Notes:
21 pages., Online via AgriMarketing.com., Announcement of results of an online survey among more than 1,800 U.S. consumers during late 2019. Findings suggested "widespread consumer confusion regarding the ingredient composition and purported benefits of plant-based fake meat products."

The PowerPoint presentation and accompanying news release provide statics on responses to specific questions.
