So...Daiya jjust got bought.
By Otsuka.
Opinions? I'm interested in how you feel/think based on Otsuka's other interests. Animal testing, etc.

(113,130 posts)They manufacture Abilify, among other things, so yes, I imagine they do some animal testing since there is not yet a reliable non animal model for medication research. When there is, I will be among the first to applaud it.
Either it's a conglomerate snapping up a small cash (non dairy) cow or they were interested in the company and its non dairy "dairy" products. Lactose intolerance is 90%-95% across Asia and non dairy alternatives to things like ice cream could generate a huge amount of revenue for them.

Daiya's vegan pizzas are awesome. Not quite as good as Tofurky's, but close.
I propose a law saying Gardein can't be sold to anybody.
If they're bad people, or Republicans, or Trumplings -- I do not want to know. I live on Gardein.
