Is there a decision as a CEO that you regret or wish you could've done better?

I'm pretty sure CEOs measure success in numbers of unit solds, or profits.

I've sampled my fair share of fake meat and some are pretty good, but facon is one i'm always disappointed with even if they taste alright.

I think it comes down to how the layers of fat and muscle tissue are organized in a slice of bacon. When you cook it the fat melts partially and the bacon cooks in it's grease. Plus the asymetry in shrinking between the 2 tissu makes the bacon wavy and make the cooking uneven in a pan, resulting in bits that are crunchy and bits that are tender.

With plant based, what I've sampled can have a pretty good taste (I'm fond of those using a bit of liquid smoke) and sometimes part of the texture (you mentioned koji), but although the strips looks like they have a dark and light streaks in them, nothing I've seen has that fatty part. None of them also melt and cook in their juice, they tend to be rather dry.

Is your product any different? Is there an attempt at recreating the fat/muscle layers, or does your focus on healthy food means that's not in your interest?

I want to eat ethically and ecologically. But, as you can tell, i love bacon.

Dev cycle for AAA games is much closer to 4 years than 2, although the amount of people working on the project may vary a lot during development.
