#155: Making Beans Cool Again with Tyler Mayoras
“I wish people knew the value of beans.” -Tyler Mayoras
Tyler Mayoras is not new to forgoing meat, he was vegetarian for 10 years early in his life. When he went plant-based for environmental reasons, not only was it easier than he thought it was going to be, but he had some unexpected benefits! Being in the food and ag sector for several years, he was shocked when he learned about the emissions produced by raising animals for food and it inspired him to make changes in his own life. That eventually took him down an entrepreneurial path.
In this episode of Veggie Doctor Radio, I interview Tyler Mayoras about his plant-based journey and what led him to start Cool Beans.
We discuss:
His plant-based journey
What surprised him the most about going plant-based
Why he is so passionate about beans
What food diversity means to him
What he means by the 4th wave of the vegan movement
Other ways to become more sustainable and eco-friendly in our food system
How he co-founded Cool Beans
What he wishes more people knew
The personal habit he is most proud of
