They have a backpack full of hundreds of seedlings and literally put a seedling in with every couple of steps. They have a shovel in hand that gets pushed into the earth with one foot as you step forward, you bend over and put the seedling in, followed by pulling out the shovel and stepping with the other foot on the earth around the seedling to set it in tight. It's very boring, rapid, and repetitive work, usually under very buggy and hot, wet, or cold conditions.

While I appreciate your point, I also appreciate that the market they're breaking into is probably rife with people who has misleading perspectives on GMOs. If that's what it takes to bring good meatless alternatives to market, then I'm certainly fine with that.

It's much easier sitting than standing. Sitting your butt cheeks are naturally spread. Just reach from behind. Standing your butt cheeks are closer together and you're more likely to smear.

So the real question is, how many standers have skid marks vs sitters?

Maybe - maybe not. Perhaps 18 year old women interested in sleeping with 34 year old guys are more likely to be promiscuous and careless with sexual protection. Or perhaps not. Apparently I'm quite indecisive about this.

It's not just an anti-capitalism movement. It's an ethical issue of privatisation of natural resources necessary for life, and nestle has been front and centre to making the poor pay for a resource they've always been able to freely access and that no one had traditionally owned.
