Animal News You Can Use: Save Dough with Veggies!

TIME reports this week on a new study showing how much money you save by choosing vegetarian foods. And what better time to put it to the test than Vegetarian Awareness Month? See what my coworker Eddie Garza has to say about that on FOX this week.

While vegetarian foods can save consumers money, they can also make a lot of money. Some smart meat companies recognize this and haveĀ already moved into the meat-free foods market. And Impossible Foods, the makers of a soon-to-be-released plant-based burger just raised $108 million in investment.
