Reddit didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment. According to Rathschmidt, “We’ll no longer comment on hearsay, unsubstantiated claims, or baseless accusations from The Verge. We’ll be in touch as corrections are needed.”

That’s hilarious. Can’t say I’m surprised by the hostility – the articles from The Verge seem to be very favorable towards the protestors, third-party apps, etc.

I doubt anyone’s under the impression that Tyson is doing this for anything other than greed/capitalism. But I’ll be curious to see how well (or not well) this new product does. I can’t imagine that most vegans will want to buy this; is the casual/plant based/curious market large enough for the product to do “well”?

Would that account for edited comments, as well? I see others are talking about comments that they edited (not deleted) being restored to a prior version.

ooh boy
