This month, Impossible Foods is embarking on a mission to help young Americans build better dietary habits and tackle the climate crisis by introducing plant-based meat at school cafeterias. To support its goal, Impossible Foods secured a Child Nutrition (CN) label—an accreditation from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA)—which allows its Impossible Burger products, both patties and bulk, to be served for breakfast and lunch in K-12 schools nationwide. Every year, schools serve approximately 5 billion lunches and 2.4 billion breakfasts to children, many of which include a variety of animal products. Impossible Foods’ new CN label allows it to introduce its plant-based meat products to meet young people’s nutritional requirements and help them to make better choices for themselves, animals, and the environment.
