:48:23,410
Yes.

1247
00:48:23,550 --> 00:48:26,590
So cholesterol, dietary cholesterol is linked to heart

1248
00:48:26,590 --> 00:48:28,050
disease and type two diabetes.

1249
00:48:28,570 --> 00:48:32,010
It's mostly found in eggs and enamel products

1250
00:48:32,010 --> 00:48:34,250
because it isn't found in plants.

1251
00:48:35,070 --> 00:48:38,190
So anything that's vegan is already off the

1252
00:48:38,190 --> 00:48:39,870
bat, not going to have cholesterol, which is

1253
00:48:39,870 --> 00:48:41,730
going to bring down your total cholesterol.

1254
00:48:42,510 --> 00:48:45,650
Also what's linked to our cholesterol levels in

1255
00:48:45,650 --> 00:48:47,630
humans is saturated fat intake.

1256
00:48:48,330 --> 00:48:52,550
And the highest amounts, the highest foods with

1257
00:48:52,550 --> 00:48:55,070
the highest amounts of saturated fat are actually

1258
00:48:55,070 --> 00:49:00,030
dairy and cheese and eggs and animal products.

1259
00:49:00,230 --> 00:49:00,370
Right?

1260
00:49:00,510 --> 00:49:02,750
So you see this link of not only

1261
00:49:02,750 --> 00:49:06,970
is the cholesterol that's hurting your heart in

1262
00:49:06,970 --> 00:49:10,170
animal products, but it's also the increased saturated

1263
00:49:10,170 --> 00:49:11,150
fat as well.

1264
00:49:12,230 --> 00:49:12,470
Wow.

1265
00:49:12,630 --> 00:49:15,850
So, you know, for all of these reasons,

1266
00:49:16,250 --> 00:49:17,810
it's a no brainer.

1267
00:49:18,610 --> 00:49:21,690
What kills me is that despite the fact

1268
00:49:21,690 --> 00:49:23,910
that this is a no brainer, despite the

1269
00:49:23,910 --> 00:49:26,490
fact that we have all of these alternatives

1270
00:49:26,490 --> 00:49:30,710
that we've been showing you, bananas, applesauce, chia

1271
00:49:30,710 --> 00:49:34,530
seeds, flax seeds, silken tofu, aquafaba, vegan yoghurt,

1272
00:49:34,770 --> 00:49:36,910
apple cider vinegar, and more.

1273
00:49:37,130 --> 00:49:39,810
And then for those who want the egg

1274
00:49:39,810 --> 00:49:43,730
experience, whether it be an omelette like this

1275
00:49:43,730 --> 00:49:47,830
one or scrambled eggs, you have just egg.

1276
00:49:48,230 --> 00:49:51,810
And that's why their campaign says, what egg

1277
00:49:51,810 --> 00:49:52,530
shortage?

1278
00:49:52,750 --> 00:49:54,330
There's never been a better time to try

1279
00:49:54,330 --> 00:49:55,510
plant-based eggs.

1280
00:49:55,850 --> 00:49:57,250
By the way, if you want to try,

1281
00:49:57,870 --> 00:50:02,170
you can just go to www.ju.st,

1282
00:50:03,030 --> 00:50:05,230
put in your email and you will get

1283
00:50:05,230 --> 00:50:05,950
a discount.

1284
00:50:06,170 --> 00:50:08,610
And as you've heard on the show today,

1285
00:50:08,750 --> 00:50:11,110
there are so many places you can buy

1286
00:50:11,110 --> 00:50:11,830
it online.

1287
00:50:12,370 --> 00:50:17,450
You know, whatever your preference is for shopping,

1288
00:50:17,830 --> 00:50:21,510
it's widely available and you could get it

1289
00:50:21,510 --> 00:50:22,130
like that.

1290
00:50:22,130 --> 00:50:24,310
Whether it's, you want to go on Amazon,

1291
00:50:24,630 --> 00:50:27,650
Whole Foods, Kroger, all of these places that

1292
00:50:27,650 --> 00:50:30,670
were mentioned by the CEO of Eat Just,

1293
00:50:31,110 --> 00:50:33,710
it's there, take advantage of it, give it

1294
00:50:33,710 --> 00:50:34,070
a try.

1295
00:50:34,170 --> 00:50:37,070
And I hope Kate will also give it

1296
00:50:37,070 --> 00:50:37,470
a try.

1297
00:50:37,850 --> 00:50:41,130
Final thoughts, starting with our chef, Karen Lacava.

1298
00:50:43,090 --> 00:50:44,210
Final thoughts.

1299
00:50:44,730 --> 00:50:45,730
You don't need eggs.

1300
00:50:45,910 --> 00:50:47,990
You don't need animal products to have delicious

1301
00:50:47,990 --> 00:50:48,490
food.

1302
00:50:48,490 --> 00:50:49,670
So why do it?

1303
00:50:49,810 --> 00:50:50,790
Why harm the environment?

1304
00:50:51,050 --> 00:50:52,310
Why harm the animals?

1305
00:50:52,510 --> 00:50:53,970
Why harm yourself?

1306
00:50:55,370 --> 00:50:57,210
And have fun experimenting.

1307
00:50:57,350 --> 00:50:58,510
Who doesn't like to have fun?

1308
00:50:58,610 --> 00:51:00,410
You can have some friends over and try

1309
00:51:00,410 --> 00:51:01,050
new recipes.

1310
00:51:01,970 --> 00:51:03,430
Just do it, do it.

1311
00:51:03,630 --> 00:51:05,130
Pasta, you can do pasta with all kinds

1312
00:51:05,130 --> 00:51:05,570
of vegetables.

1313
00:51:05,790 --> 00:51:06,590
There's so much.

1314
00:51:07,190 --> 00:51:07,950
Have fun with it.

1315
00:51:08,910 --> 00:51:09,830
Well said.

1316
00:51:10,210 --> 00:51:10,930
All right.

1317
00:51:10,970 --> 00:51:13,390
We're going to go straight out to our

1318
00:51:13,390 --> 00:51:15,210
San Diego premiere chef.

1319
00:51:16,350 --> 00:51:18,070
Hey, I have a few things.

1320
00:51:18,210 --> 00:51:18,310
Yeah.

1321
00:51:18,430 --> 00:51:20,790
So the thing I remember when I used

1322
00:51:20,790 --> 00:51:23,950
to use eggs was that I was kind

1323
00:51:23,950 --> 00:51:24,710
of scared, right?

1324
00:51:24,730 --> 00:51:28,290
I knew besides the bird flu, which wasn't

1325
00:51:28,290 --> 00:51:31,590
happening back then in the nineties, you know,

1326
00:51:31,670 --> 00:51:33,850
there was salmonella in eggs, right?

1327
00:51:33,970 --> 00:51:35,830
And people were getting the, you know, a

1328
00:51:35,830 --> 00:51:36,970
lot of people who get the flu are

1329
00:51:36,970 --> 00:51:40,490
actually getting salmonella poisoning, actually.

1330
00:51:40,490 --> 00:51:43,230
So just getting the eggs, getting the animal

1331
00:51:43,230 --> 00:51:44,770
products out of your kitchen is going to

1332
00:51:44,770 --> 00:51:46,010
make your kitchen safer.

1333
00:51:46,190 --> 00:51:47,950
It's going to make restaurants safer.

1334
00:51:48,210 --> 00:51:50,770
Using just eggs as a safer product, for

1335
00:51:50,770 --> 00:51:51,170
sure.

1336
00:51:51,870 --> 00:51:53,870
Animal products are just plain dirty.

1337
00:51:54,070 --> 00:51:57,070
The whole raising of them is dirty.

1338
00:51:57,230 --> 00:51:58,850
The raising of plants is much cleaner.

1339
00:51:59,370 --> 00:52:00,970
Having plants in your kitchen is a much

1340
00:52:00,970 --> 00:52:02,130
cleaner way to live.

1341
00:52:02,670 --> 00:52:04,650
So just do it.

1342
00:52:04,850 --> 00:52:06,430
It's not a problem.

1343
00:52:06,570 --> 00:52:08,150
Once you get used to the idea and

1344
00:52:08,150 --> 00:52:10,630
start looking around, you can replace them and

1345
00:52:10,630 --> 00:52:12,590
just be that much happier and that much

1346
00:52:12,590 --> 00:52:13,790
safer and that much healthier.

1347
00:52:14,970 --> 00:52:16,010
Well said.

1348
00:52:16,270 --> 00:52:20,410
And we're going to go to Stephanie McBurnett

1349
00:52:20,410 --> 00:52:22,710
with Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine.

1350
00:52:22,850 --> 00:52:23,610
Your final thoughts.

1351
00:52:24,410 --> 00:52:24,630
Yeah.

1352
00:52:24,710 --> 00:52:27,370
So I think we've cracked the code on

1353
00:52:27,370 --> 00:52:28,510
the egg crisis, right?

1354
00:52:28,590 --> 00:52:32,270
And use this as a golden opportunity as

1355
00:52:32,270 --> 00:52:33,950
our friends and family.

1356
00:52:34,110 --> 00:52:36,370
And even at the supermarket, you hear these

1357
00:52:36,370 --> 00:52:38,370
conversations about egg prices.

1358
00:52:38,890 --> 00:52:40,550
You can also come in and say, well,

1359
00:52:40,550 --> 00:52:41,750
we really don't need them.

1360
00:52:42,090 --> 00:52:43,570
They're not good for our health.

1361
00:52:43,730 --> 00:52:45,330
And here's some replacements.

1362
00:52:45,970 --> 00:52:48,130
And I will just add that my favourite

1363
00:52:48,130 --> 00:52:50,110
thing to make with just egg is a

1364
00:52:50,110 --> 00:52:50,450
quiche.

1365
00:52:51,310 --> 00:52:54,370
Put some hash browns and then just egg

1366
00:52:54,370 --> 00:52:55,250
and veggies on top.

1367
00:52:56,050 --> 00:52:58,010
Well, I hope you come back and make

1368
00:52:58,010 --> 00:52:58,530
that for us.

1369
00:52:58,590 --> 00:52:59,690
We're going to stay on top of this

1370
00:52:59,690 --> 00:53:02,790
story because I do believe this is a

1371
00:53:02,790 --> 00:53:03,510
turning point.

1372
00:53:03,810 --> 00:53:06,550
You heard Josh Tetrick, the CEO and founder

1373
00:53:06,550 --> 00:53:09,470
of Eat Just, the maker of Just Egg,

1374
00:53:09,550 --> 00:53:12,230
say that his sales are skyrocketing.

1375
00:53:12,570 --> 00:53:14,310
So people, and I've seen it myself.

1376
00:53:14,310 --> 00:53:15,930
I was shopping the other day at a

1377
00:53:15,930 --> 00:53:18,470
supermarket and I saw somebody staring at an

1378
00:53:18,470 --> 00:53:22,210
empty counter with a couple of egg cartons

1379
00:53:22,210 --> 00:53:23,910
and then this big space.

1380
00:53:23,910 --> 00:53:25,190
And you know what I said?

1381
00:53:25,650 --> 00:53:26,870
Try Just Egg.

1382
00:53:27,730 --> 00:53:31,530
I do it because I'm doing that person

1383
00:53:31,530 --> 00:53:32,010
a favour.

1384
00:53:32,230 --> 00:53:35,090
They may not be aware of this alternative.

1385
00:53:35,890 --> 00:53:38,130
And so I urge everybody to get it,

1386
00:53:38,210 --> 00:53:40,190
whether you get it online, Amazon, or you

1387
00:53:40,190 --> 00:53:41,370
get it at Whole Foods, or you get

1388
00:53:41,370 --> 00:53:42,970
it at Kroger, or you get it at

1389
00:53:42,970 --> 00:53:45,290
any of the other places where it's available.

1390
00:53:45,650 --> 00:53:48,210
Try it and share out this video to

1391
00:53:48,210 --> 00:53:49,530
spread the word as well.

1392
00:53:50,190 --> 00:53:54,110
Unchained TV, which is our nonprofit free streaming

1393
00:53:54,110 --> 00:53:58,570
television network, was created by me because I

1394
00:53:58,570 --> 00:54:00,630
was in mainstream media for 30 years and

1395
00:54:00,630 --> 00:54:02,190
I saw that they're not talking about this.

1396
00:54:02,510 --> 00:54:04,130
You don't need somebody to knock on your

1397
00:54:04,130 --> 00:54:07,030
door and say, don't talk about the egg

1398
00:54:07,030 --> 00:54:10,110
replacers when you're seeing the TV commercials that

1399
00:54:10,110 --> 00:54:12,910
keep the lights on filled with meat, dairy,

1400
00:54:13,070 --> 00:54:14,950
and eggs and pharmaceuticals.

1401
00:54:15,370 --> 00:54:18,030
So we're really trying to get out the

1402
00:54:18,030 --> 00:54:18,370
truth.

1403
00:54:18,510 --> 00:54:20,890
So you can help us by sharing out

1404
00:54:20,890 --> 00:54:21,490
this video.

1405
00:54:21,690 --> 00:54:25,150
You can also help us by becoming part

1406
00:54:25,150 --> 00:54:28,830
of the team by downloading Unchained TV, which

1407
00:54:28,830 --> 00:54:32,650
again, we are a 501c3 nonprofit run by

1408
00:54:32,650 --> 00:54:36,330
volunteers like Tracy Childs and Karen LaCava and

1409
00:54:36,330 --> 00:54:36,850
myself.

1410
00:54:37,270 --> 00:54:39,890
None of us take a salary.

1411
00:54:40,130 --> 00:54:42,630
We're just here to try to wake people

1412
00:54:42,630 --> 00:54:44,090
up and save the planet.

1413
00:54:44,290 --> 00:54:46,410
We didn't even get to the environmental benefits

1414
00:54:46,410 --> 00:54:47,550
of a plant-based diet.

1415
00:54:47,730 --> 00:54:50,330
You can reduce your greenhouse gas emissions footprint

1416
00:54:50,330 --> 00:54:52,590
by 75% by going plant-based.

1417
00:54:52,730 --> 00:54:54,290
So it's a vegan Netflix.

1418
00:54:54,610 --> 00:54:54,870
Okay.

1419
00:54:54,890 --> 00:54:56,510
That's the craziest thing I've ever heard.

1420
00:54:56,510 --> 00:54:57,750
I love Unchained TV.

1421
00:54:59,070 --> 00:55:00,730
Your life will change.

1422
00:55:00,970 --> 00:55:01,910
It's just that easy.

1423
00:55:02,230 --> 00:55:04,730
Unchained TV has all sorts of content for

1424
00:55:04,730 --> 00:55:05,230
everybody.

1425
00:55:05,610 --> 00:55:07,650
Unchained TV changed my life.

1426
00:55:07,890 --> 00:55:10,790
Unchained TV is crushing it.

1427
00:55:10,910 --> 00:55:12,470
I love Unchained TV.

1428
00:55:12,670 --> 00:55:14,490
Unchained TV is my go-to.

1429
00:55:14,970 --> 00:55:15,610
Unchained TV.

1430
00:55:15,990 --> 00:55:16,570
Who knew?

1431
00:55:17,210 --> 00:55:19,150
Unchained baby, yay!

1432
00:55:22,150 --> 00:55:25,170
This episode was brought to you by Unchained
