Eat Just, Inc.
Eat Just, Inc. is a San Francisco-area food technology company best known for JUST Egg, a plant-based scrambled egg made from mung bean protein, and GOOD Meat, the first cultivated meat product cleared for sale anywhere in the world. Founded in 2011 by Josh Tetrick and Josh Balk, the company has raised more than $850 million to push affordable, animal-free protein into mainstream grocery aisles, restaurants, and - now - U.S. retail meat cases under the Just Meat brand.
Josh Tetrick
Josh Tetrick is the co-founder and CEO of Eat Just, Inc., the San Francisco-based food technology company behind JUST Egg (a mung bean-based egg substitute) and GOOD Meat (the world's first commercially sold cultivated chicken). Starting with $37,000 of personal capital in 2011, he has raised over $456 million to build a company that simultaneously cracked the plant-based egg market and won the world's first regulatory approval for lab-grown meat in Singapore in 2020. A former Fulbright Scholar, UN initiative leader, and Cornell-educated lawyer turned food disruptor, Tetrick has made it his life's work to prove that removing animals from the food system doesn't mean sacrificing flavor or scale.
