Beyond Meat's

A Kinder Plate

Simon could’ve been dinner. We gave him bigger plans. A Kinder Plate trades the usual guilt trip for something more human. Giving rescued animals names, dreams, and a future people actually want to root for.

02 / Strategic Thinking

Problem → Insight → Idea

The Challenge

Animal-welfare ads guilt people into caring. Most people would rather look away.

The Insight

People are more likely to change when they feel connected to something, not blamed by it.

The Idea

A Kinder Plate. Give every saved animal a name, a dream, and a future worth choosing Beyond Meat for.

Campaign Manifesto

Simon wants to be president.

Carly wants to be an astronaut.

Benjamin just wants to wait tables.

A Kinder Plate gives the animals behind our food something factory farming never does: a future.

It’s easier to save someone when you know who you’re saving.
